Tabled by Sarah Knafo

Added: 32a. Stresses that increases in defence expenditure and joint procurement will deliver sustainable security outcomes only if accompanied by an effective European preference; considers, in this regard, that Union instruments such as the European Defence Industry Programme (EDIP), the SAFE instrument and European defence projects of common interest should give clear priority to capabilities designed, developed and produced within the European Union, in order to strengthen the European defence technological and industrial base, reduce strategic dependencies on non-EU countries and ensure the operational sovereignty of the Member States;
