I denne forbindelse er jeg helt enig med dem, som på den internationale socialistiske kongres i de seneste dage også over for den nye amerikanske regering har fremhævet, at afspændingen for os europæere er en absolut uomgåelig nødvendighed. dighed.
For instance, there is the agricultural sector with the step-by-step elimination of customs tariffs; there is the social aspect, where the central element is the provisions affecting Turkish workers employed in the Community and their families; there is the question of economic and technological cooperation; and there is also the financial aspect, where the central element is the setting-up of the cooperation fund and the fourth financial protocol.
Eu ropa­Pariamen tets forhandlinger
Debates of the European Parliament
os på at finde en tilfredsstillende formel, der tillader en fortsat udbygning af EPS blandt medlemsstaterne, og samtidig opretholder og udbygger kontakten med lande, der står udenfor.
As regards the elimination of customs duties on agricultural products, this will be tackled automatically by reference to a fixed timetable.
Det er et krav, som rettes til regeringerne, men som samtidigt — og det er vi fuldstændig klar over — rettes til de poli­tiske og sociale magter og først og fremmest dem, der repræsenterer arbejderbevægelsen og arbejderbefolk­ningen med deres idealer for fred, retfærdighed og solidaritet.
Mr Blumenfeld. — (D) Madam President, on behalf of the Group of the European People's Party, I should like to begin by thanking Mr Thorn most warmly for what he has done, not only as a minister in his govern ment, but also — and particularly — as President-in-Office of the Council over the last few months.
Vi har her et omfattende område, hvor venstrepartierne på trods af deres divergenser bør forsøge at finde sammen og stille fælles forslag.
He has shown a great degree of openmindedness and under standing for many of the parliamentary quirks we tend to indulge in here.
Dette er noget, som vi italienske kommunister i lang tid har arbejdet henimod, og»som vi fortsat vil kæmpe for i den uafhængige ånd, som præger os, og som gør, at vi altid er åbne over for en dialog med alle de andre magter, som kæmper for fred og fremskridt.
He has at any rate given us all the information he could, and I should like to take this opportunity of thanking him, this being the last time he will appear in this House in his present capacity.
Denne konflikt er naturligvis også tynget af gidselaffæren.
The negotiations needed before this offer can be implemented have not yet begun.
Men vort Europa, som dette område er af åbenlyst vital betydning for, har frie hænder i denne sag, og fordi vi har frie hænder, i modsætning til så mange andre, beklager vi, at Europa, trods den manglende tro på, at det kan lykkes, vi kan konsta­tere her og der, ikke gør sig mere gældende, og griber ind med et forslag, der kan bedre chancerne for at begrænse en konflikt, der — som vi vil få at se i de kommende uger — kan få uoverskuelige konse­kvenser for Europas liv.
This aspect differs from the automatic processes and the contacts at expert level in that, as regards the fourth financial protocol, we have made the Turkish Government aware of the importance of ratification in this matter.
Det er muligt, man ikke tror på det i europæiske kredse, men vi mener, at vor indgriben er nødvendig og uopsættelig.
The ratification of agree ments is, after all, generally a matter for parliaments, and this will doubtless be an important point in the process of normalization.
Haagerup. — Fru formand, selv om landene i De europæiske Fællesskaber endnu langt fra taler med én stemme, som det kaldes, så er der mange vidnesbyrd om det politiske samarbejdes positive udvikling.
We have also left the other side in no doubt that all the steps to be taken to implement the decisions taken by the Association Council will of course depend on the undertakings spelled out in the Foreign Ministers' and the Commission's statements regarding the restoration of democratic conditions and respect of human rights being fulfilled.
Et af disse vidnesbyrd er den store interesse, der udvises for EPS, som det politiske samarbejde kaldes, fra andre landes side, både uden for, men naturligvis især inden for Europa, herunder andre demokratiske lande, som er med i Europarådet, men ikke i EF, og som hr. Glinne henviste til i sit indlæg.
There can be no doubt that European political cooperation among the Nine has worked better this year under the Italian and Luxembourg presidencies than it did previously, thanks to the improved channels of communication and the fact that the challenges facing Europe in 1980 were clear for all to see.
Den afspejler den positive norske interesse for et nærmere forhold til Fællesskaberne og til de Ni's politiske samarbejde.
