ESN grupas Eiropas Parlamenta deput\u0101te Christine Anderson koment\u0113ja:<\/p>\n
\u201cKaut kam t\u0101dam nav vietas br\u012bv\u0101 demokr\u0101tij\u0101. Nav nekas jauns, ka ES turas pie \u2014 un papla\u0161ina \u2014 pla\u0161u subs\u012bdiju sist\u0113mu NVO un pilsonisk\u0101s sabiedr\u012bbas organiz\u0101cij\u0101m, kas pievienojas ofici\u0101lajai ES darba k\u0101rt\u012bbai, t\u0101d\u0113j\u0101di padarot t\u0101s tie\u0161i finansi\u0101li atkar\u012bgas no Komisijas.<\/p>\n
Desmitiem skand\u0101lu par nelikum\u012bgu NVO finans\u0113\u0161anu ac\u012bmredzami nav attur\u0113ju\u0161i ES no pilsonisk\u0101s sabiedr\u012bbas izmanto\u0161anas savu m\u0113r\u0137u sasnieg\u0161anai. NVO tiek p\u0101rv\u0113rstas par GONGO \u2014 vald\u012bbas organiz\u0113t\u0101m NVO, t\u0101pat k\u0101 \u0136\u012bn\u0101.<\/p>\n
Visi \u0161ie pas\u0101kumi ir v\u0113rsti uz to, lai politiz\u0113tu to, ko sauc par pilsonisko sabiedr\u012bbu. Ja valsts maks\u0101 tiem, kuri lemj, kas ir paties\u012bba, t\u0101 nav demokr\u0101tija; t\u0101 ir vad\u012bta sabiedrisk\u0101 doma.<\/p>\n
Brisel\u0113 run\u0101 par \u2018demokr\u0101tijas aizsardz\u012bbu\u2019 \u2013 ta\u010du paties\u012bb\u0101 tas noz\u012bm\u0113 aizsarg\u0101t sevi no demokr\u0101tisk\u0101s viedok\u013cu daudzveid\u012bbas. Ikviens, kur\u0161 m\u0113\u0123ina \u012bstenot politisko kontroli p\u0101r pla\u0161sazi\u0146as l\u012bdzek\u013ciem, platform\u0101m un ietekm\u012bgaj\u0101m person\u0101m, grauj tos pa\u0161us pamatus, kurus, k\u0101 vi\u0146i apgalvo, aizst\u0101v.<\/p>\n
Ar \u0161o programmu Komisija izvirza sevi par Eiropas augst\u0101ko paties\u012bbas arbitru \u2013 s\u0101kot no faktu p\u0101rbaudes un v\u0113l\u0113\u0161anu nov\u0113ro\u0161anas l\u012bdz pat \u2018pareiz\u0101\u2019 satura populariz\u0113\u0161anai.<\/p>\n
T\u0101 ir ideolo\u0123iska pa\u0161pilnvaro\u0161ana \u2013 Eiropas \u201dpaties\u012bbas ministrija\u201c iztur\u012bbas v\u0101rd\u0101. Bet demokr\u0101tijai nav vajadz\u012bgi aizsargm\u016bri; tai ir vajadz\u012bga br\u012bv\u012bba un spraigas debates. Ikviens, kur\u0161 cen\u0161as pasarg\u0101t demokr\u0101tiju no tautas, paties\u012bb\u0101 to grauj.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
