B3-1873/91 af Sakellariou og Dury for Den Socialistiske Gruppe om situationen i Madagaskar.
B3-1873/91 by Mr Sakellariou and Mrs Dury, on behalf of the Socialist Group, on the situation in Madagascar.
Mendes Bota (LDR). — (PT) Hr. formand, Madagaskar er endnu et land, der forsøger at gå demokratiets vej.
MENDES BOTA (LDR). — (PT) Mr President, Madagascar is yet another country that is attempting to take the path of democracy.
Her findes der både reglen og undtagelsen.
Its struggle has both familiar and unfamiliar elements.
Reglen er en voldelig regering, der undertrykker befolkningen; undtagelsen er oppositionen, der faktisk har valgt en ikke-voldelig modstand mod denne diktatoriske regering.
The familiar element is a brutal regime that violently represses the people ; the unfamiliar element is an opposition movement that has chosen non-violence as the means to fight this dictatorial regime.
Marin, næstformand i Kommissionen. — (ES) Hr. formand, som de ærede medlemmer ved, følger Kommissionen med den største opmærksomhed situationens udvikling i Zaire, navnlig med hensyn til demokratiseringsprocessen.
MARIN, Vice-President of the Commission. — (ES) Mr President, as the House is aware, the Commission is following the development of the situation in Zaire, and particularly the progress of the democratization process, as closely as possible.
Inden for rammerne af Det Politiske Samarbejde har EF over for præsident Mobutu utvetydigt gjort det klart, at vi støtter en demokratisk løsning baseret på en samlingsregering, og De skal vide, at medlemslandenes og Kom missionens repræsentanter efter afsættelsen af hr. Tchisekedis regering sammen rettede henvendelse til præsident Mobutu og erklærede, at indsættelsen af en regering, der ikke har oppositionens støtte, ville få alvorlige konsekvenser på det diplomatiske, politiske, og økonomiske plan — såvel bilateralt som i forhold til EF.
Within the framework of political cooperation, the Community has made clear to President Mobutu, in the strongest terms, its desire to see a democratic solution to the present crisis, based on the formation of a consensus government. Members should also know that, after the dismissal of the Tshisekedi government, a joint representation from the Member States and the Commission warned President Mobutu that the installation of a government in which the opposition was not represented would have grave diplomatic, political and economic consequences, both in terms of Zaire's bilateral relations with the Member States and its relations with the Community.
Hvad EF angår, kan jeg nu med sikkerhed sige, at Kommissionen har suspenderet alle former for pro jekter og programmer finansieret af EF, og vort samarbejde vil naturligvis kun blive genoptaget, hvis den politiske og administrative situation afklares
As regards the Community's present relations with Zaire, I can assure the House that the Commission has suspended all projects and programmes financed by the Community and that cooperation will only be resumed to the extent that the political and administrative
Hovedpersonen i »reglen« er en diktator — Ratsiraka — der med demokratisk tvivlsom legitimitet er ansvarlig for massakrerne den 10. august og den 23. oktober, og som hårdnakket nægter at afholde en folkeafstemning. »Undtagelsen« er repræsenteret ved de madagaskiske bærende kræfter under ledelsen af Albert Zafy, der som tidligere nævnt har valgt ikke-voldelig modstand og har støtte fra landets
The country is ruled by a dictator — albeit a dictator with some dubious democratic legitimacy — President Ratsiraka, who was responsible for the massacres of 10 August and 23 October and who refuses point blank to allow the Malagasy people to express their will in free general elections. The opposition movement — the Comité des Forces Vives, led by Albert Safi — has, as I said before, opted for nonviolent resistance to the regime and is supported in its struggle by the country's religious organizations.
Mendes Bota religiøse sammenslutninger, der bakker denne kamp op.
MENDES BOTA undemocratic regime to hold on to power.
Den økonomiske og sociale opløsning er total.
The economic and social structures in Madagascar have broken down completely.
