".
I voted in favour of the report before us, because I identify with its broad thrust, both in terms of what are – and should be – the main grounds for concern at international level, and in terms of what the EU’s priorities should be in this regard.
Although I do not subscribe entirely to some of the points that it makes, especially on institutional matters, I feel that the general worldview that emerges here is the right one. I also believe that the EU’s international role depends more on practical action and on our ability to understand common concerns than on any discussion of theoretical models. When it comes to external policy, reality is, as a rule, more powerful than any theoretical consideration.
Lastly, I am happy to note that the tone of agreement between the transatlantic partners is on the rise, which strikes me as a vital element on the road to peace, democracy and prosperity in the world."@en1
