3.6 É claramente necessário que as negociações bilaterais reflictam uma estratégia comum da UE, pelo que o conceito de "diplomacia das matérias-primas" tem de ganhar terreno na prática. O CESE assinala que não só os factos concretos ("hard facts") são importantes, mas também as questões subtis ("soft issues"), como a criação de um ambiente emocional positivo.
