"I voted against this specific report because, in essence, it concerns the financing of mechanisms which systematically undermine human rights. Once again, with the same hypocrisy, we are supposedly increasing the funding needed to deal with the problems of refugees, immigrants and local communities whereas, in fact, we are providing more funding for military and repressive mechanisms and unacceptable charter flights crammed with immigrants and refugees being sent back to war zones and wretched living conditions. This hypocritical and delusional action has to stop. With our fences, armies and trenches, not only do we not have democratic Member States and a democratic EU, not only are we undermining international
agreements and human rights; we are also failing to provide a solution to the problem. The aim of financing must be to secure a dignified and equitable standard of living for everyone, by protecting rights and strengthening social cohesion. The aim of financing must be to provide real assistance to developing countries and to combine it with the responsibilities and international role of a peaceable and democratic EU foreign policy because, wherever centres of war, absolutism and poverty are created in the world, refugees and immigrants will leave home."@en1
