". This is a resolution that not only fails to question any of the European Union’s fundamental pillars and policies – its neoliberal capitalist policies, federalism, its increasing militarism – and fails to condemn the harmful consequences of these for the workers and communities in the various countries it actually confirms these guidelines and priorities, and masks their true nature by introducing some social concerns. One example is the resolution’s insistence on the need for the so-called ‘European constitution’. It is reluctant to enter into the debate on the forthcoming financial perspectives (from 2006 onwards) – and this is simply astounding - on the grounds that the European elections are due to be held soon. It welcomes the militarisation of the EU. It does not question the policies of liberalisation – it simply refers to more careful consideration of their ‘possible consequences’. It rejects the proposal for an amendment that proposed a re-evaluation of the Commission’s mandate for the WTO. In short, it gives the Commission yet another role. There is no analysis of the worsening economic and social situation in the various EU countries or any criticism of the policies that have caused this situation. If the truth be told, we could expect nothing else from the political forces that decide, in the EP, in the Commission and in the various governments, on EU policies."@en1
