"Madam President, a lot has been dutifully praised, while some things have been gently criticised. I sense that our foreign policy consists mainly of moaning about problems and, at most, imposing sanctions where it is easy to do so. I regret the absence of a fully robust, economic, socio-political, geostrategic approach. I should like to illustrate this with the example of Mogadishu. Our warships in Mogadishu have undoubtedly dealt with one of the symptoms in the short-run. However, the roots of piracy – the destruction of the livelihoods of those working in agriculture and fisheries – have not been dealt with. The competitor, China, is happy about this. It secures whole tracts of land for its products and secures, too, the fishing rights, protecting these off the Somali coast. Europe, then, deals with the negative impacts of all of this: mass migration, piracy, humanitarian disasters and the spread of Islamic fundamentalism. That is not how I imagine a common security policy. We need a change of mindset here. I do not even really need an EEAS for that."@en1
