Demaçi fremhævede vigtigheden af konstant at minde folk om, at Hu Jia stadig er fængslet og opfordrede medierne til konstant at sætte fokus på hans situation.
Our vision is of hope and we trust that our children and all children in the world can live in a healthier, greener, more fraternal and freer world.
"Diktaturer trives bedst under en kultur præget af glemsel, det er vigtigt, at vi arbejder for at modvirke dette", sagde han

Taslima Nasreen: Europa skal være et verdsligt kontinent
Taslima Nasreen: "Europe must be secular"
Taslima Nasreen Taslima Nasreen blev i 1994 tildelt Sakharov-prisen for hendes indsats i kampen mod religiøs fundamentalisme og undertrykkelse af kvinder.
Nasreen: "We should not allow torture in the name of culture" The 1994 Sakharov laureate Taslima Nasreen has paid a high price for her fight against the oppression of women and religious fundamentalism.
Hun blev først tvunget til at forlade sit hjemland Bangladesh og blev siden bortvist fra Kina.
She was forced to leave her country Bangladesh in 1999.
I dag bor hun i eksil i Sverige.
First exiled in India, the 46-year old doctor and author was forced to move on and now lives in exile in Sweden.
Vi talte med hende i Strasbourg i slutningen af december 2008.
She spoke to us ahead of the 20th Sakharov award ceremony about the threats that religious extremism pose.
Hvilken form for trussel udgør religiøs ekstremisme for almindelige mennesker?
What kind of a threat is religious extremism to ordinary people?
Religiøs ekstremisme er en stor trussel i denne verden.
Religious extremism is a big threat in the world.
Især islamistiske ekstremister truer samfundet i baglæns retning mod en mørk fortid, hvor kvinder ikke har nogen rettigheder eller friheder og bliver brugt som slaver, sexobjekter og fødemaskiner.
Especially the Islamic extremists who are threatening society, to make it go backwards into a dark age, when women didn't have any rights or any freedom and were used as slaves, sexual objects and child-bearing machines.
Hvis vi liberale mennesker accepterer dem (fundamentalisterne) i multikulturalismens navn, så begår vi en stor fejltagelse.
All cultures are not the same.
Alle kulturer er forskellige, men nogle kulturer er imod menneskerettigheder, kvinders rettigheder og ytringsfrihed.
Some are against human rights, women's rights and freedom of expression.
Vi bør ikke tillade tortur på baggrund af kulturelle forskelligheder - for det er ikke kultur.
We should not allow torture in the name of culture, because that is not culture.
Vi bør afvise kulturer, der er baseret på et kvindefjendtligt synspunkt.
If we see any culture that is anti-women, we should reject it.
... og islamistisk terrorisme ?
What kind of threat does Islamic terrorism pose?
Islamistisk terrorisme er en stor trussel, ikke kun i de muslimske lande, men også i de vestlige lande.
Islamic terrorism is a big threat not only to Islam, but also to western countries, because we are not safe anywhere.
Hvis vi ikke bekæmper islamiske religiøse fundamentalister, vil der ikke være nogen frihed tilbage i dette samfund.
If we allow Islamic religious fundamentalists to go unopposed there will be no freedom in this society.
Selv i Europa er man i nogle lande begyndt at tale om at indføre sharia-lovgivning.
Even in Europe, some countries have started talking about introducing Sharia law.
Vi skal støtte de mennesker, der kæmper for ligestilling og retfærdighed, og vi skal kæmpe for kvinders rettigheder overalt i verden.
We should support the people who are fighting for equality and justice and we should fight for women's rights everywhere.
Du har selv betalt en høj personlig pris for din kamp for menneskerettighederne.
You've paid a high personal price in your fight for human rights.
Hvad betød Sakharov-prisen for dig?
What did the Sakharov prize mean to you?
Sakharov-prisen gav mig anerkendelse.
The Sakharov prize gave me recognition.
