meni, da boj proti terorizmu in širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje ostajata največja varnostna izziva za obe partnerici; zato poudarja potrebo, da obe strani okrepita svoje sodelovanje na tem področju in da podpreta vlogo, ki jo morajo imeti ZN pri spopadanju s temi izzivi;
Believes that fighting terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction remain the greatest security challenges for both partners; stresses therefore the need for both sides to reinforce their collaboration in this field and to support the role the UN must play in combating both challenges;
verjame, da je treba z ZDA opredeliti skupen in enoten okvir, s katerim bi se zavarovale obveze, ki so potrebne v posebnem partnerstvu med EU in ZDA v boju proti terorizmu, in v katerem bi se lahko obravnavali tudi vsi vidiki, ki zadevajo prosto gibanje oseb med EU in ZDA; meni, da je treba s tega vidika okrepiti stike med Evropskim parlamentom in Kongresom;
Believes that it is necessary to define with the US a common and shared framework to safeguard the guarantees that are needed in the special EU-US partnership in the fight against terrorism, which could also deal with all aspects concerning the free movement of persons between the EU and the US; considers that, in this perspective, contacts should be strengthened between Parliament and Congress;
priznava, da je izmenjava podatkov in informacij uporabno orodje v mednarodnem boju proti terorizmu in z njim povezanemu kriminalu, vendar poudarja, da bi močna jamstva za varstvo podatkov olajšala izmenjavo podatkov in obenem zagotavljala varstvo zasebnosti ter da bi morala takšna izmenjava podatkov v vsakem primeru temeljiti na enem ali več mednarodnih sporazumih, ki bi bili po strukturi podobni sporazumu o pravosodnem sodelovanju v kazenskih zadevah in izročitvah med ES in ZDA, ki ga trenutno preučuje Kongres;
Recognises that sharing of data and information is a valuable tool in the international fight against terrorism and related crime, but stresses that strong data protection guarantees would facilitate data sharing while ensuring protection of privacy, and that such data sharing would in any case need to be based on one or more international agreements similar in structure to the EC/US agreement on judicial cooperation in criminal matters and extradition which is currently being examined by Congress;
močno obžaluje, da je zaradi sporazuma o evidenci letalskih potnikov, memoranduma SWIFT in obstoja ameriškega sistema ATS ( Automated Targeting System ) nastopilo stanje pravne negotovosti, kar zadeva potrebna jamstva o varstvu podatkov pri izmenjavi in prenosu podatkov med EU in ZDA za zagotavljanje javne varnosti ter še posebej za preprečevanje terorizma in boj proti njemu; poudarja, da bi bilo treba podatke izmenjevati po potrebi v skladu z obstoječim sporazumom med EU in ZDA o vzajemni pravni pomoči in izročitvah ter v skladu z zakonodajo ES in EU s področja varstva podatkov; meni, da mora izmenjava osebnih podatkov potekati na ustrezni pravni podlagi, ki je povezana z jasnimi pravili in pogoji, urejati pa jo mora tudi ustrezno varstvo zasebnosti in državljanskih svoboščin posameznih državljanov;
Strongly regrets that the agreements on PNR, SWIFT and the existence of the US Automated Targeting System (ATS) have led to a situation of legal uncertainty with regard to the necessary data protection guarantees for data sharing and transfer between the EU and the US for the purposes of ensuring public security and, in particular, preventing and fighting terrorism; stresses that data should be exchanged where necessary in accordance with the existing EU-US agreement on mutual legal assistance and extradition and in compliance with EC and EU data protection legislation; believes that the sharing of personal data must take place on a proper legal basis, linked to clear rules and conditions, and must be covered by adequate protection of the privacy and civil liberties of individual citizens;

poudarja dejstvo, da bodo številni ukrepi, zajeti v zakonodajnem predlogu za izboljšanje zakona o ameriški varnosti iz leta 2007 ( Improving America's Security Act of 2007 ), po sprejetju v kongresu ZDA neposredno vplivali na države EU, zlasti glede policijskega in sodnega sodelovanja v boju proti terorizmu in pri varstvu temeljnih pravic in jamstev;
Highlights the fact that many of the measures contained in the legislative proposal 'Improving America's Security Act of 2007', when adopted by the US Congress, will have a direct impact on EU countries, in particular concerning police and judicial cooperation in the fight against terrorism and the protection of fundamental rights and guarantees;
pozdravlja zavzetost podpredsednika Komisije Franca Frattinija pri nastajanju evroatlantskega okvira za sodelovanje v boju proti mednarodnemu terorizmu z usklajenimi pravili o varstvu človekovih pravic in temeljnih svoboščin; prosi Komisijo, naj nadaljuje s tem prizadevanji in v to pobudo v celoti vključi Parlament;

Recalls the resolutions of Parliament calling for the closure of the Guantánamo Bay detention centre; calls on the Council and Commission to urge the US Government to find a mechanism that will facilitate the charging or releasing of detainees in accordance with international law; is concerned that the very existence of the Guantánamo Bay detention centre continues to send out a negative signal as to how the fight against terrorism is being pursued; urges the Council to issue a clear and forceful declaration calling on the US Government to put an end to the practice of extraordinary arrests and renditions and that the US Government be asked for clarifications regarding the existence of alleged secret prisons outside US territory;

Reiterates the view that NATO, which remains an important tie between many European countries and the US and a guarantor of European security, should develop its potential as a transatlantic forum for political debate in a true partnership of equals;
poziva ZDA, naj podvojijo prizadevanja za posvetovanja in pojasnila o načrtovanem sistemu raketne obrambe v okviru Nata, kar bi zavezništvu in Evropi omogočilo, da ostaneta povezana, se upreta tujemu pritisku in se izogneta nesporazumom na različnih varnostnih področjih; poudarja pomen posvetovanj o sistemu v okviru sveta Nato-Rusija; poudarja, da bi moral biti sistem ZDA usklajen in medoperabilen z Natovim sistemom protiraketnega ščita (NATO's Theatre Ballistic Missile Defence (TBMD) system);

vztraja, da pogajanja o čezatlantskem trgu brez ovir ne smejo voditi v uskladitev in oslabitev socialnih, okoljskih in zdravstvenih standardov, ampak je treba ohraniti neodvisnost in celovitost konkurenčne politike EU in njenih pravil o zaščiti javnih storitev in kulturne raznolikosti;

Asks the Council and the Commission to discuss with the transatlantic partners how to make progress in the matter of developing countries' access to medicines, and to oppose vigorously the initiative of the US to include in all bilateral agreements negotiated with developing countries clauses by which those countries renounce the use of the provision of the Doha Agreement that allows them to produce and import generic drugs needed to tackle major public health problems (AIDS, tuberculosis, etc); is concerned, nevertheless, that Congress's intention to authorise parallel imports of medicines from EU Member States may create obstacles to their availability to EU patients and could favour counterfeiting; asks the EU, therefore, to raise this issue at the next Summit;
meni, da morata EU in ZDA, ki predstavljata 38 % svetovne porabe energije, prevzeti vodstvo in si skupaj prizadevati za razvoj alternativnih načinov pridobivanja energije in energetske učinkovitosti; zato poziva obe partnerici, naj okrepita sodelovanje na področju energije, zanesljivosti oskrbe z energijo in okoljske trajnosti, naj vzpostavita stabilen in predvidljiv svetovni trg z energijo, ki bo temeljil na tržnih pravilih, ter si prizadevata za vključitev določb o urejanju trgovine z energijo v pravila STO;
