"I and my fellow UKIP MEP’s voted against the resolution on the Mutual Defence Clause because we do not support the further militarisation of the EU. We are also specifically concerned about discussion of the development of a European Defence Union or further activation of other defence provisions contained within the Lisbon treaty. UKIP is in complete support of the French people in their fight against terrorism and offers its condolences for the tragic attacks in Paris last year. However, we do not support the activation of Article 42(7). The UK has strong defence ties with France, through NATO and bilateral agreements between the two countries, such as the Lancaster House Treaties (2010).
My colleagues and I supported Amendment 1 to the resolution on the Mutual Defence Clause because it rejects the activation of Article 42(7) TEU. This should, however, not be interpreted as offering support for any other statements contained within this amendment."@en1
