"With this resolution, the majority in this House are reiterating unacceptable militarist and interventionist positions. The resolution supports prolonging and strengthening the mandate of EU NAVFOR Atalanta and increasing coordination with the NATO operation to combat piracy. However, it obscures this phenomenon’s real causes. It obscures the fact that a number of European countries, the US and NATO are responsible for the serious problems facing the peoples of Somalia and other regional countries, and that these problems are at the root of the so-called piracy. We are well aware of the interest aroused by the region. It is rich in natural resources – particularly fisheries – and important for international trade, with the Horn of Africa and the Gulf of Aden linking the Suez Canal and the Indian Ocean, which is the fastest route between Asia and Europe. The solution to the region’s problems involves respecting Somalia’s sovereignty over its resources and its exclusive economic area, the immediate withdrawal of the EU and NATO mission, and an immediate break with the so-called structural adjustment policies of the IMF and the World Bank, which, since the 1990s, have led to the collapse of the country’s fragile economy, jeopardising its food sovereignty and security."@en1
