Paragraph 1 – introductory phrase
1. Recalls that the European Security Strategy (ESS) and the report on its implementation highlight the key threats facing the European Union: following alleged 'key threats' facing the European Union can and must not be solved in a military way either by the European Union or by any other alliance or state; furthermore, disapproves of the cynical listing of the 'impact of climate change' as a 'key threat', reminds the European Union and its Member States that they are, together with the United States of America, highly responsible for climate change, calls on the Council and Commission to fight the actual causes of climate change, destabilisation of states and regional conflicts, i.e. the capitalist mode of production, the exploitation of the Global South and the neo-liberal economic and trade policy; considers that a responsible position for the EU to adopt towards the world would be to redirect the budgets currently earmarked for military expenditure and the EDA towards covering the needs of the peoples of the EU, the developing countries and less privileged countries fuelled by the global economic crisis and committing itself to nuclear disarmament;
