Treaty of Lisbon (No. 5)

Proceeding contribution from Mark Harper (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 February 2008. It occurred during Debates on treaty on Treaty of Lisbon (No. 5).
The Foreign Secretary said earlier that the EU's foreign policy would complement that of this country. I know he believes that our relationships with both NATO and the United States are key to our foreign policy, so why does the document presented by the Slovenian presidency and published by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office on the EU's external relations make no mention of either of those relationships? They were mentioned in the document produced by the last presidency, but have been expunged from this one. That does not sound very complementary to me.