Det drejer sig om en virkelig katastrofe, strejker er en almindelig foreteelse, embedsmænd begår civile ulydighedsaktioner, som for eksempel at tilbageholde deres løn. Produktions- og forsyningssystemer er et kaos.
The country is in a disastrous situation : there are widespread strikes and even government employees have joined the civil disobedience campaign ; salaries are not being paid and there is chaos in the production and supply sectors.
Verhagen (PPE). — (NL) Hr. formand, efter mange år med politisk diktatur og økonomisk forfald har der nu rejst sig en fredelig masseopstand i Madagaskar.
VERHAGEN (PPE). — (NL) Mr President, after many years of political dictatorship and economic decline, the people of Madagascar have risen up peacefully en masse.
Månedslange strejker og manifestationer med deltagelse af mange hundredtusinde mennnesker, en meget bred oppositionsbevægelse, de såkaldte forces vives, som vi havde lejlighed til at møde under sidste mødeperiode i Parlamentet.
For months there have been strikes, demonstrations by hundreds of thousands of people and more, and a very broad opposition movement of 'Forces Vives', whom we were able to meet here at Parliament's last part-session.
Den politiske situation er også meget forværret.
The political situation is also extremely chaotic.
I praksis er der to regeringer, som ikke har udøvende magt: der er en overgangsregering i opposition, og der er et nyt kabinet, der faktisk ikke kan regere landet; det samme skete med den forrige regering, der kun varede i fire måneder.
There are, in practice, two governments, neither of which has executive power: there is a transition government in opposition and there is a new cabinet which is unable to actually govern the country — as was the previous government, which lasted only four months.
Der er ingen international anerkendelse, der er en total mangel på fundamentale rettigheder og på respekt for menneske rettighederne.
Inter national recognition has been withheld and there is a total absence of fundamental civil liberties and respect for human rights.
Frankrigs holdning er beklagelig; landet er fraveget den oprindelige holdning med støtte til Komitéen for de Bærende Kræfter.
Regrettably, France has backtracked on its initial policy of support for the government of the Malagasy Forces Vives.
Og vi må også afsløre visse europæiske landes støtte til Madagaskar, både økonomisk og med hensyn til oprustning. ning.
We must condemn the fact that certain European countries are providing economic support to Madagascar and supplying it with arms.
På grundlag af denne mission og vore samtaler og de informationer, som vi har fået, må vi konkludere, at det er på tide, at Madagaskars nuværende præsident går af.
On the basis of this delegation's visit and the talks it held, and also from information that we are receiving, we conclude that it is time for the current president of Madagascar to step down.
Vi har for kort tid siden optaget kontakt med andre medlemmer af Den Indiske Oceankommission i regionen.
A short while ago, we had contacts with other members of the Indian Ocean Commission from the region.
På grundlag heraf mener jeg nu, at Europa bør tage sine egne regionale initiativer.
Following these, I feel that it would now be a good thing to make it clear that Europe would welcome their own regional initiatives.
Beslutnings forslaget er et skridt i denne retning.
The motion for a resolution rightly does this.
Man beder om afholdelse af en folkeafstemning inden årets udgang, da regntiden er i januar.
There are calls for a referendum — which must be held before the end of the year because the rainy season begins in January.
Europa-Parlamentet har moralsk pligt til at støtte de kræfter, der kæmper for demokratiet, og vi beder Kommissionen og Rådet om at lægge fornyet pres på Madagaskars regering.
The European Parliament has a moral duty to support the forces that are struggling to establish democracy, and we call on the Commission and the Council to step up the pressure on the Government of Madagascar.
Navnlig beder vi Kom missionen om omgående at indstille programmet for støtte til udvikling af landbruget i Madagaskar til en værdi af 9,5 mio ECU.
Above all, we call on the Commission to suspend immediately the programme of aid for rural development in Madagascar, which has a value of ECU 9.5 million.
