EU strategic defence and security partnerships
GroenLinks-PvdA is voor het rapport omdat het degelijke en waardevolle aanbevelingen over het belang van partnerschappen op dit cruciale geopolitieke moment. We zijn het echter niet eens met de formuleringen in het rapport over de EU-VS relatie die de strategische realiteit niet langer weerspiegelen. Een recente reeks ongefundeerde acties van de regering-Trump heeft het partnerschap tussen de EU en de VS tot in de kern ondermijnd en dit rapport geeft dat onvoldoende weer. Bovendien verwijst het rapport naar de "instrumentalisering van migratie" als een "belangrijk veiligheidsrisico", wat het risico opzettelijk overdrijft. Bovendien roept het rapport in dit kader op tot meer steun voor grensbeheer. Dit moet wat GL-PvdA betreft altijd mensenrechten respecteren en geen vrijbrief zijn voor misstanden aan de grens. We wijzen maatregelen die het voor vluchtelingen en asielzoekers moeilijker maken om bescherming te zoeken in de EU af.
Drones and new systems of warfare – the EU‘s need to adapt to be fit for today‘s security challenges
GL-PvdA supports this report, as it offers valuable perspectives on adapting the Member States’ armed forces, EU programmes and institutions to challenges in relation to the integration of drones, anti-drone measures and other innovative systems of warfare. The geopolitical situation and swift changes in global alliances merit supporting the overall report. However, GL-PvdA explicitly distances itself from the Frontex references in paragraphs 39, 323 and 324. We strongly oppose this report’s language advocating for an of Frontex mandate expansion, to include military capabilities and tasks, which dangerously blurs the line between defence and border management. Due to previous human right abuses by Frontex, affording quasi-military powers entails significant risks, and requires a radical shift in its modus operandi, oversight, and legal framework. While limited information exchange between Frontex and armed forces, in line with data protection and fundamental rights obligations, may be pertinent, the mandate for territorial defence must remain the exclusive responsibility of our armed forces, that have clearly defined democratic and legal frameworks. Moreover, the European Commission foresees a revision of the Frontex Regulation in 2026. Taking a Parliamentary position on such a sensitive matter is premature.
