Karikaturtegnere skitserer deres ideer om fred i Parlamentet
Cartoonists sketch out their peace ideas in Parliament
Ligesom de kan få folk til at grine, kan karikaturtegninger også fortælle stærke, ubehagelige og rystende historier.
As well as making people laugh, cartoons have the power to deliver powerful, uncomfortable and shocking messages.
Sagen om de danske Muhammed-tegninger i 2005 var en kraftig påmindelse om den virkning, en tegning kan få.
The furore over the cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed printed in a Danish newspaper in 2005 was a stark reminder of the impact a cartoon can have.
I en høring arrangeret af FN og Parlamentets udvalg om menneskerettigheder, blev tegnernes fredsskabende rolle debatteret.
In a hearing organised by Parliament's Human rights committee and the UN their role in promoting peace was debated.
Høringen var en usædvanlig blanding af debat og tegning, eftersom Plantu optrådte for de fremmødte med lyn-tegning på en overhead-projektor.
The hearing was an unusual mix of debate and drawing with Plantu treating those present to a live drawing of one of his creations on an overhead projector.
Han var én af otte tegnere, der var tilstede og bidrog med erfaringer fra Europa, Mellemøsten, Afrika og USA.
He was one of 8 cartoonists present who brought their experiences from Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the US.
Høringen var planlagt til at foregå på den Internationale Dag for Pressefrihed 3. maj.
The hearing was timed to coincide with World Press Freedom Day - 3 May.
Tegnere har ”ingen våben – kun pen og papir”
Cartoonists have "no weapon other than a pen and paper"
Plantu talte på alles vegne, da han sagde: ”Vi er meget forskellige som tegnere, men vi er alle enige om, at vi er tegnere for fred og imod intolerance”.
Plantu spoke for them all when he said "we, as cartoonists, are very different, but we all agree we are cartoonists for peace, against intolerance".
Dilem fra Algeriet, som fem gange har oplevet at blive arresteret, fortalte på høringen, at ”vi blot gerne vil sige de ting højt, som vi finder uacceptable eller usande”.
Dilem from Algeria - who has been arrested 5 times, told the hearing that "we just like to speak out things what we find unacceptable or untrue".
Han tilføjede, at ”vi ikke har våben, kun pen og papir – mens andre dræber unge mennesker i tusindvis”.
He added that we have "no weapons other than a pen and paper whereas others kill thousands of young people".
Under henvisning til Muhammed-sagen spurgte den spanske MEP Raül Romeva i Rueda, De Grønne, om der er grænser for ytringsfriheden, og om tegnerne selv har tabuer.
On the controversy over the cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, Spanish Green MEP Raül Romeva i Rueda asked if there were limits to the freedom of expression and if the cartoonists had any taboos.
Plantu svarede, at han håber, der fortsat vil eksistere ”politisk ukorrekte” tegninger, men at det må ske ”uden opfordring til had”.
Plantu responded saying that he hopes "politically incorrect" cartooning would continue but "without transmitting hatred".
Han bemærkede dét, som han kaldte en fælles mangel på forståelse mellem kulturer i øst og vest.
He noted what he thought was a mutual lack of comprehension between cultures, East and West.
Men selvfølgelig er det en nødvendighed at fortsætte med tegninger mod Hamas eller Al Qaeda”.
But, of course, it is a must to keep publishing cartoons against Hamas or Al Qaida."
”Latter har styrken til at overvinde totalitarisme”
"Laughter has the power to defeat totalitarianism"
På høringen blev der talt meget om vigtigheden af vittighedstegninger som vejen til ytringsfrihed.
The importance of cartoons as an avenue of freedom of expression was widely spoke of in the hearing.
Franske Hélène Flautre, De Grønne, som er formand for Menneskerettighedsudvalget, sagde, at ”uden ytringsfrihed er det hverken muligt med demokrati eller menneskerettigheder”.
French Green MEP Hélène Flautre who chairs the Human Rights committee said that "without freedom of expression neither democracy nor full human rights are possible".
Et slovensk medlem af det Europæiske Folkeparti, Alojz Peterle, takkede tegnerne med ordene: ”hvad I gør, taler højere end politikernes ord”.
Alojz Peterle, a Slovenian member of the European People's Party thanked the cartoonists as "what you do speaks louder than the words of politicians".
”Tegneserier for Fred” blev oprettet i kølvandet på den danske Muhammed-sag og en kontroversiel udstilling om Holocaust i Iran i 2006.