I am thinking here particularly of the preparations for the Madrid Conference, which I shall be dealing with a little later.
Og det kan efter vores opfattelse kun være i vor egen interesse, at man udbygger og udvider sådanne kontakter, som det norske initiativ er et eksempel på.
There is one point I should like to add, though, and that is that we, the Group of the European People's Party, feel bound to express our continuing dissatisfaction at the inadequate cooperation between EPC and this House, and this despite the great trouble taken by Mr Thorn on such occasions as last week, when we were given information immediately after the meeting of the Foreign Ministers in Luxembourg.
Efter min korte kommentar til denne konflikt vil jeg gerne sige et par ord om Madrid­konferencen, som vi altid har sagt, vi går ind for.
None the less, Parliament has not really been addressed at all over the last eight months by the Ministers.
Mens vi som en selvfølge bør fastholde Fællesskabernes åbenhed over for andre lande, herunder også til dem der som Norge og Sverige ikke for nærværende omgås med planer om at søge direkte optagelse i EF, så vil det politiske samerbejde uundgåeligt bære præg af den særlige karakter, det får ved at blive realiseret af lande, som har tilsluttet sig Fællesskabet.
Nor can we — on the basis of official reports and without any further research — determine whether these trials are of a political or criminal nature: The early statements made by the military authorities in Ankara referred to this distinction.
Betingelser er der mange af, jeg skal ikke opregne dem alle..
I would stress the need for full and comprehensive information, including information of a political nature.
Jeg skal give nogle få for ikke at tage derned og på nogen måde undskylde eller for den sags skyld glemme Afghanistan, som altid bør være lige om hjørnet i disse forhandlinger.
For that reason, we believe the suggested visit by a parliamentary delegation to be an interesting idea; a mission of this kind would at any rate be highly valuable as regards the Commission's future activities in this matter.
Jeg vil gerne associere mig med det spørgsmål, hr. Glinne stillede til udenrigsministerrådets formand.
I should like to comment briefly on two main issues, the first of which is the'Madrid Conference.
Efter min og min gruppes opfattelse må vi bestræbe
We are very pleased, Mr Thorn, that you took the opportunity at short notice of speaking on behalf of the Community in Madrid in your capacity as President-in-Office of the Council of Ministers, because it is
Det gælder også der om ikke at fortie den mangel på frihed, som tredie kurv er sat til at udforske.
Blumenfeld important that the European view be made known at the Conference in what is a very serious situation.
nævnt, blev kommenteret med tomme ord, og der blev omtalt initiativer, der var så modstridende, at de umuligt kan være effektive.
I wonder how the Europeans can think of resuming the Euro-Arab dialogue as if this were a purely routine affair, and despite the fact that — to my utter astonishment — the Presidency of the Arab League is already, this November, prematurely in the hands of a member of the Executive Committee of the PLO.
Hvad er for eksempel ideen med at anerkende det palæstinænsiske folks selvbestemmelsesret og vise sin begejstring for Camp David-aftalerne, når en sådan politik er ensbetydende med, at man fornægter denne selvbestemmelsesret? Og dette er blot et eksempel, som jeg har ønsket at give i den korte taletid, der er blevet mig tildelt.
We were told in the course of the discussions between the Political Affairs Committee and the President-in-Office of the Council that it had been agreed that the Arab League would be presided over next year by a repesentative of the PLO.
Jeg mener bestemt ikke, at dette er måden at opbygge Europas uafhængighed på. Og man må være klar over, at dette er så meget desto mere sandt, nu hvor man har valgt en mand som Reagan til præsident for De forenede Stater, for det vil betyde at den margen, den bevægelsesfrihed, vi råder over til at opnå denne uafhængighed, som vi forestiller os, vi vil være i stand til at nå frem til helt smertefrit og gratis, nødvendigvis må blive meget mindre.
There is probably nothing we can do about that, but why has a high-ranking representative of the PLO now been allowed to open the Euro-Arab dialogue as President of the Arab League, and why have you not protested about this?
Hvis Europa vil undgå at blive udslettet fuldstændigt, er det nødvendigt, at det træffer konkrete foranstaltninger til at imødegå et sammenstød med en amerikansk politik, der sigter mod at reducere Europa til en sattelit.
