Han henviste til, at Anders FOGH RASMUSSEN klart har givet udtryk, at den danske regering respekterer islam som en af verdens førende religioner.
I want, personally today, to emphasise my deep respect for Islamic civilisation and the contribution it has made and continues to make to Europe.
José Manuel Barroso understregede samtidig, at en boykot af Danmark er en boykot af hele EU.
And let us be clear; a boycott of Danish goods is by definition a boycott of European goods.
Han udtrykte sin solidaritet med hele det danske folk, som han betegnede som et af de mest åbne og tolerante i hele verden.
I have spoken with the Prime Minister of Denmark and expressed the solidarity of the Commission.
Nu gælder det om at løse problemet effektivt og med fredelige midler, fortsatte han.
The Commission will continue to work with the Austrian Presidency and all parties to resolve the problem peacefully and efficiently.
Samtidig er respekten for religiøse overbevisninger ligeledes en af de grundlæggende rettigheder, og det gælder også for islam, fastslog han.
Religious freedom is a fundamental right of individuals and communities, it entails respect for the integrity of all religious convictions and all ways in which they are exercised.
Endelig lagde han op til en åben og kritisk dialog.
I am fostering and will continue to foster dialogue between cultures and with religions.
Tolerance og respekt skal gå begge veje
There was freedom of belief and freedom of difference.
Her drejer det sig dels om at forsvare pressefriheden, dels om at beskytte de troende og deres symboler, sagde Hans-Gert PÖTTERING (PPE-DE, DE).
We needed self control, to remain calm and measured.
Det kan godt lade sig gøre samtidig, hvis vi udviser mådehold og selvbeherskelse, og det gælder også i de muslimske lande, sagde han.
To the media in Iran and other Islamic countries he said that one cannot fight insensitivity with insensitivity.
Som udgangspunkt opfordrede han til en kritisk gennemgang af skolebøger i EU og i den muslimske verden for at vurdere de holdninger, der gives udtryk for i disse bøger.
He put forward a specific suggestion for further reflection: the setting up of a committee of experts to review material in school books in Europe and in the Islamic world to see how values are transmitted.
Endvidere gik han ind for at bruge Euromed-samarbejdet til at fremme dialogen mellem EU og den muslimske verden.
He pointed out that there were hundreds of cartoons in the Islamic world mocking European values and beliefs.
Men det er også vigtigt at understrege, at tolerance og respekt ikke kun skal gå den ene vej, sluttede han.
He said the Euro-Mediterranean Parliamentary Assembly could be a forum for dialogue.
EU står for det modsatte af fremmedhad og intolerance
We must have tolerance and understanding, based on mutual recognition of the truth."
Historien har lært os værdien af forståelse og sameksistens, sagde han.
Through our long and bloody history, we have learned values of peaceful co-existence the hard way.
Vi skal ikke have flere udgivelser, der skaber myter om "dem" og "os", og som bliver udnyttet af ekstremister på begge sider til at opflamme had og frygt, sagde Poul Nyrup.
This episode, he said, cannot be used to create new myths about each other or to stimulate xenophobic and populist movements in Europe or in Islamic world.
Men lad nu næste skridt blive en samling om en åben og konstruktiv politisk dialog, sluttede Poul Nyrup.
Instead there should be a permanent, political, open and constructive dialogue.
Hun betegnede det som fuldstændigt uacceptabelt at erstatte dialog med voldelige demonstrationer.
Violent protest, attacks, and flag burning had replaced dialogue.
Hun beklagede, at europæiske firmaer ganske usolidarisk har deltaget i boykotten af danske varer.
Seeing a European company boycotting Danish goods was not, she said, a sign of solidarity.
EU skal vise solidaritet og bekæmpe forsøg på intimidering af medlemsstater, herunder afvise krav om at regeringer skal undskylde for indholdet i uafhængige medier, sagde hun.
When the Danish flag and others were burned, she said, we should show solidarity and reject demands that governments apologise on behalf of the independent media.
Karin Riis-Jørgensen henviste til, at Grundloven foreskriver, at alle skal kunne give udtryk for deres meninger på tryk under ansvar for loven, og at censur ingensinde skal genindføres.
The Danish constitution, she said, gave all people the right to publish subject to responsibility before the Courts.