Waechter (V). — (FR) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, det er et helt folk, der venter støtte fra Dem i dets ikke-voldelige, men beslutsomme mobilisering for demokratiet.
WAECHTER (V). — (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in its nonviolent but determined struggle for democracy, an entire people is counting on our solidarity.
Det er en kamp, som Europa-Parlamentet har moralsk pligt til at støtte.
This is a struggle which the European Parliament has a moral obligation to support and encourage.
I øvrigt skal vi i eftermiddag genoptage debatten om samarbejdspolitik gene relt, set ud fra demokratiske tilstande i de lande, som vi yder bistand til.
This afternoon we will have the opportunity to deal with this issue in broader terms in the debate on human rights and democracy as an aspect of Community develop ment policy.
De demonstrationer, som Komitéen for De Bærende Kræfter i Madagaskar i syv måneder har afholdt praktisk talt hver eneste dag, samler i hundredvis af mennesker.
Demonstrations organized by the Comité des Forces Vives, which have taken place virtually every day for the past seven months, are attended by hundreds of thousands of people.
De offentligt ansatte strejker og alle steder viser lydighedsnægtelse Madagaskars befolknings stærke opslutning om kravet om demokratisering, et krav der legitimeres af de helt uvoldelige metoder.
Government employees are on strike and a widespread campaign of civil disobedience testifies to the overwhelming support of the Malagasy people for the demands for democratization. The legitimacy of these demands is enhanced by the non violent means with which they are pursued.
Guillaume (RDE). — (FR) Da Madagaskar blev uafhængigt, var det et land, der udviklingsmæssigt havde alle muligheder for at ligge i spidsen blandt udviklingslandene.
GUILLAUME (RDE). — (FR) At the time when Madagascar gained its independence it had a level of development that gave it every chance of joining the front ranks of the developing countries.
Den store øs befolkning, hvis tæthed og tilvækst ikke var for stor i forhold til øens naturlige rigdomme, kunne vente hurtige økonomiske og sociale fremskridt.
The density and growth rate of the population of this large island did not exceed the potential of its natural resources, and rapid economic and social progress was confidently expected.
Madagaskar var ver dens største producent af vanilje og eksporterede også fin ris og kvalitetskød.
It was the world's biggest producer of vanilla and exported high-quality rice and meat.
Denne vind blæser nu over en stor del af Afrika.
Today this wind is blowing across a large part of Africa.
Den varsler demokrati i en verdensdel, der fortsat domineres af stammediktaturer og feudalisme.
It heralds democracy in a continent still dominated by tribal dictatorships and feudalism.
Som bekendt bliver der ikke tale om udvikling, før de regimer, der har tilranet sig magten, forsvinder, disse regimer, der hyppigt hviler på korrupte forvaltninger og til egen fordel tilegner sig dele af landets ressourcer eller endog noget af den finansielle hjælp, hvormed vi bidrager.
Development in Africa will not be possible until such regimes have disappeared : regimes that seize power, rely on corrupt administrations and use the wealth of their countries — and even the financial aid that we send them — to line their own pockets.
Men uheldigvis udbredte den doktrinære socialisme, som på daværende tidspunkt omfattede praktisk talt to tredjedele af kloden, sig i 1975 til Madagaskar under dække af et politisk regime, der hurtigt blev til et diktatur.
Sadly, the doctrinaire socialism which at that time spread across practically two-thirds of the planet reached Madagascar in 1975, in the form of a political regime which rapidly turned into a dictatorship.
Det efterfølgende økonomiske sammen brud ledsagedes af alvorlig mangel ikke mindst på fødevarer især i de større byer, så forældre efterlod børn på gaderne, hvor de led en frygtelig død.
The ensuing economic collapse was accompanied by serious shortages — particularly food shortages — especially in the large towns where children were abandoned in the streets by their parents and left to die in misery.
Protester og strejker undertryktes brutalt, selv om Komitéen for de Bærende Kræfter i Madagaskar og
All demonstrations and strikes are now brutally repressed, although the opposition movement — the Malagasy Forces Vives, led by Professor Safi — has opted for non violent resistance.
