lpv:translated text	". The resolution before us reflects the contradictions of current relations between the various countries of the EU and the USA. By failing to point out the seriousness of the international situation – of which the most glaring examples are the unacceptable military occupation of Iraq and the impossible situation in Palestine – and by making only mild criticism of the USA, the resolution reaffirms the desire to reach an understanding with the USA to join forces to dominate the world. Once again, the need is stressed for a ‘well-balanced partnership’, the ‘division of tasks’, ‘burden sharing’, creating a ‘community of action’ with common priorities ( the UN, the Middle East, terrorism, the proliferation of WMD, China, Russia and the International Criminal Court), completing the ‘Transatlantic Market’ by 2015’, strengthening NATO and militarising the EU as its ‘European pillar’, developing Transatlantic defence companies and markets, and so forth. It is significant that, at a time when the Spanish Government has taken the decision to withdraw its troops from Iraq, the majority of Parliament chooses not to adopt a position. This is understandable. At a time when the major powers are seeking to overcome their differences by legitimising the occupation of Iraq with a UN resolution, the resistance of the Iraqi people to the occupying forces and the clearly expressed will of the Spanish people are obstacles to overcoming those differences."@en1