Hvis vi først giver os til at gradbøje ytringsfriheden og samtidig parkerer vores ret til kritisk analyse, også af religioner, så vil vores fundamentale ret til tanke- og ytringsfrihed blive indskrænket, konkluderede Karin Riis-Jørgensen.
Greater care, she argued, must be taken to ensure relations between communities remain as harmonious as possible.
Intet er helligt, heller ikke religionen
This could be resolved not by thought police but by dialogue.
Frihed kan være en sådan byrde, at mennesker må flygte fra den, sagde Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Verts/ALE, DE).
She rejected the idea of a code of conduct for the press: "If communities cannot discuss issues on their cultural fault lines, how will they grow together?
Han advarede mod at lade politikere udstikke grænser for pressefriheden.
Freedom of expression is a right but not a duty; it is a right we need to defend.
Men efter hans mening må pressen selv finde ud af at fastsætte grænser for sin adfærd.
Instead he expressed his belief in the capacity of the common sense of civil society to do this.
Samtidig understregede han, at religion som en del af samfundet må finde sig i at blive karikeret på lige fod med andre elementer i samfundet.
He noted that the debate surrounding the publication of the cartoons is a "debate for everyone, for society" and expressed his support for President Barroso's belief in the right to publish the cartoons.
Friheden er noget, vi møjsommeligt har kæmpet os frem til, og endnu er intet samfund faldet sammen på grund af for megen frihed, fastslog han.
He considered it fundamental that "we cannot draw up a code of conduct for the press".
Han erklærede sin solidaritet med ofrene for de voldelige demonstrationer og tog skarpt afstand fra, at de store firmaer Nestlé og Carrefour har indrykket erklæringer i arabiske aviser om, at de ikke er danske.
Mr. Cohn-Bendit noted that as religion is in the public domain, criticism of it will always be "part and parcel of democracy" and that although the cartoons may not be in good taste, "freedom is not a question of taste, and it is something we have fought for".
Vi skal ikke bære ved til bålet
He expressed his solidarity with all those who have been victims of the recent violence.
Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, FR) beklagede manglen på nuancerede indlæg i debatten.
Francis WURTZ GUE/NGL , (FR) called freedom of expression the "touchstone of democracy" and the "touchstone of living in a secular society".
Han understregede, at man ikke kan gå på akkord med ytringsfrihed som en forudsætning for demokratiet.
He considered freedom of expression along with tolerance as "two achievements not to be underestimated in Europe".
Men samtidig fremhævede han behovet for at udøve sine frihedsrettigheder under gensidig respekt i en globaliseret verden.
He commented that the world of today is a small and interdependent one and that the "freedom of each is exercised in the action of all".
Han tog afstand fra de voldsomme reaktioner i visse arabiske lande, som han så som et udtryk for, at de pågældende regimer benyttede lejligheden til at pleje andre interesser.
Mr. Wurtz warned that if Europeans do not "break the vicious cycle", they will be "helping both extreme sides in achieving their aims".
Men vi skal ikke bære ved til bålet og derved fremme den onde cirkel, fastslog han.
He asserted the need for Europe to "build bridges between the civilisations" and the need to heal the "open wound" of the Middle East "before it turns septic".
Europa kan spille en rolle som bro mellem civilisationerne og være med til at hele såret i Mellemøsten, sluttede han.
Jens-Peter BONDE (IND/DEM, DK) declared that on "freedom of expression, we will never give in" and that along with freedom of religion it needed to be respected.
Den globale landsby
Mr. Bonde talked of the importance for every local editor to show global responsibly, that any rights concerning freedom of expression must be decided locally and the need for "dialogue and generosity instead of animosity".
Globaliseringen er ankommet, sagde Jens-Peter BONDE (JuniBevægelsen).
He asserted that Islam is not above Danish law and that it cannot appeal to the judiciary at a European Level to be considered so.
Han havde aldrig troet, at han skulle se Dannebrog blive afbrændt med et sådant engagement.
Mr. Bonde closed his speech with the notion that "we must all live together on this globe; we have no other globe available, yet"
Ytringsfrihed og religionsfrihed skal respekteres, og i Danmark kan man faktisk komme i fængsel for at afbrænde Koranen, fastslog han.
