Det kan være svært at tro, men 10 millioner mennesker, som lever på vores eget kontinent, i Europa, i Belarus er nægtet demokrati.
It needs in particular to avoid excessively bureaucratic procedures which placed severe constraints on the capacity to reach to difficult situations.
Uddelingen af Sakharovprisen 2006 understreger dette stærkere end nogensinde før," sagde formanden for Europa-Parlamentet, Josep Borrell.
The promotion of political pluralism and parliamentary democracy, and support for parliamentary projects in favour of democracy and human rights, were also added to the mechanism by MEPs in the committee.
Aleksandr Milinkevitj lagde ud med at understrege, at prisen ikke kun er til ham men til alle de hviderussere, som deltog i de massive protestdemonstrationer i Minsk efter præsidentvalget den 19. marts 2006.
Parliament's role in the setting of strategic priorities and in the operation of the instrument was one of the main issues subject to negotiations between the EP, Council and Commission.
"Denne pris er til alle som fortsætter kampen.
It is also proposed that there should be a Commission/Parliament working group.
Vi er mange!
The financing instrument is aimed at the following areas:
Det er os, der vil have, at Belarus skal finde tilbage til familien af europæiske demokratier, og vi er klar til at ofre vores egen velfærd, vores frihed - ja selv vores liv for at nå dette mål".
(a) promotion and enhancement of participatory and representative democracy, including parliamentary democracy, and the processes of democratisation, mainly through civil society organisations, inter alia in:
Han understregede, at Belarus altid har været et europæisk land, men nærede ikke mange forhåbninger om, at landet under den nuværende regering ville komme nærmere EU.
ii) strengthening the rule of law, promoting the independence of the judiciary, encouraging and evaluating legal and institutional reforms, and promoting access to justice;
Milinkevitj brugte også Andrei Sakharovs egne ord til at beskrive situationen i Belarus.
vi a) supporting measures to facilitate the peaceful conciliation of group interests, including support for confidence-building measures relating to human rights and democratisation.
"Andrei Sakharov sagde: ''Tankefrihed er det eneste værn mod kollektive myter, der i hænderne på perfide hyklere og demagoger kan forvandles til et blodigt diktatur".
They condemned the coup in Fiji, called on governments and the United Nations to take tougher action over reported sexual abuse by UN troops in Liberia and Haiti, and criticised the government of Burma for its continuing oppression of its own people.
"Ganske enkelt fordi vi ikke har andet valg".
It also demands that the military forces "stand back and return power to the democratically elected government".
Lidt baggrund om Milinkevitj
Reconciling ethnic groups
I oktober 2005 blev Milinkevitj valgt til at være oppositionens kandidat til præsidentvalget 2006 af Hvideruslands forenede demokratiske kræfter.
Moreover, development aid to Fiji worth 23 million euros was restored by the EU in 2004, with the aim of providing equal access to education and training for all ethnic groups.
Det officielle resultat gav Milinkevitj 6 % af stemmerne, mod 83 % til den siddende præsident Aleksandr Lukasjenko, der har siddet ved magten siden 1994.
Noting also that the Commonwealth has decided to suspend Fiji’s membership of its decision‑making councils, the resolution issues a call for "the EU Commission and Member States to suspend immediately all non‑humanitarian aid to Fiji, as specified in Article 96 of the Cotonou Partnership Agreement, with the exception of educational programmes, provided that these are implemented by NGOs".
I april 2006 sad Milinkevitj fængslet i 15 dage for at have deltaget i et "ulovligt møde".
In addition, MEPs want "an immediate travel ban to prevent members of the military forces, their families or any person linked to the coup d’état in Fiji from entering the Member States of the European Union".
Han har studeret fysik og matematik og har blandt andet en akademisk karriere bag sig.
It points out that, under the Statute establishing the International Criminal Court, rape, sexual slavery, enforced prostitution and any form of sexual violence are crimes against humanity and war crimes.
Milinkevitj har endvidere været viceborgmester i Hrodna.
It adds that the recent claims concerning children in Haiti and Liberia being subjected to rape and prostitution by UN peacekeepers make this the latest in a sad series of similar scandals.
I 2001 var han kampagneleder for Siamion Domaš, som var en af de oppositionsledere, der stillede op til præsidentvalget 2001 i Hviderusland.
