"Underlying this report are the guidelines of the Stockholm Programme and the path for which the Treaty of Lisbon paved the way. It takes the view that EU security policy must be anchored to a specific EU rule of law, subject to oversight at European level. That is the starting point for developing an ‘EU internal security strategy’ that protects the EU from ‘terrorism and other threats’. Against the current backdrop, many of the possible implications of this vision are clear. This is all the truer when we consider that ‘all security policy must include a prevention component, which is particularly essential in a period in which economic and social inequalities are growing’. It continues, however, by suggesting soon afterwards that ‘EU security measures (...) have to (...) focus on targeted law enforcement and intelligence activities with proven capacity to lower crime rates and prevent terrorist attacks’. Despite a few assertions on human rights and the principle of subsidiarity, the entire report is along the lines of a drift towards security and repression that does not help to tackle effectively the causes of terrorism. The Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left has been stressing its opposition to this vision for a long time. We voted against."@en1
