"The Communist Party of Greece (KKE) voted against the report on the Common Security and Defence Policy because it signals a reinforcement of the EU’s reactionary characteristics and an extension of its imperialist wars throughout the planet, in line with NATO’s new strategic dogma. The report criticises the Community institutions for their failure to make full use of the EU’s complete range of military resources. The imperialist war of the EU, the US and NATO in Libya is being used to promote the ‘pooling and sharing’ of equipment for operations on an even more murderous scale against the people. The report calls for an increase in military operations and their funding by the Instrument for Stability and the European Development Fund; the formation of a permanent EU Army General Staff; immediate use of the EU battlegroups and an upgrade of the European Defence Organisation. It also demands a faster move towards enhanced military cooperation (the Weimar initiative), interventions by ‘coalitions of the willing’ and joint armament programmes which lead to centralisation of the war industry. The EU is stepping up the intervention in Syria and reinforcing Israel’s attacks on the Palestinian people – a bridgehead to the imperialist plans for intervention in Iran and control of wealth-generating resources and exploitation of the people. The EU is an imperialist alliance of monopolies and the enemy of peoples in the Member States and throughout the world."@en1
