"Mr President, I voted for the resolution because the EU-US partnership is strategically important and must be supported by an ambitious agenda. The summit on 28 November provides an opportunity to identify common approaches for tackling current challenges. I am confident that it will be utilised. Economically, a strong signal is needed about implementing the G20 decisions. Promoting trade and avoiding protectionist trends are important factors for exiting the crisis and achieving sustainable economic recovery. However, I do not support the adoption of a global financial transaction tax.
Particular attention must still be focused on security aspects. The recent IAEA report on Iran highlights that joint efforts on nuclear non-proliferation need to be stepped up.
At the same time, I hope that the summit will allow progress to be made on waiving US visas for citizens in all EU Member States."@en1