Brian CROWLEY (UEN, IE) opened with the notion that "there are no absolute rights…rights can be restricted", but that we also have to ensure that the press has the freedom to "offend" and to "poke fun", for he said humour and offence act as the safety-valve of democracy in ensuring that it works properly.
Samtidig henviste han til, at Jyllands-Postens redaktør offentligt har beklaget og meddelt, at han aldrig ville have bragt tegningerne, hvis han havde kendt til resultatet på forhånd.
He condemned the violence that occurred as a consequence of the cartoons' publication and believed that attention should be drawn to the numerous peaceful protests that occurred, protests that are "equally as important to raise in democracy as the right to expression".
Han roste Anders Fogh for at have nægtet at tage ansvaret for indholdet af de danske aviser, men mente nok, at statsministeren skulle have taget mødet med de arabiske ambassadører.
He therefore lamented the wide media coverage of the minorities' violence.
Så kunne han have forklaret, at det er domstolene, der definerer grænserne for ytringsfriheden, sagde Jens-Peter Bonde.
He considered there to be a need for European solidarity, as a "boycott on Danish goods, is a boycott on all goods", and a need to "respect the dignity of difference".
Koranen står ikke over den danske Grundlov, og muslimer i Danmark må benytte retssystemet som alle andre, hvis de er utilfredse med noget, sagde han.
Frank VANHECKE (NI, BE) began his speech by commenting on how shameful he saw the "lack of solidarity with Denmark that many European governments have shown during this affair".
Vi skal samarbejde med de muslimske organisationer, men uden at ofre ytringsfriheden, sagde Jens-Peter Bonde.
He lamented the verbal contortions of many who wanted to avoid offending Muslims and noted that the violent protests were not only targeted at the Danish but at the entire free west.
IND/DEM-gruppen ser gerne, at de fundamentale rettigheder bliver en del af EU-retten, men afgørelser skal træffes lokalt inden for rammerne af internationale konventioner, sagde han.
He considered it time for Muslims who live in Europe and who enjoy freedom of expression to "put things into perspective" by understanding that democracy is "sometimes a question of clashing point of views".
EU må skride ind over for den organiserede handelsboykot af danske varer, sagde han.
He called for the European Union to show its resistance "even at the risk of unflattering labels" and for Europeans to throw off their "muzzles".
Jens-Peter Bonde mindede om, at karikaturtegninger o.l. hurtigt spredes over Internettet, og at redaktører derfor bør handle ansvarsfuldt.
Concluding, Mr. Vanhecke commented that Turkey could never be a member of the Union, because the principles of Islam are incompatible with the principles of Europe.
Tredje verdenskrig kan meget vel blive udløst af en banal karikaturtegning, sagde han.
He agreed on the importance of school textbooks not conveying stereotypes and that extremists must not be allowed to triumph.
Et bolværk for ytringsfriheden
MEPs optimistic about outlook for Bosnia and Herzegovina
Der er grænser for ytringsfriheden, f.eks. har man ikke lov til uberettiget at råbe "Det brænder" i en stopfyldt biograf, sagde Brian CROWLEY (UEN, IE).
MEPs referred in particular to the development of a proper legal framework and efficient public administration and reforms of public broadcasting, police, defence and intelligence.
Samtidig understregede han, at ytringsfriheden har en meget vigtig fun-ktion som demokratiets sikkerhedsventil, også i form af humor og satire.
Among other things, MEPs supported the initiative to set up a Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and stressed that the parliamentary elections in October 2006 will be crucial.
Han tog klart afstand fra de voldelige demonstrationer i de muslimske lande og beklagede, at disse havde fået en alt for fremtrædende dækning i medierne i forhold til de mere fredelige tilkendegivelser.
As a Commission official observed during a debate at committee level, -- and as MEPs went on to contend in their report -- the EU must ensure that the internal market "remains an attractive place to invest".
Som irer var det smertefuldt for ham at se, hvordan et land som Danmark, der om nogen har været foregangsland for åbenhed og tolerance, blev udsat for et pøbelvælde med flagafbrændinger og angreb på ambassader.
At the same time, as the Parliament states, a flexible and globally-oriented internal market should go hand in hand with efforts "to deliver growth, jobs, social justice and respect for ecological balance while maintaining [Europe's] values and [its] social model."
I den forbindelse roste han Anders Fogh, som han betegnede som et bolværk for ytringsfriheden.