There are nearly 100,000 UN peacekeepers in the world, and the resolution acknowledges that the vast majority of these serve loyally and honourably, but it says their contributions to peace and security "are undermined by the serious sexual abuses by a small number of individual UN personnel".
Hviderusland omtales ofte som Europas sidste diktatur.
Governments and UN must bring perpetrators to justice
Internationale menneskerettigheds- og medieorganisationer har stærkt kritiseret, at grundlæggende rettigheder som ytrings-, forenings- og forsamlingsfrihed ikke respekteres.
Pointing out that UN personnel expelled from the organisation for sexual exploitation are rarely prosecuted in their country of origin, MEPs call on "Member States of the UN sending personnel on peacekeeping missions to follow up all claims of sexual abuse and exploitation, particularly those which concern minors, and to bring those individuals who have committed sexual abuses to court as quickly as possible".
En valgobservatør-delegation fra Europa-Parlamentet blev nægtet indrejse i landet.
The resolution welcomes the UN Secretary General's announcement about a forthcoming strategy to assist victims of sexual exploitation and abuse as well as the use of DNA sampling to prevent further abuses.
Ifølge OSCE (Organisationen for sikkerhed og samarbejde i Europa) levede valget ikke op til demokratiske standarder, og var ikke frit og retfærdigt.
However, it expresses "serious concern over reports of a 'culture of silence' in some UN missions, stemming from the fear of punishment and retaliation" and therefore "calls on the UN to take all necessary steps to create a working environment enabling staff to report abuses without fear of retaliation".
Europa-Parlamentet efterlyste i en beslutning et "nyt, demokratisk valg snarest muligt" og " sanktioner, der vil ramme undertrykkerne hårdt uden samtidig at forvolde Belarus' borgere yderligere lidelser".
Unless the UN can urgently put a stop to this behaviour it will have a detrimental impact on the credibility and moral authority of the institution as a whole, say MEPs, and some Member States may reduce the number of their troops at a time when there is a strong need for peace-keeping missions.
Aleksandr Milinkevitj har ud over sit besøg i forbindelse med prisen besøgt Europa-Parlamentet to gange i 2006, henholdsvis før og efter præsidentvalget.
The resolution calls on the UN and the EU to support measures to empower women in conflict and post-conflict situations so that they are less vulnerable to sexual exploitation.
Sakharov-Prisen for tankefrihed er siden 1988 blevet uddelt hvert år af Europa-Parlamentet.
Parliament says the National Convention, whose purpose is to draft a constitution, "lacks any credibility due to the absence of democratically elected representatives, most notably the National League for Democracy (NLD), as well as ethnic groups".
Prisen gives til personer eller organisationer, der bekæmper undertrykkelse, intolerance og uretfærdighed over alt i verden.
They insist that all aid destined for Burma must be delivered through genuine non-governmental organisations and must reach the people for whom it is intended, with the least possible involvement of the SPDC.
Sidste års pris blev delt af tre prismodtagere: Den cubanske protestbevægelse "Kvinder i Hvidt", den nigerianske menneskerettighedsforkæmper Hauwa Ibrahim og en forening, der forsvarer pressefriheden, "Journalister uden Grænser".
Lastly, Parliament calls on the UN Security Council "to pass a binding resolution requiring the restoration of democracy in Burma and the release of all political prisoners" (estimated to number over 1100), including Aung San Suu Kyi, who has spent 10 out of the last 16 years under house arrest, an illegal measure that the military junta extends every year.

Danske regler for grundvand sikret
European Parliament says EU must reform before enlarging further
Danmark kan få lov til at beholde sine stramme regler om grundvand.
This comes in a report on the institutional reforms required to improve the EU's capacity to integrate new Member States.
Et forlig, der giver hele Danmark lov til at være én stor beskyttelseszone.
"No-one wants to be "absorbed" by the European Union", he said.
Danmark er blandt de eneste lande i EU, der ikke renser grundvandet.
Fourthly, making sure there is adequate public debate around enlargement.
Men i de fleste andre lande bliver vandet renset og måske tilsat klor inden det løber til hanen.
We have to pay closer attention than ever before to how it happens in practice, improving the quality of enlargement and developing the Union's readiness and capacity for enlargement.
For at beskytte vores grundvand har vi i Danmark derfor forbudt langt flere pesticider end de andre lande i EU.
