Proliferation of nuclear weapons to terrorist organisations is far more dangerous than proliferation of nuclear weapons to states, even states like North Korea.
From John Bruton
One cannot have economic growth without security.
Of course the EU and member states must work to ensure that people moving from one country to another understand their obligations and their rights in areas like health, road safety and further education.
Non-proliferation will only work if all states are willing to cooperate, and that will only happen if all feel they are being treated fairly.
It is not viable for one country to demand a right to increase and upgrade its nuclear weapons capabilities while asking others to eliminate theirs.
Ireland has a role to play in making the E.U. united and strong.
Indeed, American companies make three times as much profits from their investment in one E.U. country, Ireland, than they do from all their investments in China.
If the EU and the US can cooperate successfully on regulating financial markets, everyone else will follow.
The EU and the U.S. often work together to develop international standards. This is the case in fighting terrorism and transnational crime, advancing trade liberalization, and combating piracy and intellectual property violations.
The economy is not an abstraction. The economy consists of people, and it will only grow if people feel secure and are reasonably free.
