Convention on the Future of Europe: Statements.

 

One issue we clearly have not come close to sorting out is our relationship with the United States. Sometimes this does not matter. Frequently we have common interests. Frequently the interests of individual European countries – Atlanticist-minded countries and those of us who are not members of NATO – coincide, but we have seen much evidence in the past few weeks of the serious existing dangers and difficulties when they clearly do not coincide, either in terms of what we perceive as being our interests or in what we want to do about them. That is a real problem for us.
