lpv:translated text	". I support the report drawn up by my fellow countryman and friend Luís Queiró, because I agree with the need to adopt measures that will enable us to establish favourable conditions for developing a competitive and viable European defence equipment industry. Savings and added value can and must be found in the field of defence, by means of cooperation involving relations of ‘industrial and technological interdependence’ that help to ensure that defence spending is used more effectively and that overlapping is avoided. It is not reasonable that the situation seen in all the Member States of the European Union should continue, when their defence spending amounts to 50% of what the United States invests in order to obtain the equivalent of only 10% of the military capacities of that country, which is an ally of ours. The inadequacy of the means harnessed by the countries of the EU as a whole is not desirable either for Europe or for our allies in NATO. It is worth referring, moreover, to the greater responsibilities for managing civilian and military crises that the EU will have under the ESDP."@en1