Regarding Turkey, "The Presidency has done everything in its power to keep the negotiations going.
Medlemslandene vil have 2 år til at implementere reglerne, som derfor vil få virkning fra 2009.
"We have always told citizens that negotiations would be suspended if conditions were not met, but now we seem to be doing the opposite" he said.
Ordfører: Christa KLASS PPE-DE DE Procedure: Den fælles beslutningsprocedure - Tredjebehandling (***III)
Jim ALLISTER (NA, UK) complained that "the proponents of the rejected Constitution see enlargement as a bandwagon for securing its approval".

Kemikalielovgivning REACH vedtaget
MEPs adopt EU budget for 2007 at €126.5bn for 27 Member States
Onsdag kunne Parlamentet sætte punktum for en af de største lovgivningspakker i EU nogensinde, kemikalielovgivningen REACH.
Following the vote, commitments appropriations for next year are set at €126.5bn, payments at €115.5bn, equalling 0.99 % of GNI.
Parlamentet vedtog med stemmerne 529 for 98 imod og 24 der undlod, det kompromis, som var indgået mellem Parlamentets ordførere og Rådet forinden.
The 2007 budget is the first one to deal with an Union of 27 member states, following the accession of Bulgaria and Romania on 1 January of next year.
De nye regler vil gøre det op til producenterne at bevise at deres stoffer ikke er farlige, ligesom de farligste stoffer skal udskiftes med mindre farlige.
The crux throughout the preparation has been the question of posts at the Commission, as well as expenditure for the Common Foreign Security Policy - CFSP.
Ordføreren Guido Sacconi (PSE, IT) var også glad for resultatet.
Now, our task consists of taking the value for money approach further by establishing a mechanism for an annual evaluation of performance of specific programmes.
"For at opnå denne aftale har vi skulle bestige Himmalaya" sagde han under debatten.
I warmly welcome that the Commission supports this approach."
"Det er vigtigste er, at vi i dag har et sæt regler, der kan beskytte os mod de mest farlige stoffer, som nu skal autoriseres.
A joint declaration by the EP and the Commission stresses the need to integrate such a "value for money approach" in the yearly budgetary procedure.
I forhold til at nå derop var vores udgangspunkt billedligt talt langt nede i dalen", sagde han.
Heading 1a and 1b, "Sustainable growth"
Afstemningen i Parlamentet sætter punktum for en lang og drøj kamp mellem miljøorganisationerne på den ene side og kemiindustrien på den anden om EU's nye kemikalieregler - også kendt under navnet REACH, (Den engelske forkortelse af 'registrering, evaluering og autorisation af kemikalier).
Parliament sees Lisbon Agenda lines as pivotal for the EU ; reaffirming its Annual Political Strategy views, the EP has spread a number of payment increases on lines dealing with research and innovation which aim at boosting European competitiveness, while regretting that Council had cut them in the first place.
For de farligste stoffer skal producenterne komme med en substitutionsplan for at udskifte dem med sikrere alternativer.
Parliament is unhappy with the cuts across the board applied by Council for farm spending as the Common Agricultural Policy sees the application of new implementation rules in 2007.
Hvis der ikke findes alternativer skal producenterne fremlægge en plan for, hvordan de vil arbejde på at finde alternativer.
Most particularly, the EP deplores that Council rejected the proposal to fund a vaccine for the Blue Tongue disease under that heading, a failure compensated by the Commission's initiative to work on it in the Research budget.
For at mindske antallet af dyreforsøg vil REACH fremme metoder, der ikke involverer dyr, og sørge for, at de samme dyreforsøg ikke bliver lavet flere gange forskellige steder.
Parliament restored its increase for the External Borders Fund to €170m to allow EU surveillance missions.
Omkring 30.000 stoffer vil blive registeret og evalueret - tidsfristerne kommer til at afhænge af, hvor farlige stofferne er, og i hvor store mængder de bliver produceret.
While the Budget Committee agreed to grant the amount of € 159.2 million to the CFSP (initially set at this level by the Commission in its Pre-Draft Budget), Council committed itself providing European lawmakers with timely and forward looking information on planned individual CFSP actions and decisions.
Alle stoffer skal være registreret i 2018.
The up-coming mission in Kosovo is one example where the EP urges council to be informed.
