We demand the withdrawal of all U.S. military bases from the territory of EU Member States and we demand that military spending be used for civilian purposes in order to achieve the Millennium Development Goals"

Arnaud Danjean said: "In this context, the aim of this Report is not so much to fix a doctrine as to deliver a roadmap, which will evolve, for the new institutions currently being set up, who have to learn to work together to make the EU credible, efficient and visible in the area of security and defence"

Arnaud Danjean said: "The EU's autonomy in the area of security and defence is the ability of Europeans to act in times of crises where NATO cannot intervene (as in the case of Georgia), and it is the unique ability of Europeans to deploy civilian and military tools for crisis management, unparalleled with other international organisations"

Gabriele Albertini said: "EU foreign and security policy has to become more ambitious and the European Parliament must be adequately involved in this process in line with its newly-acquired 'Lisbon' powers. With this objective, our Assembly has to foster a regular, systematic and effective relationship with the new Vice-President/High Representative, who is subject to a collective vote of consent by the European Parliament"

Gabriele Albertini said: "Several challenges anticipate a crucial role for us in the coming months: the setting-up of the new European External Action Service (EEAS) is of the utmost importance for EU foreign policy and the European Parliament has to play its role in terms of democratic and budgetary scrutiny. The European External Action Service has to be the EU's operational instrument to implement its foreign policy and enough funds have to be allocated from the EU budget to meet this objective" "The European Parliament should establish a continuous dialogue with the Council and the Commission at all levels to develop the best formulation, financing, implementation and monitoring of the EU External Action Service"

Gabriele Albertini concluded: "The EU needs to be more determined if we want to successfully tackle several strategic priorities, to which the European Parliament can make essential contributions, such as a common European external energy policy, stability in the Western Balkans, the transatlantic partnership as the cornerstone of the EU's external actions, strengthening global stability and security and political and economic cooperation with the EU's neighbouring countries"
