This resolution, proposed by our group, critically questions the Passenger Name Record (PNR) Agreement’s legitimacy; the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left is calling on the Court of Justice of the European Union to rule on the legality thereof. It should be recalled that the Court of Justice ruled before that the first agreement concluded by the Commission was illegal. We consider this agreement yet another act of EU subordination to the US, which is using the so-called ‘war on terror’ as a pretext for drifting further along the path of security and persecution; this path is no stranger to attempts to criminalise struggle and social protest, particularly at a time when the crisis of capitalism and its effects are especially pronounced. The majority of air passengers will not know what PNRs are: a register for identifying passengers. Moreover, they will not know how this register is currently used or the uses to which this agreement paves the way. With its important intervention in this debate, then, the GUE/NGL Group is making an incalculable contribution to reporting the content and consequences of this report, which is essential to boosting the necessary struggle and rejection of this intolerable attack on the public’s rights, freedoms and guarantees."@en1
