"Defence is certainly one of the areas of national budgets most subject to cuts during the ongoing economic and debt crisis. However, the trend towards cuts in military spending is limiting the European Union’s ability to effectively shoulder its peacekeeping responsibilities.
In this context, greater coordination among Member States is a necessity, since uncoordinated budget cuts could, in fact, result in the complete loss of certain military capabilities in Europe. Member States must seek to exchange information, as appropriate, and enhance transparency on current and forthcoming defence budget cuts. This vote in favour highlights the need for joint support for technological development in the sector and the priority of establishing the European Defence Technological and Industrial Base."@en1