"Protectionism is not the answer," argued Commissioner for the Internal Market and Services Charlie McCreevy, speaking before the plenary.
Vi må værne om vores frihed, som altid skal respekteres og beskyttes, sluttede han.
As international integration accelerates, he remarked, "the concept of open markets and a globalising economy has come under attack."

E-mail: foreign-press@europarl.europa.eu Fælles beslutningsforslag om retten til ytringsfrihed og respekt for religiøs overbevisning
The Council has accepted Parliament's key demand that the legislation should cover only artificial sources of optical radiation and not natural sources such as the sun.
EU-flyveledercertifikat skal give øget sikkerhed
The often heard name "sunshine directive" is thus now completely inappropriate.
EP har godkendt et forslag om at harmonisere reglerne om uddannelse og udstedelse af flyveledercertifikater samt at lette den gensidige anerkendelse af nationale certifikater.
The directive lays down minimum standards for the prevention and early diagnosis of damage to the eyes and skin from optical radiation, and for the prevention of long-term health dangers.
EU-flyveledercertifikatet skal øge sikkerheden og forbedre EU-flyvekontrolsystemets måde at fungere på.
It sets exposure limit values and requires employers to carry out risk assessments.
I certifikatbestemmelserne fastlægges betingelserne for adgang til og udøvelse af flyveledererhvervet.
It also includes provisions on workers' rights to information, training, consultation and health checks.
Direktivet om et EU-flyveledercertifikat bygger på eksisterende internationale standarder.
Optical radiation within the meaning of the directive is any electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range between 100 nm and 1 nm.
Organisationen for International Civil Luftfart - ICAO - har udarbejdet forskrifter om certificering af flyveledere - inklusive krav om sprogkundskaber.
The spectrum of optical radiation is divided into ultraviolet radiation, visible radiation and infrared radiation.
Eurocontrol har også udarbejdet tilsvarende krav.
The directive does not cover ionising radiation like x-rays or gamma rays, nor electromagnetic fields such as microwaves and radio frequencies.
Med det foreliggende direktivforslag omsættes disse krav til EU-ret.
The Council wanted to require employers not only to assess the risks but also to set up an action plan if a risk is identified.
Direktivet gælder for personer, der ansøger om et flyvelederelevcertifikat, og for flyveledere, der er ansat af luftfartstjenesteudøvere, som primært betjener den almene lufttrafik.
As to the sources of artificial radiation concerned, such as lasers and infrared lamps, the directive details the measures the employer must take to protect employees.
Hovedpunkterne i forslaget er som følger:
Parliament agreed in second reading with these points.
Sociale og arbejdsmarkedsmæssige spørgsmål
Nevertheless, the House insists that the penalties be "proportionate, progressive, dissuasive" and gradual.
Det præciseres, at direktivet ikke vil berøre eksisterende nationale bestemmelser vedrørende ansættelsesforholdet mellem flyveledere og arbejdsgivere, og at arbejdsmarkedets parter på europæisk plan skal høres, hvis der indføres yderligere gennemførelsesforanstaltninger.
Worried about the possibility of lower standards of animal welfare around the world, MEPs also adopted an amendment calling on the Commission to "control, and where necessary, prohibit imports of chickens from third countries which come from holdings which do not observe similar rules on the welfare of chickens for meat production as those to be adopted by the EU."
Selv om man har bibeholdt det oprindelige grundkrav til sprogfærdigheder på operationelt niveau (niveau 4), tillader den fælles holdning også, at der kan kræves ekspertniveau (niveau 5), når bydende sikkerhedshensyn tilsiger det.
Moreover, in line with the Parliament's wishes, Member States are also allowed to require advanced proficiency in the local language (level 5) for important safety reasons: MEPs argued that staff responsible for air traffic control are also in contact with a number of local services (particularly the local emergency services), with whom they must be able to communicate easily.
Forbedring af den gensidige anerkendelse
MEPs support the retention of the Shetland fisheries box for a further three years
Certifikater og de dertil knyttede kategorier og kategori- og sprogpåtegninger samt helbredsgodkendelser er udtrykkelig underlagt princippet om uforbeholden gensidig anerkendelse.
Established in 1983, and in the hope of curbing the over-fishing of "species of special importance in the region…which are biologically sensitive", the Shetland Box is managed by a licensing system which restricts vessels of over 26 meters fishing for demersal fish in the area.
