"Mr President, I read with great interest the Swedish Presidency’s document on the European External Action Service. Yet my scepticism about this project is undiminished. At all events, I think it sensible of the Swedish Presidency to allow additional time for seeking the right candidates for the new posts, as the High Representative needs to be of the kind of outstanding calibre rare in Europe. Mr President, I am still very concerned about the impact of these new posts on the interinstitutional balance. My fellow Members cannot fail to share my opinion. Unlike them, I am pleased that the external service is to remain outside the Commission. Foreign policy is primarily a task for the Member States and, should it be Europeanised all the same, I would prefer the climate of the Council to that of the Commission. This is exactly what is happening now, despite all our well-intentioned resolutions."@en1
