The resolution tabled by the Right and by the ‘socialists’ ‘wholeheartedly’ welcomes the ‘improvement in transatlantic relations’ ahead of the EU/USA summit due to take place in Washington on 20 June, and the International Conference on Iraq, jointly arranged by the USA and the EU on 22 June. It seeks to give continuity to the dangerous objectives enshrined in the so-called ‘European Constitution’ and in the ‘European Security Strategy’.
They then reaffirm the need for ‘cooperation between the transatlantic partners based on a sound institutional structure’, to ‘resolve high-level political issues such as decisions regarding the use of force and issues regarding world order’, ‘on the clear assumption that working together brings more benefits for each partner than working in different, or indeed opposite, directions’.
Without concealing contradictions (rivalries), the resolution calls for partnership on the so-called ‘fight against terrorism’, on the ‘non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and the use of nuclear energy’, on relations with China, India, Japan, Latin America and Russia, on the situation in Ukraine, Lebanon and Kyrgyzstan, on negotiations at the World Trade Organisation and on the reform of the UN.
It also stresses that NATO should become ‘a genuine partnership of equals’ and calls for ‘a closer relationship between NATO and the EU’, which will strengthen relations between the EU and the USA.