De nationale tilsynsmyndigheders rolle i grænseoverskridende forhold
The restrictions were implemented in order to reduce the levels of discards of flat fish in the North Sea fisheries.
Kun den nationale tilsynsmyndighed, der har udstedt certifikater, kategorier og påtegninger, har beføjelse til at inddrage dem.
At first, the closure applied only in the second and third quarters of the year, but in 1994 it was extended to the fourth and since 1995, the box has been closed the whole year round.
Dog er den nationale myndighed i den medlemsstat, hvor flyvelederen arbejder, ansvarlig for at vedligeholde kategorierne og påtegningerne, og den kan også suspendere dem midlertidigt.
It further notes how the Commission's Expert Working Group highlighted the "socio-economic importance of the boxes" and that one of the intentions of the Shetland Box is to "provide protection for fisheries-dependent communities in the north of Scotland".
Overgangsforanstaltninger for nuværende indehavere af certifikater
On state support for services of general economic interest, Parliament says that this only counts as 'state aid' when there is overcompensation.

Åbning af mødet
Opening of Session and highlights of the Strasbourg plenary
På onsdag skal EP drøfte situationen i anledning af den protestbølge, der har raset i den muslimske verden i kølvandet på dagbladet Jyllands-Postens offentliggørelse af 12 karikaturtegninger af profeten Muhammed.
Also on this week's agenda is the growing tension between Iran and the international community over the nuclear issue and a debate on freedom of speech and respect for religious faiths in the wake of the cartoons controversy.
I forbindelse med åbningen af EP's møde mandag eftermiddag blev det besluttet, at debatten om ytringsfrihed, som finder sted onsdag, skal munde ud i et beslutningsforslag, som kommer til afstemning torsdag.
The undoubted highlight of this week's plenary session in Strasbourg will be the debate and vote on the Services Directive on Tuesday 14 and Thursday 16 February respectively.
Det skete efter forslag fra ALDE-gruppen, som ligeledes havde ønske at afsætte mere tid til debatten på bekostning af redegørelsen vedrørende situationen i Bosnien-Hercegovina.
Plans to facilitate the provision of services in the EU single market could take a major step forward at Parliament, when MEPs will debate and vote on a first reading report tabled by Evelyne GEBHARDT (PES, DE) for the Internal market Committee.
Alle danske læsere vil være bekendt med baggrunden for debatten, nemlig de voldsomme reaktioner, der har fulgt offentliggørelsen af Muhammed-tegningerne i Jyllands-Posten.
MEPs will also be debating the effect of globalisation on the internal market with a call for the EU-15 to open up their labour markets to the 10 new Member States.
Der er ingen tvivl om, at sagen har bragt sindene i kog i den muslimske verden.
Catherine STIHLER (PES, UK) will be putting forward a non-binding report on fisheries, specifically the Shetland Box and Plaice Box, calling for them to be extended for a further three years.
Ikke mindst angrebene på flere europæiske ambassader i Syrien, Libanon og Iran har givet anledning til den største bekymring.
There will then be Council and Commission statements on the confrontation between Iran and the International Community and the outlook for Bosnia Herzegovina.
Debatten i EP og det efterfølgende beslutningsforslag skal ses som udtryk for, at også Europa-Parlamentet ser på sagen med den største alvor.
At the opening of the session Parliament made one change to the previously published agenda: there will now be a vote on motions for resolution to follow up Wednesday's debate on the right to freedom of expression and respect for religious belief.
Kyllinger skal have en bedre opvækst - minimumsregler for opdræt af kyllinger

Det slår til lyd for en harmonisering af de europæiske regler for mærkning af kyllingekød og opfordrer Kommissionen til at fastlægge standardkriterier for sanktioner over for opdrættere, der overtræder EU-lovgivningen.
They came out strongly against cruel practices like beak trimming and called on the Commission to standardise penalties for chicken farmers who do not comply with EU rules.
EP har godkendt en betænkning af Thijs BERMAN (PSE, NL) vedrørende et direktivforslag om minimumsforskrifter til beskyttelse af slagtekyllinger.
The consultation report approved the general rule established by the Commission to limit stocking densities to 30 kg/m2 per unit.
