".
We wish, once again, to state our total condemnation of the terrorist acts witnessed in the United States and, once again, pay respect to the suffering and the struggle of the victims’ families and of the American people and call for the fight against terrorism not to contribute to creating more victims.
The fight against international terrorism will only be totally effective if it is carried out under the auspices of the United Nations and this is why we specifically reject the use of Article 5 of the NATO Treaty, which runs the risk of dragging the European Union and the international community into a spiral of violence with incalculable consequences. It is also our view that the fight against terrorism, which is, of course, necessary, must not be used as a pretext to undermine individuals’ fundamental rights, freedoms and protection under the law, or affect essential aspects of the sovereignty of the European Union’s Member States, including militarisation.
What we do feel is important is that, in parallel with the fight against international terrorism, we pursue the fight against money laundering, including the abolition of tax havens.
Our vote, therefore, reflects our profound disagreement with some of the joint resolution’s main aspects, voted for by a majority in plenary, although we support most of the remaining points."@en1