Det gav mig den mentale styrke til at fortsætte min kamp for kvinders rettigheder og friheder.
It gave me the mental strength to continue my fight for women's rights and freedom.
Oswaldo Payá: Vores vision handler om håb
Wei Jingsheng: Western countries "have given up on human rights for trade"
Oswaldo Paya For seks år siden modtog den cubanske menneskerettighedsaktivist, Oswaldo Payá, Sakharov-prisen.
He paid a heavy price for the activities, enduring incarceration twice and ultimately being exiled from China.
Han blev i slutningen af 2008 forhindret i at deltage i Sakharov-prisens 20-års jubilæum.
Like 2008 winner Hu Jia, Wei was in prison at the time of his award and could not receive his prize in person.
Vi fik mulighed for at stille ham et par spørgsmål over telefonen.
We spoke to him about China, his hopes for change and the attitude of the West.
Hvorfor kunne du ikke deltage i år?
Everything changes, but everything stays the same in China?
I Cuba er rejser til udlandet ikke en rettighed.
The Chinese people have changed over those 12 years.
Den cubanske regering har oprettet en meget kompliceret procedure for tilladelser til at ud- og indrejser.
Twelve years ago, when I received the award, many Chinese people believed in democracy, yet still had hope in the Chinese Communist party.
Regeringen har ikke givet mig mulighed for at rejse ud.
Now, most people hold out no hope for reform by the Communist government itself.
Hvordan ser det ud med dit arbejde?
That means Chinese society is in great danger.
Varela-projektet er et borgerandragende, der gør brug af en forfatningsmæssig ret, der siger, at hvis 10.000 borgere foreslår et udkast til en lov, så skal det drøftes i Nationalforsamlingen.
The economic interdependence between the West and China is growing each day; do you detect any contradictions in Western attitudes to China?
I 2002 fremlagde vi 11.000 underskrifter og i 2003 25.000 underskrifter.
If it were a relationship between two normal partners there would be no problem.
Varela-projektet kræver en folkeafstemning.
But China is an abnormal country.
Der foreslås indførelse af ytringsfrihed og foreningsfrihed.
In this respect, I am not happy with Western countries who have given up on human rights for trade, especially over the last 10 years.
Derudover kræver vi frigivelse af menneskerettighedsforkæmpere.
The Chinese authorities opposed the award of the Sakharov Prize to Hu Jia.
Varela-projektet er det fredelige alternativ..., uden udenlandsk indblanding.
How was your winning of the award in 1996 viewed by the authorities then?
Men vi bliver hele tiden forfulgt, undertrykt og truet.
I do not know, because I was in jail at the time.
Statens hemmelige politi bryder ind i aktivisternes huse for at stjæle lister og underskrifter.
But over the last couple of years, the Chinese government has reacted strongly to various voices, not just Hu Jia, but also for example the Dalai Lama.
Jeg tror, at alt det som at regeringen gør - propagandaen, undertrykkelsen og forfølgelserne - er et forsøg på at dræbe håbet.
They react so strongly and this is precisely because they feel so fragile.
Ydermere kan de yde moralsk og politisk støtte til alle de fredelige initiativer, som f.eks. Varela-projektet.
Reporters without Borders: "Not much to celebrate" in world press freedom
På den ene side, er der aktører i Den Europæiske Union - særligt i Parlamentet - der giver plads til den cubanske befolknings stemme.
Olivier Basille: "Priorities are unfortunately set by the news" Reporters Without Borders (RSF) won the Sakharov Prize in 2005 in recognition of the organisation's work in defending the freedom of the press across the world.
På den anden side, er der lande i Europa, som forsøger at lukke munden på den dimension af menneskerettighederne for at opnå et godt forhold til den cubanske regering.
Olivier Basille represented RSF at the ceremony marking the twentieth anniversary of the Sakharov Prize in December 2008.
Respekten for vores suverænitet og selvbestemmelse er kun ægte, hvis den samtidig respekterer cubanernes rettigheder.
