"In terms of space-related development, we have no doubts as to the importance of enhanced cooperation between Member States and other European countries – most importantly Russia, which has an invaluable wealth of research – and the whole world. Such cooperation should be aimed at exploiting this knowledge in order to solve problems and address current needs, with a view to development, social progress and human well-being, as well as peaceful ends. The report advocates a European space strategy based on a set of programmes such as Galileo, the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service, Single European Sky ATM Research and Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES). One of the objectives of the latter is ‘global monitoring for the environment and security’, which will be achieved through Earth observation and the ‘extraction of precise and useful data’, as well as operations involving ‘border surveillance’, as well as to ‘support EU External Action, maritime surveillance, complex emergencies, humanitarian aid and civil protection’. The resolution also calls for ‘strengthening the ‘security’ component of the GMES programme’. Behind these words lies the real danger that the monitoring-related information obtained from space will be used to carry out military operations, in addition to the clear aim of going further down the path of the obsession with security, violating the fundamental freedoms of citizens. We voted against for these reasons."@en1
