lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I happen to have been at the United Nations and Security Council yesterday, in snowy New York. I support this UN multilateral treaty on controlling conventional arms sales both in general terms and because it has been signed by the UK. It is vital here to stress the difference between the United Nations, which is intergovernmental – i.e. agreements are made between the governments of 193 individual nations, 154 of which have signed this agreement – and the European Union, which is supra- or trans-national – i.e. it cuts above or across nation states. I do not agree with that approach. Indeed, the official UN brochure I have here says that the UN is not a super-state, nor is it a world government. The states members of the UN remain sovereign and equal and have no intention of delegating this sovereignty to any supra-national entity. The point is that, as long as this report does acknowledge decision-making is done at national state level, then it is an advance."@en1
