This text invites MEPs to give their blessing to an economic agreement between the European Union and the Chilean State. Once again, commercial concerns are being portrayed as acts of generosity.
We profess that the new association agreement will breath new life into relations between Europe and Latin America at a time when the region is experiencing serious problems. However, it was precisely the actions of the European company predators that brought Argentina to its knees, and people are trying to make us believe that identical economic exchanges will have beneficial results!
There is no reason to doubt that those exchanges will be profitable for the big investors of Europe. But for the Chilean population? A few major wealthy Chilean families will continue to become richer, such as those who have made their fortune from wine. But making those few people richer will not in any way benefit the general population.
The agreement also proposes the benefit of cooperation in the fight against terrorism. As we are talking about a country where one of the major criminals of recent history, Pinochet, is enjoying a peaceful existence with the general indifference of the major authorities, that is another reason to reject this draft recommendation!"@en1
