“The European Union is planning to ‘own and operate’ spy drones, surveillance satellites and aircraft as part of a new intelligence and security agency under the control of Baroness Ashton.

The use of the new spy drones and satellites for ‘internal and external security policies’, which will include police intelligence, the internet, protection of external borders and maritime surveillance, will raise concerns that the EU is creating its own version of the US National Security Agency.”
