Rapporteur (the Member appointed to lead Parliament's work on this text): TERRAS Riho (EPP)
Summary

This own-initiative report concerns critical technologies for security and defence: state-of-play and future challenges. Amendments dispute whether a strong defence sector is crucial to Europe's security and reference the European Defence Fund 2021-2027, Russia's war against Ukraine, and defence expenditure. Others address fragmentation in the defence market, critical raw materials and supply chains, the civilian-defence boundary, and ethical principles for research and innovation.

Plenary votes

1 roll-call votes

In plenary, Parliament usually votes in steps: first on amendments to the text (sometimes split into parts, so Members can accept one half of a sentence and reject the other), then on the text as a whole. The “main vote” is the one that adopts or rejects the text itself. Each vote below shows exactly which step it was. How voting works →
