". Europe must become a political Union too, and not just an economic one. For this reason the Italian Communists offer and propose very fast enlargement to the candidate countries in order to build a great Europe based on its cultures and its best democratic traditions. In this context, once all opposition between the countries of Western Europe and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe has been left behind, the military organisation of NATO will also be left behind – in fact it will then be completely anachronistic – in favour of a European military force wholly independent of the United States, with which Europe must maintain close, friendly, but no longer subordinate relations. The European military force should be totally European, democratically controlled by parliamentary resolutions, effective and efficient. If such a military force had existed, through the history and traditions of the peoples that compose it, NATO’s war against Yugoslavia would not have happened. That is why we voted for the Lalumière report, but with many reservations and objections concerning the aggressive tone found in some parts of the resolution which, in any case, we shall fight to avoid."@en1
