"Mr President, the European External Action Service has been established on the basis of the Treaty of Lisbon, which was adopted without a referendum, in other words, without the citizens of the European Union being able to express their will. The draft resolution leaves many blanks to be completed and lacks many details. It is with unease that we observe the attempt made by certain countries to appropriate the most important positions and diplomatic missions. The lack of a conciliatory approach in the distribution of jobs, particularly with regard to the geographical criterion, as well as the isolation of the EEAS from national parliaments, are a cause of serious concern. The Committee on Foreign Affairs rejected an amendment which would have enabled the parliaments of Member States to be fully involved in control and supervision of common foreign and security policy as well as security and defence policy. Depriving the EEAS the legitimisation of national parliaments demonstrates a move towards creating a special club and alienating it from the nations of Europe. Furthermore, we need to consider whether, in the context of a financial crisis, duplication of the work of many of the EU offices of individual Member States is really necessary."@en1