This is something I am bound to ask you, because it is perfectly obvious that, if the PLO representative — in his capacity as President of the Arab League — has his way, this political dialogue will degenerate into a purely political confrontation aimed at the United States and Israel. Surely that cannot be what our European policy is aiming at.
Og så er der konsekvenserne: den frie verden er skrumpet meget ind i det sidste tiår. Den må nu gøre sine tab op.
European cooperation in the widest sense — in other words, détente — has suffered a serious setback.
Hvis ikke den nu sætter sin vilje ind og griber til stærkere midler, vil Helsinkikonferencen, som kunne give gode resultater, kunne blive et nyt ulyksaligt München, som måske ikke var fordømme ligt i sig selv, men som blevet det, fordi de vestlige demokratier ikke ville lære af det.
Our view is that we are now so far removed from the spirit of Helsinki that many people are right in opposing the continuation of détente.
Nuvel, også i Madrid må den frie verden drage konsekvenserne og sige, at nu har den fået nok af sovjetisk indblanding og udvidelsestrang i Asien, Afrika og andre steder, direkte og indirekte og især via mellemmænd.
Many of the principles agreed on in Helsinki have been seriously violated by the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and any more such violations — for instance, in Poland — could spell the end of the Madrid Conference and of the Final Act.
Enhver er fri i denne verden, må være fri til at vælge sin egen skæbne, og ingen skal være nødt til at lade sig påtvinge et valg, en skæbne, som kommer udefra.
I believe we should tell the governments of the Nine that they should give priority at the Conference to a balanced consideration of the three baskets in their consultations, speeches, discussions and other work, and that the question of human rights in particular must not be overshadowed by a discussion on arms limitation pure and simple.
Det eneste, der kan forhindre, at det sovjetiske overherredømme breder sig til den tredje verden, er et Europa, som udgør et positivt referencepunkt for udviklingsbefolkningerne, og som er i stand til ikke blot af frelse dem fra neo-kolonialismen, men også — som det er tilfældet i visse latinamerikanske lande bl.a.
This is a matter for the Turkish people, and we hope to hear as soon as possible from the current military government in Turkey that it genuinely intends to make progress towards a return to parliamentary democracy, so that we are not once again faced with a regime like the colonels' in Greece. I think Mr Glinne's suggestion that a delegation from the European Parliament should be sent to Turkey as soon as possible is an excellent one.
El Salvador — befri dem for den byrde, som den amerikanske støtte til grusomme diktaturer, er ensbetydende med.
We have just heard Mr Haferkamp emphatically' confirm that the European Parliament has economic and social levers at its disposal.
Formanden. — Fru Castellina har ordet for gruppen for teknisk koordinering og forsvar for uafhængige grupper og medlemmer.
The second central element of Mr Thorn's speech concerned the Middle East, where there are — hardly surprisingly — differences of opinion within the Council of Ministers, Parliament and the various political groupings represented in this House.
Men for at opnå dette, må Europa forsøge at få en aftale i stand med de alliancefri lande og indlede en forbindelse som ikke længere må være baseret på uligevægtig handel, men derimod et nyt integreret og retfærdigt udviklingssystem for den tredje verden, som er integreret og retfærdigt.
But as regards your statement on behalf of the Nine that developments since the Venice Conference have proved you right and confirmed your own view and that of the Nine that the search for a comprehensive solution should be persevered with, allow me to ask the Nine whether they have really registered the fact that, since June of this year, we have seen not only serious military conflicts like that between Iraq and Iran, but also important political changes in the whole structure of the Middle East.
Det er imidlertid desværre ikke det, man gør — og dette er Europas egentlige problem: den interne politik er bevis på stadig større divergenser, og som om dette ikke var nok, hælder man i stadig højere grad til en mere restriktiv økonomisk politik, hvor man skærer ned på sociale omkostninger.
Let me also draw your attention to the fact that the United States of America will have a new President in January and that he will be following a completely different line from that of his predecessor on the Middle East arid on confront ation — otherwise known as the political conflict with the Soviet Union.
Dette er i modstrid'med den holdning, der blev gjort udtryk for i vore officielle redegørelser, især når det drejer sig om nord-syd.
In the light of all this, surely the European governments would be better advised not to take time off for reflection — as suggested by such people as the Federal German Chancellor — but rather to give all-out attention to the question of what policy they intend to pursue in future with the Americans on the Middle East.
