"The opinions of Javier Solana and of EU representatives and supporting parties have put paid to any illusions about the EU’s position with regard to Iran and the Middle East generally.
These opinions prove that the EU is in favour of promoting the US-NATO plan for ‘democratising the Middle East’, which aims to subject nations and peoples to control of their wealth-producing resources. The assurances on behalf of the IAEA and the CIA’s report on Iran’s non-military use of nuclear energy are deliberately being ignored by the EU, which is stepping up the pressure with sanctions against Iran, and is intensifying propaganda to accustom public opinion to the idea of a war against Iran. Furthermore, Javier Solana has clearly linked the situation in Lebanon and the wider area with the issue of nuclear weapons - without, however, making any reference to Israel’s nuclear weapons.
In the wider area of the Middle East, we are witnessing the emergence of imperialist aggression and clashes over the sharing out of markets. The victims of this are, among others, the peoples of Palestine, Iran and Lebanon. The only answer to these new aggressive, warlike plans is for citizens to resist imperialism and harbour no illusions about the role of the EU.
Those who are in a position to decide on issues of human rights and their violation are the citizens of each country; they should not allow themselves to become an excuse for another Iraq."@en1
