lpv:translated text	"Earlier this year I heard Mr Solana saying enthusiastically that there are many areas outside the territory of the European Union where action can be taken. His new role has put an end to the traditional neutrality of Ireland, Sweden, Finland and Austria. After 1945, defence was taken to mean the defence of one’s own territory against foreign attackers. So a country’s defensive army did not have any tasks beyond the territory of the state that had established it. NATO abided by this formula during the first 50 years of its existence. The United States army moved into Vietnam, the Dominican Republic and Grenada, whilst France and England tried to gain control of the Suez Canal, but countries did not take action as part of NATO outside their own territory. That did not happen until the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact – which for years had justified the existence of NATO – had collapsed. My party, the Socialist Party of the Netherlands, rejects any attempt on the part of the European Union to imitate the superpower America. I cannot go along with the aims Mr Brok hopes to achieve via his report."@en1