3000 af de mest farlige stoffer skal gennem en godkendelsesproces, administreret af det nye kemikalieagentur i Helsinki, hvor producenterne skal komme med planer for udskiftning af stofferne for at få lov til at bruge dem for en begrænset tidsperiode.
After Parliament's first reading, 50% of CFSP appropriations had been cut and spread on a number of other lines of the heading, a move which struck a chord among key stakeholders of the negotiation on B07.
Agenturet kan begynde sit arbejde fra 1. januar 2008.
Parliament has stayed within the ceiling of heading 4, "The EU as a global partner".
Danske MEPere i debatten
Heading 5, "administration"
Under debatten i salen mandag aften var to danske MEP'ere på talerstolen.
Parliament defeated Council's approach to cut the staff of the European Commission.
Jens-Peter Bonde (IND-DEM, DK) ønskede, at de nye regler ikke skulle være en totalharmonisering men minimumsregler, som landene selv kunne stramme bagefter.
Nevertheless, the members insisted that a substantive screening exercise providing a mid-term evaluation of the Commission's staff needs is carried out.
"At beskytte miljø og helbred anses for konkurrenceforvridende i det indre marked.
This screening exercise should comprise a detailed report on the Commission's staffing of support and coordination functions.
Som totalharmonisering er forslaget for ringe for os", sagde han.
This decision has been confirmed in today's vote in Plenary.
Den ladeport er næsten blevet lukket.
Other institutions
Vi har fået et kompromis, som er godt for miljø og sundhed," sagde han.
The so-called "other institutions", for which Mr Louis Grech (PES, MT) is the rapporteur, deal among others with Parliament's budget for next year.

Parlamentet vedtager regler for TV-reklamer og produktplacering
A cleaner, greener future for EU energy policy
Reklamer skal være tilladt hver halve time i film og forskellige andre typer programmer i fjernsynet.
The European Parliament says there should be binding targets for reducing carbon dioxide emissions and on increasing the use of renewable energy sources.
Til gengæld skal produktplacering kun være tilladt i begrænset omfang.
These views are set out in a wide ranging report on the Commission's energy strategy proposals, adopted by a large majority on Thursday, 14 December.
Det vedtog Europa-Parlamentet onsdag i førstebehandlingen af de nye europæiske regler for bl.a. reklamer og produktplacering i audiovisuelle medier.
In the report, drawn up by Eluned Morgan (PES, UK), Parliament welcomes the Commission's green paper on a European strategy for sustainable, competitive and secure energy, but stresses that changing conditions in the broader global energy market need to be taken into account.
De er dog tale om minimumsregler, som landene selv kan gøre strammere.
MEPs want a systematic approach considering production, distribution and consumption in order to develop a policy which secures affordable energy.
De nye regler, som Parlamentet stemte om, fastlægger retningslinjer i forhold til annoncering i de europæiske tv-stationer i Europa.
To tackle climate change, MEPs say EU leaders should agree within the next year on a binding CO2 target for 2020 and an indicative one for 2050.
Under det ligger dog også et ønske om at tilpasse reglerne til den nye teknologi, da det tidligere direktiv f.eks. ikke dækkede digitalt tv.
MEPs call for an EU strategy on transport energy use, aiming at the phasing out of fossil fuel, a reduction in oil dependency and the gradual introduction of clean energy.
Der vil også blive skelnet mellem to forskellige typer audiovisuelle tjenester.
Parliament recognises the role that nuclear energy plays in some Member States as part of the energy mix and as a way of avoiding CO2 emissions, but says decisions on the future of nuclear power must be taken by the Member States individually.
Medlemslandene kan stadig tillade det i biograffilm , tv-film og tv-serier og sportstransmissioner samt i de tilfælde, hvor der er tale om 'produktionshjælp', altså at varen eller tjenesten stilles gratis til rådighed.
The proposed Regulation is aimed at supporting efforts to enhance nuclear safety, radiation protection and the application of efficient and effective safeguards of nuclear materials in third countries.
I de tilfælde hvor produktplacering er tilladt, er der visse restriktioner.
The substance of the proposal is to provide financial, economic and technical assistance complementary to any assistance that is normally provided for under the other external cooperation instruments for the years 2007 - 2013.
Endelig skal seerne gøres klart opmærksom på, hvis der finder produktplacering sted.
The financial instrument should not be used "for paying taxes, customs duties or other fiscal charges in beneficiary countries".
