"The Greek Communist Party voted against the report, because it promotes an even more aggressive foreign policy and defence policy and calls for an increase in military and non-military EU operations. The new position of ‘EU special representative for human rights’ is designed to provide cover for EU interventions, such as the European Democracy Foundation, that will use secret funds to finance ‘dissenters’ and parties. The report calls for an even more aggressive role for the EU in the Western Balkans, the Middle East, Central Asia, the Horn of Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa. It supports the need to strengthen the European Defence Agency, pooling and sharing programmes, full militarisation of the EU Horizon 2020 research programme and common defence measures. It provides full support for the imperialist intervention in Syria, by calling for additional measures in the name of the ‘right of civilians to protection from slaughter by the regime’, as it did in the war in Libya. It tries to pass this new pretext for imperialist interventions off as a UN ‘principle’. The report calls for the EU to come fully into line with NATO in Afghanistan and elsewhere and with the decisions by the Chicago Summit in 2012 and fully covers NATO plans for the so-called anti-missile defence shield and nuclear weapons in Europe."@en1