Dette er min forklaring på at jeg langt fra er tilfreds med hr. Thorns redegørelse.
After all, the Middle East issue is of importance to both Americans and Europeans. peans.
endnu synes at.have til afspændingspolitikken, men fortsætte uden illusioner med en konkret indstilling tii problemerne — nødvendigt at drøfte alle »kurvene« samtidigt med alle afspændingspolitikkens forskellige aspekter, og først og fremmest at fremhæve, hvor absolut nødvendig sikkerheden og de foranstalt ninger, der skal garantere den, er, ¡det der hverken kan være tale om fred eller beskyttelse af menneske rettighederne, medmindre vi har denne sikkerhed; i modsat fald vil Madrid-konferencen på trods af den store indsats, alle har gjort, ende med blive endnu en illusion.
than a stalking horse — a cover — for behaving as aggressively as ever. It is true that in consequence of Afghanistan there have been some marginally useful agreements between EEC countries and the United States but I hope that from now on there will be far greater realization of what the Community acting in political cooperation and the United States can do together — two of the greatest economic units in the world.
Fru formand, tillad at også jeg takker rådsformanden for hans bidrag til vor debat om så vanskeligt et spørgsmål som det politiske samarbejde.
What signs are there, and I leave the question with Mr Thorn under whatever hat he chooses to consider it, now or in the future, that the Nine will marshal its economic muscle in self-defence against a Russian Communism which is still flagrantly on the move and threatens us economically no less than militarily?
Jeg håber, at vi fortsat vil være så heldige at kunne samarbejde med hr. Thorn i en anden kapacitet i forbindelse med Kommissionen.
But that Communism's Achilles' heel — its most vulnerable point — is the broken-down, discredited economic system on which it rests, a system and theory which decries human nature and which the West in its simpleness, and its greed too, with credits, technology and cheap food, chooses materially to sustain.
De begivenheder, der har karakteriseret den pågældende periode, har først og fremmest været den krig, der er brudt ud mellem Irak og Iran.
On the Middle East we have noted what the President has said and await with great interest the deliberations of the Council in early December.
Det sidstnævnte er ovenikøbet et land, som lider under total intern og international destabilisering efter revolutionen og Khomeinis fanatiske herredømme, hvilket udgør en fare for alle, og et af beviserne herfor er det penible og uløste problem i forbindelse med gidseltagningen.
We must observe nevertheless that although the Arab-Israeli dispute is traditionally the central issue in this arena, in Lebanon there are, as I understand it, 38 separate armies at work and 4 nations at least engaged directly and others by proxy in the fighting.
Efter vor mening kræver denne situation vor opmærksomhed i langt højere grad end rådsformanden forsigtigt antydede.
The situation there is hardly less desperate and even that one seems to us at times of minor importance compared to the war in the Gulf.
I øvrigt kunne hr. Thorn i forbindelse med den fri sejllads i Den persiske Golf, som er livsnødvendig for olieleverancerne til Europa blot bekræfte, at den er nødvendig, uden dog at sige et eneste ord om hvorledes denne fri sejllads kan sikres.
I wish we could have some confidence that an outbreak of calm in the area of Israel would spread much further afield. But we must commend of course nevertheless the efforts which Mr Thorn has made to create that calm.
I øvrigt omtalte han nødvendigheden af en genoptagelse af den euro-arabiske dialog, men hvilke helt faktiske muligheder eksisterer der i øjeblikket, for at dette kan lade sig gøre?
There are complementary means of restraining aggression, of restraining those who pursue revolution to the point of war among their neighbours. In a word, the hope of world peace must return when the Russian economy is obliged at last to concentrate on providing for itself not guns but butter.
Efter vor mening er det ikke let at sige.
And, if I may say so, their own butter.
Som vor formand har påpeget, må man begrænse sig til at håbe det, for situationen i Mellemøsten synes ikke at blive bedre, tværtimod bliver den mere og mere alvorlig, og dette viser, at de pågældende parter ikke er de bedst egnede til at løse det palæstinensiske og israeliske problem.
And may I conclude then by wishing the President-in-Office of the Council of Ministers all the best for his future as he proposes to take off one hat and prepares to put on another.
