".
The transatlantic agenda reveals the special interest that exists in an in-depth agreement between the USA and the European Union on the major world economic issues, as is particularly evident in relation to monetarist and neo-liberal policies, policies of centralisation and concentration of wealth and exploitation of workers and peoples, showing greater concern for issues of interest to economic groups and multinationals and neglecting social issues, including health and education, the environment, development and cultural diversity.
An identical situation occurs in relation to so-called security and defence issues and the policy of interference in the internal affairs of peoples, examples of which are cooperation within NATO and the adoption of the new strategic concept, as, moreover, was made quite clear in the war against Yugoslavia. Currently, however, the pretensions of North American imperialism for world hegemony and domination and construction of a ‘new order’ to suit US interests – dismantling the legal and institutional order resulting from the second world war, tackling the UN Charter and international law and rejecting protocols like the Kyoto Protocol, taking on a more aggressive character with the new Bush administration – all this is making the world situation deteriorate. It was in this context, then, that I supported the resolution that our Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left subscribed to on the state of the transatlantic dialogue and I voted against the rest."@en1