"Cartooning for peace" was established in the wake of the Danish cartoon controversy and a controversial exhibition on the Holocaust in Iran in 2006.
En udstilling af tegninger af Plantu og andre tegnere, der støtter initiativet, kan ses i det belgiske center for tegneseriekunst indtil 2. juli 2007.
An exhibition of cartoons by Plantu and other cartoonists who support the initiative can be seen the Belgium Centre for Comic Strip Art until 02/07/07.

Flystyrt i Thule 1968: MEP’er behandler klage vedrørende følgevirkningerne
1968 Nuclear crash: MEPs consider petition on aftermath
En lille del af de klager Parlamentet modtager
Just some of the petitions Parliament receives
En kold og stormfuld januardag i 1968 styrtede en amerikansk bombemaskine ned ved Thulebasen i det nordvestlige Grønland, lastet med atomvåben.
On a cold and windy Sunday in January 1968, a US bomber with nuclear weapons crashed near Thule Air base in North-West Greenland.
Lokale beboere og personale fra basen ilede til stedet for at hjælpe.
Locals and US personnel from the base ran to the crash site to see if there was anything they could do.
Jeffry Carswell var en af dem, der ryddede op i vragdelene efter styrtet.
Jeffry Carswell was one person who helped clear up the debris from the crash.
Han har senere udviklet kræft, og han hævder, at den danske regering ikke gjorde nok for at håndtere konsekvenserne af ulykken.
He later developed cancer and holds that the Danish government did not sufficiently deal with the consequences of the crash.
Hans klage blev debatteret i Parlamentet onsdag.
His petition asking for redress will be debated by MEPs today.
Efter indførelsen af hjemmestyret i 1979, besluttede Grønland ved en folkeafstemning i 1985 at forlade EU.
Moreover, after achieving home rule in 1979 from Denmark, Greenland eventually voted to leave the EEC in 1985.
Sagens karakter og de spørgsmål den rejser om ansvar, er en af grundene til, at Parlamentets Udvalg for Andragender nu har taget den sjældne artikel 192 i brug.
The unusual nature of the case - and the questions it raises about responsibility - is one of the reasons Parliament's Petitions committee has invoked the sparingly-used Rule 192.
Denne regel giver mulighed for at en betænkning, der vedrører en klage, kan sendes til afgørelse foran hele Parlamentet.
This rule allows a report on a petition to be submitted to the whole House.
”Konsekvenserne af atom-uheld for almindelige borgere”
"Consequences which nuclear accidents have for ordinary citizens"
Parlamentets ordfører i sagen er den britiske liberale Diana Wallis.
Parliament's rapporteur on the issue is British Liberal MEP Diana Wallis.
Hun sagde forud for debatten onsdag, at sagen involverer mere end blot Grønland og Danmark, eftersom det handler om ”de konsekvenser, et atom-uheld har for almindelige mennesker.
Speaking ahead of the debate on Wednesday she said the issue is much wider than Greenland and Denmark as it is about "the consequences which nuclear accidents have for ordinary citizens.
Sagen rejser principielle spørgsmål og har betydning for mange borgere i hele Europa”.
It raises questions of principle and has implications for many citizens across Europe".
Hun tilføjede, at ”betænkningen (om Jeffry Carswells klage) sender et venligt men bestemt signal til alle medlemsstater, om at almindelige menneskers sikkerhed og sundhed er altafgørende i sådanne sager”.
She went on to say that "the report (on Mr Carswell petition) sends a firm but careful message to all Member States that health and safety considerations of individual citizens must be paramount in such situations".
Et juridisk hovedspørgsmål er, om Euratom-traktaten kan anvendes på sagen.
A key legal aspect is the applicability - or not - of the Euratom Treaty.
Danmark havde ikke underskrevet traktaten i 68 og har derfor nægtet at anerkende dens gyldighed.
Denmark was not a signatory to the treaty in '68 and has therefore refused to recognise its applicability.
MEP’er i Udvalget for Andragender er uenige i denne holdning.
MEPs on the Petitions Committee disagree with this analysis.
Ret til at klage siden Maastricht
Right of petition since Maastricht
EU-Traktaten (Maastricht-aftalen) har siden 1993 givet EU-borgere ret til at indgive klager og andre andragender over EU’s aktiviteter og politik til Europa-Parlamentet.
