"The demands contained in the minority opinion on Mr Brok’s report, tabled by MEPs from the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left, are an excellent list of steps that the EU must not take at risk of becoming not only irrelevant but above all vulnerable: secede from NATO, abandon the military component and cut defence spending, close all military bases in Europe, disarm fully and abstain from interventionist policies whenever the main instruments of international law and the most relevant international bodies so recommend. Fortunately the majority of this Parliament thinks differently, does not abstain from seeking to protect its citizens and recognises that the transatlantic partnership that saved us from Sovietism is the best guarantee of common security. The EU cannot therefore exempt itself from seeking to assume a more leading, consistent and coherent role at this level. This requires pragmatism and rigour but also ambition."@en1