Det skal gøres inden programmets start og med et signal hvert 20 minut under udsendelsen, så seerne ikke er i tvivl om, at der finder produktplacering sted.
They shall set out the Community’s strategy for the provision of assistance under this Regulation, having regard to the needs of the countries concerned, the Community’s priorities, the international situation and the activities of the main partners.
Nye regler for reklameblokkene
Implementing biomass as an alternative font of energy
Parlamentet vedtog desuden at ændre Kommissionens forslag i forhold til, hvor tit visse udsendelser må afbrydes af reklamer.
The importance of developing the investigation and the application of biomass and biofuels to become one of the most important sources of energy in the EU in the future is in the centre of the report by Werner LANGEN (EPP-ED, DE), adopted by the European Parliament.
I tv-film, biograf-film, børne-programmer og nyhedsprogrammer må der således være reklame-afbrydelser hvert 30 minut og ikke, som Kommissionen havde foreslået, hver 35. minut eller som Parlamentets kulturudvalg havde foreslået, hvert 45. minut.
Members urge the Commission to work for a European market for biomass and call the Members States to eliminate barriers inside and between them.
Reklamespot og teleshopping spot må heller ikke udgøre mere end 12 minutter pr. sendetime.
Biomass can be an alternative font of energy in Europe and can reduce dependence on imports and fossil fuels.
Beskyttelse af mindreårige mod pornografi og umotiveret vold
The objectives settled for the use of renewable energies in the EU are 12% in 2010 made up of a share of 21% for the electricity sector and of 5.75% for biofuels.
Parlamentet ønsker desuden, at medlemslandene skal træffe "passende foranstaltninger for at sikre, at de medietjenesteudbydere, som hører under deres jurisdiktionen ikke indeholder programmer, som i alvorlig grad kan skade mindreåriges fysiske, mentale og moralske udvikling, især programmer, som viser pornografi eller umotiveret vold".
They also ask the Commission "to introduce a mandatory and comprehensive certification scheme allowing sustainable production of biofuels at all stages, including standards for the cultivation and processing phases as well as for the overall life-cycle greenhouse gas balance, applicable to biofuels both produced within, and imported into, the European Union".
Ruth HIERONYMI PPE-DE DE Procedure: Den fælles beslutningsprocedure - Førstebehandling (***I)
The Parliament "is convinced that the sustainable production and use of biomass offers considerable advantages for developing countries and technology transfer with these thirds countries and (underlines that) the export of bioenergy technologies should be supported by the European Union".

Fokus på Rusland
MEPs set new rules on TV commercials and product placement
Europa-Parlamentet går ind for at forhandle en ny partnerskabsaftale med Rusland for at styrke samarbejdet, bl.a. på energiområdet.
The European Parliament backed a proposed overhaul of the advertising rules for TV channels in Europe, including a new approach to product placement.
Samtidig er Parlamentet imidlertid foruroliget over udviklingen på menneskerettighedsområdet i Rusland.
Parliament agreed to allow breaks for commercials in movies and some other TV programmes every 30 minutes.
Vigtig samarbejdspartner
Strict limits on product placement
Rusland er en af EU's vigtigste samarbejdspartnere, ikke bare fordi EU importerer ca. en fjerdedel af sin gas og olie fra Rusland, men også fordi samarbejdet har central betydning for stabilitet, sikkerhed og velfærd i hele Europa.
Member States could still permit it "in cinematographic works, films and series made for television and sports broadcasts", as well as in cases of "production props where no payment is made but certain goods or services are merely provided for free of charge with a view to their inclusion in a programme."
Derfor giver det anledning til en vis bekymring, at der på det seneste topmøde mellem EU og Rusland i Helsinki den 24. november 2006 ikke var muligt at indlede forhandlinger om en ny rammeaftale mellem de to parter til afløsning af den eksisterende partnerskabs- og samarbejdsaftale, der udløber i 2007.
Lastly, viewers should be appropriately notified of the existence of product placement in such programmes, "at the start and the end of the programme and by a signal at least every 20 minutes during the programme".
I den anledning har Europa-Parlamentet vedtaget et fælles beslutningsforslag, hvori det fremhæver Ruslands betydning som strategisk samarbejdspartner.
In cases of production props the viewer should be informed of the use of any such aid "by appropriate means".