The Treaty on the European Union (Maastricht) has since 1993 given EU citizens the right to petition the European Parliament to raise concerns regarding the activities and policies of the European Union.
Alene sidste år modtog Udvalget for Andragender over 1000 sådanne klager.
Last year alone Parliament's Petition's Committee received over 1000 such petitions.
Når der indgives en klage, undersøger udvalget alle de relevante beviser, før der træffes en afgørelse.
When petitions are received the Committee hears all the relevant evidence before reaching a decision.
Udvalget kan forlange, at Europa-Kommissionen eller et af medlemslandene skrider til handling i en sag eller indenfor et område.
They can press the European Commission or individual countries to take action on a specific case or areas.
Hvis Kommissionen er tilstrækkeligt sikker i sin sag, kan den rejse spørgsmålet ved EF-domstolen, hvis afgørelse vil være juridisk bindende.
If sufficiently convinced, the Commission can instigate legal proceedings at the European Court of Justice - the result of which will be legally binding.
MEP’er kan desuden vedtage resolutioner, for at vise deres politiske støtte til en klager.
MEPs cans also pass resolutions to show their political support for a petitioner.
Efter debatten onsdag aften vil MEP’erne torsdag stemme om en resolution, der vedrører Carswells klage.
After the debate this Wednesday evening MEPs will vote on a resolution on Thursday concerning Mr Carswell's petition.
Som nævnt håndterer Udvalget for Andragender som regel sagerne selv, og det er en sjældenhed, at artikel 192 anvendes og en sag forelægges for hele Parlamentet.
As mentioned, the use of rule 192 and the involvement of the whole House are rare since the Petitions Committee usually deals with these issues.
I en tilsvarende sag samme år vedtog Parlamentet en resolution om de græske myndigheders konfiskation af biler.
Another such case happened the same year, when the EP adopted a resolution on the confiscation of automobiles by the Greek authorities.

Onsdag under EP-Samlingen
Wednesday in Plenary: EU's relations with Russia centre stage
Rusland forbliver en vigtig partner for Europa, især når det handler om energi, men det vigtigste princip i forholdet mellem de to parter skal være respekten for menneskerettigheder, mener Europa-Parlamentet i en betænkning.
The resolution says that Russia remains an important partner for Europe, especially in the energy sector, but that democratic values and human rights must remain core principles of the relationship.
Ophævelsen af Ruslands boykot af kød fra Polen var også blandt Parlamentets krav.
It comes ahead of an EU-Russia summit on 18 May - a meeting some MEPs wanted cancelled amid the furore of the moving of a Soviet war monument by Estonia.
Parlamentet understregede sin opbakning til Ruslands medlemskab af verdenshandelsorganisationen WTO og hilste initiativerne for at ophæve visa-pligten mellem EU og Rusland velkommen.
The summit - due to be held in the Russian city of Samara - could mark an important step in the renewal of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement between the two.
Disse principper skal benyttes i forhold til store infrastrukturprojekter, som f.eks. gasrørledningen i Østersøen.
The existing one has been in place since 1997 and both sides are negotiating its renewal.
MEP'erne udtrykte dog dyb bekymring over de russiske myndigheders brug af magt i forhold til demonstranter i Moskva og St. Petersborg, og gentog at 'et solidt forsvar for menneskerettigheder og demokratiske værdier' skal være et bærende princip i ethvert EU-engagement i forhold til Rusland.
In the resolution MEPs welcomed greater dialogue over energy issues, the easing of visa restrictions and expressed support for Russia's membership of the WTO.
De var også bekymrede over de fortsatte meldinger om brug af tortur i Tjetjenien og begrænsningerne af de demokratiske friheder, for eksempel pressefriheden i forhold til de kommende valg.
However, the resolution, which was backed by the European People's Party and European Democrats (EPP-ED), the Socialist PSE, the Union of Europe for the Nations (UEN) and the European United Left (GUE/NGL) was critical of Russia over its human rights record.
MEP'erne ønskede desuden, at de russiske myndigheder skulle ophøre med at fratage visse politiske partier deres juridiske status og deres mulighed for at deltage i valg.
In particular the use of force by the Russian authorities to quell protests in Moscow and St. Petersburg and restrictions on the media.
Europa-Parlamentet støtter Estland
"Today, we are all Estonians"
Formanden for Europa-Parlamentet Hans-Gert Pöttering kom desuden med en støtte erklæring til Estland.
