lpv:translated text	"− The amending budget voted on today represents reinforcement of the budget heading corresponding to ‘management of migration and refugee flows’, increasing and/or extending maritime security operations in the Mediterranean, which are said to be ‘required to cover the additional needs arising from the exceptional and unforeseen increase of migratory flows from Northern Africa’. A substantial proportion of the sum now being mobilised − EUR 30 million in commitments − is for the ‘operational expenditure’ of the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union (Frontex), which is the body responsible for implementing the European Union’s repressive, security-based policy against immigration. This policy obscures the real causes of immigration. The report does not mention, although it should, that the ‘exceptional and unforeseen increase of migratory flows from Northern Africa’ is inextricably linked to the military aggression of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and a number of EU countries in the region, sowing war, destruction and chaos. At a time when the EU’s economic and social crisis is deepening, it is significant and symbolic that this stepping up of support for ‘fortress Europe’ is coming from funds not used on the European Economic Recovery Plan."@en1
