"This report recommends the change of status of Saint-Barthélemy from an outermost region to a territory associated with the European Union. This means that Saint-Barthélemy will join the eleven British territories associated with the European Union, including the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and the Sandwich Islands.
Saint Barthélemy, like the Falkland Islands and other British territories in the South Atlantic, traces its ties with Europe back to the seventeenth century. While not part of the EU, these territories are indivisibly linked to Europe. This report is about providing support to the various territories associated with the EU. I certainly support the Falkland Islanders in the face of recent aggressive threats from Argentina, and as we mark the thirtieth anniversary of repelling an Argentine invasion, it is vital that we continue to defend the overseas countries and territories that have constitutional ties with our Member States, including the Falklands."@en1
