"The report is good in many respects. For example, it is important to point out that a security strategy for the EU is being prepared within the framework of the UN system. The importance of international law is emphasised in quite a few places. It is made clear that, in order to be able to combat the new threats and security risks faced by Europe, there must be political strategies for combating poverty and for climate protection, the protection of human rights and the promotion of democracy and the rule of law.
At the same time, there are things in the report that we cannot accept. We wish to retain the principle of unanimous decision-making in foreign and security policy, and we flatly reject a common defence of the territory of Europe. Moreover, we do not want to see an increase in military resources or the Community’s being given its own defence budget. We are not, therefore, able to vote in favour of the report."@en1
