lpv:translated text	"As things stand in the European Union, there is no truly common export and transit control system for dual-use items such as nuclear material or chemical and conventional weapons. Decisions on these questions are taken behind closed doors at the Foreign Affairs Council of the EU without open debates, common criteria or the participation of Parliament, which is a legislative body of the EU. It is the case that not even all EU Member States are represented in the organisations that control the export of such dangerous items. The Baltic States, as well as Cyprus, Malta, Slovakia, Slovenia and Romania, for example, are not members of the Missile Technology Control Regime. As a result, decisions taken on trade grounds by one EU Member State may endanger another Member State’s security interests, as we have already experienced. This report supports amendments to European Union legislation in order to create a common EU system for the collection, transmission and storage of authorisations and to oblige the Commission to inform the European Parliament about authorisations which have been issued. On such fundamentally important issues such as foreign and security policy, unambiguous solidarity between EU Member States must be the order of the day. The amendments proposed by the report will introduce an improved, common and transparent system for regulating the export of weapons, nuclear material, missiles and other similar technologies."@en1
