"ASEAN is an extremely important international organisation. Its furtherance of the objectives of cooperation on economic growth and social progress, coupled with the promotion of peace and stability, make it a centre of power and influence in Southeast Asia. It is also currently a very good trading partner for the Union. I think accession to the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation is in our vital interests if our ambition is to reach our potential for a political role in this part of the world. Countries which unquestionably already are world powers are parties to the Treaty – the United States, China, Russia and Japan – and this very clearly shows how much their interests are at stake in this region. On the initiative of Brussels, the signatories have introduced a key change which enables an international organisation such as the European Union as a whole to accede to the Treaty. In view of these points, I am absolutely sure that this is the right move and very hopeful that we will achieve tangible political and economic benefits, and I consent to the accession of the European Union to this Treaty."@en1
