''Hidden from view, debarred from debate - EU report on arms exports''

shocking report given the state of the EU...butter, not guns...


"The Thirteenth Annual Report on Exports Control of Military Technology and Equipment was published, without prior notification, in The Official Journal of the European Union on 30 December 2011, the last working day of the year. It was not posted on the website of the European Union Council (which is responsible for its publication) or on the website of the European Parliament. The inference is that reporting on arms sales is a tedious bureaucratic duty rather than an issue worthy of public debate."


from open democracy...
