Paragraph 3 a (new)
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3 a. Notes with concern that the use of novichok nerve agent in Salisbury in March 2018 was the first such attack on European soil since WWII and subsequently resulted in a death of a European citizen; urges the European Council to adopt restrictive measures against those responsible for the use and proliferation of chemical weapons;
Amendment 68 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8
Paragraph 8
8. Welcomes the creation of a dedicated title for defence in the Commission’s MFF proposal, and in particular the establishment of a budget line from which the European Defence Fund and Military Mobility projects will be funded; is of the opinion that these decisions will, most probably, call for a centralized management on defence at Commission level; underlines that funding from that budget line should be exclusively spent for defence purposes without politicization as security is indivisible and should be coherent with the capability and infrastructure needs of Member States and in line with the EU’s aspirations for strategic autonomy and making the EU a vital NATO partner;
Amendment 154 #

Paragraph 18
Paragraph 18
18. Welcomes the proposal for a regulation establishing a European Defence Fund and the substantial funding proposed by the European Commission for the next Multiannual Financial Framework; notes that the outcomes of the EDIDP discussions were partly taken duly into consideration and expresses hope that the proposal can be agreed as soon as possible to improve Europe's defence industry and allow for appropriate defence industry collaboration with European NATO allies;
Amendment 159 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 19
Paragraph 19
19. Stresses that EU´s strategic security and defence objectives can only be achieved through the closest coordination of the needs and long-term capability building requirements of both the armed forces and defence industries of the Member States; notes that both the Capability Development Plan (CDP) and the Coordinated Annual Review on Defence (CARD) can make important contributions to the achievement of this goal; considers that the Digital Single Market and other digital capabilities mean that the EU is well placed to lead on boosting Europe's cyber resilience and should work closely with NATO to this end;
Amendment 261 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 37
Paragraph 37
37. Notes, while welcoming the overall progress made in CSDP since the presentation of the Global Strategy, that the parliamentary structures at EU level which have been established at a time when the EU’s level of ambition and level of activity regarding security and defence matters was rather limited, are no longer adequate to provide the necessary parliamentary oversight of a rapidly evolving policy area; therefore, reiterates its previous call to upgrade the Subcommittee of Security and Defence to a full-fledged committee and to provide it with the competences necessary in order to contribute to a comprehensive parliamentary oversight of CSDP including PESCO, the EDA and any other CSDP actions as envisioned by the Treaties; the upgrade from subcommittee to committee should be the consequence of replacing the ad-hoc management of defence and security at Commission level with a more specialized model taking into account the increasing complexity of the effort to be managed;
