lpv:translated text	"Almost six months to the day after the events of 11 September, one can only be extremely surprised that, in the progress report on transatlantic relations which has been drawn up by the Presidency of the European Union, such a relatively small part has been devoted to the lessons to be drawn from those events. One might have thought that the tragedy of 11 September would prompt the countries of Europe to engage in some soul-searching on the reasons why the international Islamic terrorist network chose Europe as a location for the bases from which they struck at the United States. So what particular facilities do our countries offer, and how can these be rooted out? What consequences should be drawn from the exploitation of asylum procedures by terrorist networks, etc.? Our police forces have certainly worked hard in close cooperation with the U.S. authorities. Their enquiries have revealed the extent to which terrorists have set up bases in our countries. When it comes to analysing the significance of 11 September, on the other hand, a considerable gulf is developing between the two sides of the Atlantic, with one side regarding it as an isolated operation and the other as a manifestation of the new global terrorist scene, dominated by hyperterrorism. The communication from the Council indicates this. The effective measures to deal with the nature and scale of the common threat is not its main concern and a very minimalist response seems to be envisaged. There is only a vague mandate to draw up, sometime or other, an agreement on mutual judicial assistance. This, Mr President, is a strange and dangerous divergence which may well seriously encumber transatlantic relations and our own security."@en1
