"This is a highly political report, which sets out a series of views that are very far removed from reality and overly optimistic in its assessment of the Arab Spring – the biggest political transformation since the fall of the Berlin Wall. Mr Rinaldi strongly criticises the Union’s diplomatic weakness in North Africa, but fails to remember that the absence and severe limitations of the High Representative do not only apply in that area, but highlight the lack of a European foreign policy. I am against the report since it includes some problematic passages, such as the call to increase European Investment Bank financing and aid, particularly for the small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) of the Southern Mediterranean, and the proposal on visa facilitation for businesspeople, as used for Turkey. Since the report barely addresses the matter of a common commercial policy that would protect our businesses, I voted against."@en1
