lpv:translated text	"Mr President, for the sake of avoiding excessive sameness, here comes a different position. The European Security Strategy states that ‘the first line of defence against new threats will often be abroad’. In no way does the Kuhne report dissent from this. The European Security Strategy is meant to be binding on all EU Member States. It is meant to commit EU military policy more and more to planning for pre-emptive warfare. The Kuhne report calls for even more rearmament in order to ensure that the EU, relying on NATO capacities, can intervene militarily across the globe. According to what we have heard, the EU is meant to become a global player, and primarily in military terms. It is for precisely this reason that my group has produced a minority opinion. On the one hand, it is asserted that there is no military build-up in the European Union; on the other, as we have heard, everything is being done to rearm, including drawing up plans for the EU to wage ‘regional wars to secure raw materials’. The EU’s Constitutional Treaty, which I hope the French will scupper, its Security Strategy and the ‘European Defence Paper’ stand for a Europe characterised by rearmament and the prospect of future wars. Take a serious look at these criticisms. Polemics have had their day. As you will see in France, they only trip you up."@en1