We caught up with him there and asked him about the Prize and the state of press freedom in the world.
Hvor ser du Cuba om 10 år?
What is your vision of the Sakharov Prize?
Jeg tror, at Cubas kortsigtede og langsigtede fremtid bliver afgjort nu.
What value do you attribute to it?
Vi mener, at fredelig forandring er muligt, og at hver cubaner er nødt til at tage et skridt fremad,
The fact that one is recognized by a body like the EP, beyond the honour, it also represents the ability to see other European institutions, parliamentarians, but also international actors.
på samme måde som verden skal tage et skridt fremad - ikke ved at intervenere og pålægge embargoer eller blokader, men ved åbent og offentligt at forsvare cubanernes rettigheder.
In fact it's a way of telling them "it is not only as an NGO that bothers you, but with the legitimacy of the EP which recognizes not only the merits of what we do but also the usefulness."
Vi mener, at vi kan bibeholde det gratis sundhedsvæsen og det gratis uddannelsessystem.
It took an initiative to create the network because after twenty years, twenty ambassadors have great potential.
Vores vision handler om håb, og vi tror på, at vores børn og alle børn i hele verden vil komme til at bo i en sundere, grønnere og friere verden.
This has emerged as a possible force overtime.
Dom Zacarias Kamwenho Ærkebiskop Zacarias Kamwenho, der var leder af den angolanske fred og forsoning, fik tildelt Sakharov-prisen i 2001.
This will not always be easy and there are even times we do not all agree.
Hvordan vil du beskrive den nuværende situation i Angola?
We leave very angry but still shaking hands.
Vi har nu haft 6 år med fred, hvilket giver os mulighed for at analysere alle krigens sørgelige konsekvenser.
This year we celebrate 60 years of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights but sincerely, there is nothing to celebrate.
Vi arbejder for en effektiv forsoning.
It has never been in a worse situation in regard to freedom of expression.
Har Sakharov-prisen hjulpet dig i dit arbejde?
Has the internet has changed your business?
Sakharov-prisen har hjulpet mig meget.
Today, the internet has the ability to mount communication campaigns four times faster.
Jeg var blot den anden i afrikaner (efter Nelson Mandela) der blev tildelt Sakharov-prisen, og det havde en virkning.
It sends a file to twenty thousand people and has a potential relay mobilisation, without counting the number of information sources available to us via the Internet.
Jeg var den anden prismodtager, der taler portugisisk (efter Xanana Gusmão) og dette havde også en virkning.
Moreover, the internet has enabled some to have a forum that they did not, including the Sakharov Prize.
Sakharov-prisen hjælper folk til at forstå, at der er værdier, som skal bevares.
There are certainly things to do within the network with Sakharov MEPs.
Hvad er din nuværende mission?
What are the hot spots of your business now, geographically speaking?
Jeg er formand for Ecumenical Committee for Peace in Angola , som arbejder med at fremme fred.
The hot spots are of course in Iraq and Afghanistan, which remain the most dangerous for the press not only for the Western press.
Jeg har sammen med mine kolleger arbejdet for det mål i hele Angola.
For today, those who pay the heaviest price are the Arab journalists who supply us with images.
Vi promoverer konferencer og møder, og vi arbejder konstant for en effektiv forsoning.
These are things we should remember from time to time: in Iraq, those who die are not just white.
Vores udvalg for økonomisk retfærdighed har fungeret godt, og regeringen er taknemmelig for vores forskning, som har til formål at skabe en effektiv social retfærdighed.
Another thing that worries us a lot is that Eritrea is a country which never speaks but who knows a worse position than that of North Korea and on which we would like to put emphasis.
Som vi alle ved, er soial retfærdighed den bedste måde at konsolidere fred.
We would like to see more interest in this by the EP.
Derefter var der ikke flere forfølgelser af UNIT´s tilhængere, og i dag gør alle en indsats i fredens navn.
The problems we have in Iran, Syria and Afghanistan are enormous.
