"I voted ‘against’ the Brok report, because I consider that it urges the European Parliament and the other Union institutions to subscribe to the militarisation of foreign policy, via the CFSP, to the detriment of a peaceful policy based on cooperation between all EU Member States and third countries, far from dangerous ethnic infighting and political/military intervention. As a member of the Confederal Group of the European United Left/Nordic Green Left, I express my unwavering opinion, in opposition to this report, that the Union should be strictly separated from the NATO war machine, that the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, which has no democratic or ethical credentials, should be dissolved, that Europe should disarm, that immediate and drastic cuts should be made to arms programmes and military spending and that international law and the UN Charter should be respected. The continuing trend by the prevailing forces in the European Union to equate foreign policy with military power and the NATO military machine with the Union’s prospects are both contrary to its declared values and, at the same time, prevent any effort to bring about a Europe and a world of peace, cooperation and solidarity between states and nations."@en1
