".
EU policy towards the other countries of the Mediterranean is becoming more and more aggressive. Its basic objective is to turn these countries into its satellites, penetrate their markets and exploit their people and wealth.
To be specific, the ΕU is calling for alignment on issues of 'terrorism', judicial and police cooperation, even participation in its actions within the framework of foreign policy and defence policy, offering training for the necessary political and military staff. At the same time, it is demanding privatisation and liberalisation, even in the service sector, while promising investments solely in the private sector. As if that were not enough, it is trying to force through immigrant expulsion agreements.
Under these circumstances, talk of dialogue between civilisations sounds ridiculous and we wonder what purpose the proposed parliamentary conference will serve.
The European Parliament resolution sticks to this line and, while giving lessons about human rights, says not a word about their flagrant violation in Turkey or about the occupation of Cyprus, while Palestine is dealt with in the usual way of sitting on the fence between sacrificer and victim. It is more than clear that the development of the Mediterranean will not come about through cooperation with the ΕU.
That is why the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece voted against the resolution."@en1
