"As we said at the time of the vote at first reading, the problem with using civilian products and technologies for military purposes is that there is no approach to it that does not become tied up with controlling exports of what are known as dual use products and related services. There is no doubt that this is important. It is also important to increase the transparency of the relevant processes and to enable democratic scrutiny of them. However, it is the very consistency of other EU policies with the objectives of this regulation that are at stake. In addition to our continued disagreement with the regulation, we would highlight, for example, the joint research projects financed by the Seventh Framework Research Programme, especially those that took place with the participation of Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd., manufacturer of the unmanned aircraft that continue to be used as veritable machines of death. There is also a need for rigorous assessment of the possible dual civilian/military use of the results of these programmes."@en1