Jeg skal begrænse mig til et par bemærkninger vedrørende hr. Thorns indlæg idet jeg synes, at formanden for den socialistiske gruppe, hr. Glinne, har givet en udførlig redegørelse for det emne, som hr. Thorn omtalte.
We wish Turkish democracy and individual freedom there the speediest possible recovery and we are confident, I think with good reason, that its restoration to health will not be needlessly delayed and we shall do what we can by contact and encouragement to aid that convalescence.
Hvad angår Madrid-konferencen, som vi altid har støttet, er det — dersom man ikke blot fortsætter uden at løbe den risiko at afbryde den forbindelse, vi
In a year and a presidency of the greatest tension and lack of détente in East-West relations, when, and lately in the name of détente, the Soviet Union has openly regarded Communist revolution as a one-way ratchet, we are looking with growing impatience for some signs from the Council, from the West, of effective action to thwart Soviet expansionism.
Min første bemærkning vedrører Israel og Mellemøstpolitikken.
I do not believe that this is made clear in Mr Thorn's report: it is a care ful, measured report but neither its priorities nor its proposals are at the same level as our own responsibilities.
Udover hvad der er blevet sagt af andre af mine kolleger, mener jeg ikke, man kan fastlægge en
Until now, in fact, political cooperation between the EEC countries, which is to say the will to deter-
»original« Mellemøst-politik — og hermed mener jeg en europæisk politik — uden at risikere at blive redskab for de pågældende to parters politik.
mine common goals and initiatives in foreign policy, has not been at the level demanded by the serious nature of international relations and by the appalling problems which our world has to face today.
Jeg mener derfor, at Europa har gjort rigtigt i helt realistisk at erkende at der er to parter i denne konflikt, og dette på basis af en sikkerhed for staten Israel og for den fremtidige palæstinensiske stat; jeg tror imidlertid, at Europa ville være i stand til at spille en større rolle, når det gælder økonomiske initiativer i et område, hvor man nu i 30 år har ladet kanonerne tale i stedet for at tage fredelige initiativer.
There have been one or two efforts, one or two attempts in recent times but they are not only a long way from being a common foreign policy, but a long way from demonstrating effective coordination.
Møller. — Fru formand, jeg vil gerne knytte et par bemærkninger til det, som ordføreren for min gruppe, hr. Fergusson, sagde for lidt siden.
When that is lacking there is little sense in lamenting the fact, as some do, that any particular country has felt obliged to make individual initiatives.
For det er klart, at også vi støder på denne indsigelse mod vort medlemskab: I har jo ikke noget at skulle have sagt! Men her har det altså vist sig, at det mindste land kunne få noget at sige.
What is however also true is that these initiatives would have had far greater effect had they been given the full, joint support of the Nine.
Der er heller ingen tvivl om, at Afghanistan-spørgsmålet har standset afspændingen i Europa og i verden.
We are living in a world where more than a thousand million dollars a day are being spent on the arms race; a race which goes on unrestrained and which can lead only to universal disaster.
Dette siger vi naturligvis ikke fordi, det glæder os, men fordi vi mener, at dette er en realitet, som især mærkes hos offentligheden i Europa.
It is Europe, where the greatest concentration of total destruction weaponry is kept, which can and must make first steps to stop and then reverse this trend.
Vi siger det også, fordi vi er klar over, at der ikke findes noget politisk alternativ på verdensplan for afspændning. Hr. Berlinguer gav da også for lidt siden det løfte, at vi socialister og demokratiske socialister vil arbejde henimod afspændingen på alle niveauer.
We, the European Parliament, must appeal to all the governments represented at Madrid, to the USA and to the USSR, to the countries of the Warsaw pact and the Atlantic Alliance, to the neutrals and the non-aligned, that they should make it their responsibility to recreate by words and actions that minimum of mutual trust which is necessary in the quest for security by means of monitored and balanced reductions in arms.
Jeg vil gerne først spørge ham, om han har nogle kommentarer til den norske statsminister Nordlis henvendelse til Fællesskabet.
And if, as well as looking to the past, we look to the present and the future, the need for these joint initia tives becomes even more clear.
De enkelte stater har taget en række initiativer, men disse svarer imidlertid ikke altid til Europas interesser og fremtidsudsigter.
Our view of the Turkish situation is that the time is now ripe for the EEC to suspend the association agreement until such time as lawful democracy is restored in the country.