Angola udgør et eksempel, som andre lande der lever i krig bør kunne lære af, f. eks
There, a journalist sentenced to death had his sentence reduced to twenty years in prison.
dem i Big Lakes.
What changes!
Deres krig minder om vores, og hvad vi skulle igennem.
His only crime?
Men vi var i stand til at komme videre.
He thought differently.
Eksemplet med Angola - i form af dialog, forståelse og fremtidsudsyn – bør kunne hjælpe andre lande.
Sakharov Prize has real impact, say previous winners Sakharov Prize at 20 Reporters Without Borders
Mødrene fra Plaza del Mayo: Vores børn fødte os
Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo: “our children gave birth to us”
Hebe de Bonafini Under ”den beskidte krig" i Argentina (1976-1983) bortførte, torturerede og dræbte militærjuntaen sine politiske modstandere.
Mrs Hebe de Bonafini: "We left the tears at home and went on the streets to fight for our children" During the “Dirty War” in Argentina (1976 to 1983), the military government abducted, tortured and killed its political opponents - many of them young people.
I 1977 begyndte en gruppe mødre til forsvundne at mødes hver torsdag på Plaza de Mayo i Buenos Aires.
1977 a group of mothers of the disappeared began to meet each Thursday in the Plaza de Mayo in Buenos Aires, wearing white shawls, which symbolized their children's diapers.
Vi talte med en af dem, nemlig Hebe de Bonafini.
We talked to one of them - Hebe de Bonafini.
Fortæl os din personlige historie...
Tell me your personal story…
Vi vil ikke fortælle vores personlige historier, da historierne om dem, som er aktive vil blive kendte.
We do not tell our personal stories because then the stories of those who are more active would be more known.
Vores børn blev bortført på gaderne, i skolerne og på arbejdspladserne.
Our children were abducted in the street, in the college, at work.
De blev slået og tortureret for øjnene af os.
They were beaten and tortured in front of us.
Det var meget forfærdeligt, og det har efterladt os med et stort tomrum, et hul i kroppen, som aldrig vil heles.
It was a very terrible thing that has left a huge void, a hole in the body that will never heal.
I 5 år var jeg uden min familie, kun min datter og mor blev skånet.
I lost all my family in 5 years, only my daughter and my mother were left.
Men vi havde styrken til at fortsætte.
But we had the strength to continue.
Vi lod tårerne blive derhjemme og gik på gaden for at kæmpe for vores børn.
We left the tears at home and went on the streets to fight for our children.
Hvad har du opnået i løbet af de 32 år, og hvad ønsker du at opnå?
What have you achieved in these 32 years?
Ingen talte om, hvad der foregik.
What do you still want to achieve?
Argentina var bare fantastisk.
Nobody talked about what was happening, Argentina seemed to be fantastic.
Mødrene gik ud for at fortælle hele verden, om hvad vi blev udsat for.
The mothers came out to tell the entire world what happened to us.
Med denne regering har vi opnået at afskaffe forsoningslovene, og sager bliver nu efterforsket.
With this government we achieved the abolishment of forgiving laws, trials were initiated.
Vi er også begyndt at engagere os i politisk uddannelse, og vi har åbnet et universitet, et tidsskrift, et bibliotek og en radiostation.
We also started to engage in political education, opened a university; we have an editorial, a library, a radio station.
Vi tilbyder huse, som folk selv kan bygge.
We are providing housings which people construct themselves - men who lived from stealing and women who ate garbage before.
Vi har åbnet børnehaver og skoler.
We have opened kindergartens and schools for their children.
Jeg synes, at vi har udrettet mange ting, især ved at lade hele verden forstå, at livet altid vinder over døden.
I think we have accomplished many things, especially to let the whole world know that life always defeats death.
De kastede vores børn i floderne, brændte dem, skød dem... men de var ikke i stand til at ødelægge os.
They threw our children into the river alive, burned them, shot them... and they could not destroy (vanquish) us.
Vores børn fødte os.
