"I am delighted that a very large majority voted in favour of the resolution on the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. Although it is not binding, it does send a strong signal from the EU to its Member States to adopt a strong common position during the international conference, to be held from 2 to 27 July at the UN headquarters, in New York. After four years of negotiations on this treaty, it is time to reach a conclusion. We are calling for this new international treaty to be based on the ‘highest, strongest and clearest possible set of standards’; it must ‘strengthen accountability’ and its implementation ‘must be open and transparent’ with mechanisms to ensure that it meets all reporting and implementation requirements; it must also offer a robust evaluation of the final destination country of a sale, namely, an evaluation that makes the conclusion of a contract subject to compliance with a number of criteria (social and economic criteria, democratic and humanitarian standards)."@en1