However, it was the furore over Estonia's decision to move a Soviet War memorial which saw the liveliest apart of the debate.
Forud for den officielle parlamentssamling denne uge i Bruxelles havde MEP'erne lejlighed til at lytte til en lang række europæiske Nobelprismodtagere, som var inviterede i anledning af 50 året for underskrivelsen af Rom-traktaten.
Joseph Daul, leader of the EPP-DE, told MEPs that "today, we are all Estonians".
Formanden for Europa-Parlamentet Hans-Gert Pöttering kom desuden med en støtte erklæring til Estland.
He warned Moscow that the Russian leadership would be making a "grave mistake" if they thought Europe would be divided over the issue.
"Schuman-erklæringen fra den 9. maj 1950 var ned til at give Europa det grundlag for at et fællesskab kunne udvikle sig mellem nationer som før var fjendtligt indstillet over for hinanden.
For the Socialist PSE Group Marianne Mikko, - who is herself Estonian - called for an end to the "cyber war" between the two sides as Russian hackers are apparently targeting Estonian news websites.
Det er med inspiration fra bl.a. Danmark, at EU-Kommissionen har foreslået regler for sidespejle på nye lastbiler.
The Russians need a clear signal that enough is enough".
Men også de ældre lastbiler udgør en stor fare for trafikanterne.
Road safety: MEPs want "blind spot" on lorries removed
Torsdag vedtog Parlamentet, at alle tunge lastbiler, som har været på vejene siden 2000, skal have monteret ekstra spejle senest den 31. marts 2009.
As the largest vehicles on the road, lorries need to be able to see other road users.
Hvert år bliver 400 europæere, heraf mange af cyklende børn, dræbt, når lastbilschauffører drejer til højre og overser trafikanterne i den blinde vinkel.
Every year about 400 people in Europe, many of them children, are killed in accidents involving lorries.
Ifølge et EU-direktiv fra 2003 skal nye lastvogn være udstyret med vidvinkelspejle fra 2007.
One of the most important causes of accidents is the "blind spot" where a driver cannot see other people in his mirrors.
Men med Paolo Costa (ALDE, IT) som ordfører vedtog Parlamentet, at disse spejle også skal monteres på ældre lastbiler - mere præcist alle lastbiler er registreret fra 1. januar 2000 og frem.
As the Parliament's rapporteur Paolo Costa (Liberal ALDE) put it, "at current replacement rates, the EU population of some 5 million lorries would not be entirely replaced by 2023.
Det betyder, at de udenlandske lastbiler der kommer til Danmark også skal være udstyret med ekstra sidespejle.
It is estimated that the whole replacement project would cost €100 - 150 per lorry but could save up to 1,200 lives in Europe by 2020.
Nye regler for udbud af offentlig transport endelig på plads
Public transport: MEPs back public / private compromise
Parlamentet stemte torsdag efter seks års forhandlinger med Rådet om en andenbehandling af reglerne for offentlig vej - og jernbane-transport.
To what extent private sector should be involved in public transport was the subject of the second reading of a Regulation considered by MEPs.
De nye regler skal skabe balance mellem den private og offentlige sektor i uddelingen af kontrakter.
It concerns the awarding contacts of service between the private and public sector.
I mange byer bliver dele af bus - og togdriften overtaget af private.
In the first reading the EP extended the length of contracts to respectively 8 years for bus services and 15 years for rail.
Det er en stigende tendens i Europa.

Torsdag under EP-Samlingen
Thursday in Plenary: MEPs back better housing in Europe
Torsdag stemte Parlamentet om to betænkninger om regionalpolitikken.
MEPs have given their backing to using the European Regional Development Fund to invest in affordable and decent housing across the whole EU.
Den ene om bedre boliger ved hjælp af EU-støtte, og den anden om, hvordan regionalpolitikken kan være med til at styrke innovationen.
Voting on another report, MEPs supported a boost to innovation in Europe's regions through education and cross border cooperation.
Men der findes EU-støtte, som kan bruges til det, f.eks. ved at genudvikle offentlige områder, forbedre sikkerheden, forhindre kriminalitet og fremme effektiv brug af vand og energi og på den måde styrke den sociale integration.
At present the fund pays for the development of public areas, safety improvements, water and energy saving measures and support for social integration.
Bedre vilkår for nytænkning og innovation
Speaking in the debate he stressed the need for a wider approach: "the problem of a habitable lodging is not to be seen on its own.
