"Mr President, there are two reasons why I am opposed to the report by Mr Brok and Mr Verhofstadt. First of all, I sense an unhealthy thirst for power among many of my fellow Members. If the European Parliament alone is involved, that is fine, whatever it is involved in. As if Baroness Ashton did not already have her hands full, we are giving her a top-heavy External Action Service on top of that. I am almost beginning to suspect that you are deliberately trying to make the High Representative and her service go off the rails. My second complaint concerns the institutional set-up of this service. The experience of recent months has made it clear that the institutional experiment of having two hats, as it were, has not been an unqualified success. And, as if that were not enough, we are paving the way for a couple of thousand diplomats who will all be wearing two hats. What a spectacle! When will this Parliament realise that the exploitation of the grey area between the Council and the Commission is not working and that it is creating nothing but a lack of clarity and tension between the institutions?"@en1
