lpv:translated text	". The report which we have examined is a monument to warmongering rhetoric which reveals the real intentions of the ΕU to share the role of global policeman with the USA, while at the same time donating billions to the military/industrial complex. The text, without any trace of shame, laments the reduction in military orders after the end of the cold war. It is concerned about the 'failure of several Member States to spend more on defence', which 'may jeopardise the cohesion of ΝΑΤΟ', which 'remains not only a fundamental guarantee for the stability and security of the Euro-Atlantic area, but also an essential framework for developing joint operations'. It therefore calls for the development of a 'European defence equipment industry which is competitive and viable' in keeping with the decision taken at the Thessaloniki Council, the Solana letter and the European constitution, which obliges everyone to improve their military capabilities. Let this decision be the EC's answer to all those who deceive the world by saying that the ΕU is the guardian of world peace and that the objective of the common defence policy is to safeguard security. For them peace means war and security means repression. Needless to add that the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece condemn the warmongers and voted against the report."@en1
