Amendment 59 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 1 1. Stresses how the current economic crisis has demonstrated the interdependence between the emerged powers and the BRICS and other emerging countries; points out that stable economic growth of the latter is clearly conditional on stable economic growth of the former; emphasises that political and economic ties between emerged and emerging economies are mutually beneficial and believes that further political understanding and coordination with the BRICS and other emerging countries should thus be pursued by the EU as a matter of priority; suggests that in addition to being mechanisms for addressing bilateral issues, high level meetings between the EU and the different BRICS countries should also be employed as forums for building relations of trust, reconciling positions and encouraging the BRICS countries to assume greater responsibility in global governance, convincing them of the advisability of a more joined-up approach and better coordinated actions;
Amendment 65 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 2 2. Believes that the interdependence between, on the one hand, the emerged powers and, on the other, the BRICS and other emerging powers maintains a relevant economic dimension, but is essentially political, as both the emerged and the emerging powers should share an interest in ensuring an effective system of global governance and in tackling together those global stability and security risks which may curb the global growth potential;

Amendment 119 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 6 6.
Amendment 133 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 7 7. Stresses the importance that the overall coordination of EU foreign policy towards the BRICS and other emerging economies should lie with the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy without prejudice to the powers granted to the European Council and to the Council by the Lisbon Treaty; believes that the EU should strive to achieve, under the coordination by the High Representative, a better linking of foreign and security policy with EU sectoral policies, such as development, energy security, trade, access to raw materials and rare earths, climate change and migration, with a view to valorising synergies and ensuring a coherent and systemic foreign policy approach;
Amendment 141 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 9 9. Notes that the EU should have capacity to adjust and reform its internal governance structures in order to ensure a decision- making process able to reflect its plurality and create consensus; stresses the importance that a coherent foreign policy approach at EU level towards the BRICS and other emerging countries be reflected in the organisation of the EEAS; takes the view that with regard to the BRICS, in addition to its organisation along geographical and thematic lines, the EEAS should establish an ad hoc coordinating unit to ensure that all individual policies towards BRICS are compatible from a systemic point of view
Amendment 150 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 10 10. Stresses the key, positive role of Parliament’s Liaison Office in Washington DC in promoting dialogue and cooperation between Parliament and the US Congress, and believes that, building on this kind of positive experience, an assessment should be made as to whether the staff of EU Delegations in BRICS countries should include Parliament liaison officers in order to foster a greater understanding of the national parliamentary dimension in each of those countries and promote closer cooperation and dialogue between the European Parliament and national parliaments on a bilateral basis; believes that, in addition to its existing delegations for relations with Russia, India, China and South Africa, respectively, a delegation for relations with Brazil should also be considered;
