Welcoming the decision of the European Parliament today to set up the new European External Action Service, Andrew Duff, Liberal Democrat MEP for the East of England, called for the EU to start a real debate on the content of foreign policy. "Now we have Europe speaking with one voice, we have to decide precisely what it is we want to say", he told the Parliament's plenary sitting in Strasbourg. "What we now need is an argument. If we fail to compare, contrast and contest each other's national foreign policies there will never be a common foreign, security and defence policy."
