"In general, the Elles report is a very good one. Its main objective is to add to the debate on enhancing relations in a new global context by setting out the Parliament's official position in this area.
We consider that the strategy adopted in drawing up this report was reasonably effective. The rapporteur from time to time stresses, with a certain regularity, the concept of "new global challenges". This applies both to security and to the economy, thus justifying the present need to reinforce transatlantic relations.
Nevertheless, this report, and thus the resolution contained in it, make a clear appeal for the communitarisation of the ESDP, as in Paragraph 9 of the resolution. I do not agree with that, and I consider that the criticism of the foreign policy of the United States is inappropriate. This criticism does not contribute to the climate of confidence needed to resolve these questions openly, nor to reinforcing the indisputable common heritage that unites and should continue to unite Europe and the United States. That is why I have abstained."@en1