Our children gave birth to us.
Nu overlader vi alt til de unge.
Now we are leaving everything in the hands of the young people.
Hvordan har Sakharov-prisen hjulpet dig?
How did Sakharov prize help you?
Sakharov-prisen har hjulpet os med at beskytte os selv, redde vores liv og øge bevidstheden.
Sakharov Prize helped us to protect ourselves, to save our lives, to raise awareness.
Dette bekræfter vidneudsagn fra flere overlevende...
This confirms the testimonies of the survivors…
Dødsfald er ikke nødvendige for at bekræfte vidneudsagnene.
No deaths are needed to confirm the testimonies.
Vi accepterer ikke opgravning af lig, da man ikke vil kunne finde dem alle.
We do not accept the exhumation of the corpses because not everyone will appear.
Mange blev smidt ud i floderne, og mange blev brændt.
Many were thrown into the river, many burned.
Vi accepterer ikke økonomisk kompensation – det handler om retfærdighed, ikke om penge.
We do not accept financial compensation - what needs to be repaired by justice can not be repaired by money.
Vores børn fortsætter med at leve som før.
Our children continue to live as before.
Vi havde et fælles moderskab, og nu er vi alles mødre - også de anonymes.
We socialized motherhood and now we are the mothers of all - also of the anonymous.
EP-formand: Volden i Gaza skal stoppes øjeblikkeligt
Gaza: Pöttering calls for immediate ceasefire
Desperation i Gaza "Et palæstinensisk liv har den samme værdi som et israelsk", fastslår Europa-Parlamentets formand, Hans-Gert Pöttering, i en pressemeddelelse.
Gaza grief; A women mourns a man killed by an Israeli missile strike, 5 Jan "The life of a Palestinian has the same value as the life of an Israeli" said Parliament's President Hans-Gert Pöttering as he expressed his growing concern about the conflict in Gaza.
Han udtrykker sin dybe bekymring over situationen i Gaza og opfordrer alle parter til at standse volden.
He also urged all sides to halt the violence with immediate effect.
"Det var en stor fejl, at Hamas besluttede at ophæve våbenhvilen.
"It was a big mistake that Hamas declared the end of the ceasefire.
Det bør også stærkt kritiseres, at Hamas genoptog raketangrebene på Israel.
It has to be strongly criticised that Hamas recommenced rocket attacks on Israel but the massive Israeli reaction...is an escalation that is totally disproportionate" said Mr Pöttering.
Men den massive israelske reaktion... er utryk for en eskalering, der er helt ude af proportioner", sagde Pöttering.
He went on to say that "such military actions will not lead to a lasting peace in the region.
"Jeg opfordrer alle parter til en øjeblikkelig våbenhvile for at fremme dialog og normale forbindelser.
"I call on all parties for an immediate ceasefire, to favour dialogue and resume calm relations" said Pöttering.
Jeg tror, at en vedvarende fredsløsning - baseret på en to-stats- løsning - kun kan opnås gennem en aktiv inddragelse af alle parter."
"I believe a longstanding peace solution based on a two-state-solution can only be achieved through the active involvement of all parties."
Pöttering opfordrede den kommende amerikanske administration samt EU til i fællesskab at arbejde for en omfattende fredsplan for Mellemøsten.
He called on the incoming US Administration and the European Union to jointly promote a comprehensive peace strategy for the Middle East.
EU-delegation i Mellemøsten
Gaza likely to be debated by MEPs
EU's delegation i Mellemøsten ledes af den tjekkiske udenrigsminister, Karel Schwarzenberg, som arbejder på at få en våbenhvile i stand.
A European Union delegation led by the Czech Republic - the current holders of the European Union - has been in the region.
Frankrigs præsident, Nicholas Sarkozy, er også i Mellemøsten for at støtte EU-formandskabets arbejde for en fredsløsning.
President Sarkozy of France and UN Middle East Peace envoy Tony Blair have also met with leading players in the crisis.
