Foreign policy and security
Le PDE plaide pour une politique étrangère et de sécurité européenne plus forte afin de relever les défis mondiaux tels que les cybermenaces et le terrorisme. Nous soutenons une Europe unie, parlant d'une seule voix, défendant la démocratie, les droits de l'homme et développant des partenariats solides avec les pays voisins fondés sur des valeurs communes.
Foreign policy and security
The PDE advocates for a stronger European foreign and security policy to address global challenges such as cyber threats and terrorism. We support a united Europe that speaks with one voice, promotes democracy and human rights, and builds strong partnerships with neighbouring countries based on shared values.
The key is European foreign and security policy, in this new state of the world. This is an imperative that stems from new issues such as “cyber threats” and terrorism. A pooling of the operational resources of the member states’ armed forces and intelligence services is necessary to put an end to waste and inefficiency. Europe has been too absent from recent global upheavals and must speak with one voice on the world stage if it wishes to be heard.
Thus, its external action must be a factor in promoting Europe’s intrinsic values of respect for human rights, democracy and fair economic development. The Union must also strengthen its partnership policy with the countries of the eastern neighbourhood.
We want a Europe with three circles: beyond the countries of the euro zone and the European Union stricto sensu, a “circle of shared interests” with countries wishing to come closer to European standards in terms of human rights, democracy and pluralism, the social market economy and living standards.
