"A European defence sector is essential for ensuring not only Europe’s own security and the survival of its social model, but also its credibility on the international scene. However, the crisis has led the governments of the Member States to make cuts in their defence budgets. That is why it is urgent and necessary to organise our defence by making economies of scale. In order to remain competitive and effective, we need to improve our synergies, pool our capabilities and develop effective strategies which will enable the EU to manage the crises in Libya, the Horn of Africa and elsewhere. There must be deeper cooperation between the EU and NATO. The European Defence Agency must be given a bigger budget. Europe can only be a staunch ally of the United States and a reliable partner for China if, as indicated by Pierre Defraigne, it acquires autonomy in foreign policy."@en1