Medlemmerne af Parlamentets udenrigsudvalg vil onsdag mødes med palæstinensiske og israelske ambassadører for at drøfte situationen i Gaza.
Irish Labour MEP Proinsias de Rossa is a senior member of Parliament's delegation to the Palestinian Authority.
"EU-delegationen bør insistere på en våbenhvile, der respekteres af alle parter, en tilbagetrækning af IDF fra Gaza samt en ophævelse af blokaden mod Gaza.
He told us that "the EU delegation should insist on a ceasefire by all sides, a withdrawal of the Israeli Defence Force from Gaza, and the lifting of the blockade on Gaza so that life for civilians can return to some kind of normality".
Det er nødvendigt, så livet for civilbefolkningen i Gaza kan vende tilbage til en form for normalitet", sagde Pronsias De Rossa (PSE, Irland), der er næstformand for Europa-Parlamentets delegation til Den Palæstinensiske Myndighed.
Polish MEP and head of the Foreign Affairs Committee Jacek Saryusz-Wolski will Chair Wednesday's meeting which brings together diplomats from both sides in Brussels.
Europa-Parlamentet vil i næste uge diskutere situationen i Gaza, når MEP´erne mødes til årets første parlamentssamling i Strasbourg.
The conflict in Gaza is almost certain to feature prominently in debates when MEPs meet in Strasbourg from 12-15 January for its first sitting of the year.
Økonomiske bekymringer forud for valget til Europa-Parlamentet
Eurobarometer poll shows economic fears ahead of June European elections
En ny Eurobarometer-undersøgelse fastslår, at et stort flertal af europæerne ser EU-medlemskab som en positiv ting.
As the majority of European countries enter prolonged periods of negative growth, more commonly known as a recession, it's clear that these troubling times are affecting voter priorities.
De fleste europæere er bevidste om at 2009 vil komme til at blive stærkt præget af den internationale finansielle krise.
According to the survey, opinion across Europe is starkly in line with the harsh reality.
Europæerne synes især at være pessimistiske i forhold til den globale økonomiske situation, som 71 % af de adspurgte anser for at være meget alvorlig.
Europeans appear particularly pessimistic about the global economic situation, which 71% of respondents consider to be bleak.
Til gengæld mener omkring 33 %, at det ser bedre ud for den europæiske økonomi.
However, the state of the European economy is seen more positively with 33% of citizens believing it to be fairly good.
Optimistiske danskere
Individual differences
Slovakiet, der indførte euroen den 1. januar 2009, er det eneste EU-land, hvor befolkningen ser mere positivt på økonomien, end de gjorde i 2007.
Individual citizens remained positives on the whole.
Trods den økonomiske uro er europæerne fortsat relativt optimistiske, når det kommer til deres personlige økonomiske situation: 64 % af de adspurgte ser positivt på deres privatøkonomi og 56 % er tilfredse med deres nuværende jobsituation (Ledigheden i EU forventes at stige fra 7,1 % til 8,1 % i 2009).
When asked to comment on their personal situation, 64% were positive about the financial situation of their household and 56% found their current job situation good.
Frygt for inflation og arbejdsløshed
In autumn 2008 rising prices and inflation and the economic situation were the two most frequently mentioned concerns in Europe.
Den generelle økonomiske situation er den vigtigste nationale bekymring i 9 medlemsstater.
The Netherlands registered the highest anxiety over the economic situation.
Stigende arbejdsløshed topper "bekymringslisten" i Spanien, Polen og Malta, mens adgangen til pensioner udgør den største bekymring i Bulgarien, Ungarn, Østrig og Slovenien.
Other concerns include unemployment, healthcare, immigration and pensions.
EU-medlemskab: "en god ting"
EU membership: 'a good thing'
Til trods for de økonomiske udfordringer ser et stort flertal af europæerne EU-medlemskabet som en positiv ting.
Membership of the European Union is still seen as a good thing by a majority of Europeans with 53% showing support.
