"I decided to vote in favour of the report on the European External Action Service (EEAS) and fully support the setting-up of what is a key innovation of the Lisbon Treaty and a historic decision for the future of Europe. Only seven months after the entry into force of the new treaty, together we managed to reach a consensus, securing the political and budgetary accountability of the new service to the European Parliament. This supervisory role will guarantee a truly democratic control of the service, which is of paramount importance to me.
This report will ensure geographical balance as well as better coherence between the different aspects of the EEAS. It is not about duplicating diplomatic services within the EU, but about strengthening the EU’s diplomatic services. Such an agreement is clear evidence of the European Union’s commitment to gathering its force and promoting its values in a more effective way. It will allow the EU to exert a real influence in the international arena. This is a chance for the European Union but also for its Member States."@en1