Demokratiet er ikke blot et stærkt etisk krav, men også en betingelse for folkenes materielle velfærd.
Democracy must be established not only for ideological reasons, but also because the material welfare of the people of Africa depends on it.
Men nu går det ikke længere. Regeringens døvhed over for håbløshedens skrig i gaderne, regeringen, der holder sig skjult i en fæstning af skræk for den befolkning, den skulle tjene, og ikke mindst massakrerne den 10. august og 23. oktober i år lader ingen tvivl bestå om dette regimes art. Men til trods for dette opretholder Frankrig, der i dette århundrede mere end noget andet land har været inddraget i Madagaskars historie, sin politiske og moralske støtte ved sin af flere kolleger allerede stemplede uklare holdning til det nuværende vilkårlige styre.
Nevertheless, France, whose involvement in Madagascar during this century has been greater than that of any other country, continues to lend both moral and political support to this despotic regime by persisting in its ambiguous attitude towards it — an attitude that has already been condemned by a number of Members.
Marin, næstformand i Kommissionen. — (ES) Hr. formand, Kommissionen er meget opmærksom på den politiske udvikling i Madagaskar.
MARÍN, Vice-President of the Commission. — (ES) Mr President, the Commission is following the develop ment of the political situation in Madagascar as closely as possible.
Vor udsending har gentagne gange taget initiativ til at kontakte medlemsstaterne inden for rammerne af Det Politiske Samarbejde, og der foretages løbende analyser af de hastemeddelelser og henstillinger, som medlemsstaterne indsender med henblik på at opnå det, som hidtil har været meget vanskeligt på Madagaskar, nemlig at nå frem til en generel konsensus om en løsning af krisen under overholdelse af men neskerettighederne og de demokratiske spilleregler.
In an effort to achieve what has so far not been possible in Madagascar — that is, general consensus on a solution to the crisis, based on respect for human rights and the democratic process — our delegate has contacted the Member States several times, within the framework of political cooperation, and the urgent communications sent to us by the various Member States are regularly considered.
Jeg kan ikke acceptere, at mit land af politiske hensyn bidrager til opretholdelse af befolkningsfjendtlige regimer.
I cannot accept that, for reasons of State, my country should help regimes that are hated by the people to stay in power.
Hele Fællesskabet bør gøre al økonomisk hjælp og alt militært samarbejde betinget af demokratiseringsprocessens gennemførelse og af menneskerettighedernes overholdelse.
And the European Community as a whole should make all economic aid and military cooperation conditional upon the establishment of democratic procedures and respect for the Charter of Human Rights.
I det konkrete tilfælde er Madagaskars eneste legitime vej ud af den nuværende krise, den udvej vi bør støtte, afholdelse af frie valg.
In the specific case of Madagascar, the only acceptable way to resolve the present crisis is through the holding of free general elections.
Den foreslåede vej til opnåelse af dette resultat er afholdelse af en folkeafstemning, hvortil udgifterne delvis kunne dækkes af Fællesskabet, og den korrekte afvikling deraf kontrolleres af internationale observatører.
These would be preceded by a referendum — the organization of which would be partly financed by the Community and to which international observers would be sent to supervise the referendum process.
Det er den mest effektive umiddelbare investering, som vi kan foretage til fordel for Madagaskars udvikling og dets befolknings fremtid.
This is the most effective shortterm investment that the Community can make to guarantee development in Madagascar and ensure the future of its people.
Jeg anmoder Dem derfor, kære kolleger, om at stemme for denne beslutning.
I therefore call on you, ladies and gentlemen, to give this resolution your support.
Med hensyn til udviklingshjælpen har udenrigsministrene i Det Politiske Samarbejde ladet overbringe et budskab på rette sted, om at denne efter i praksis at være indstillet ikke kan genoptages endsige udvides som en støtte til demokratiseringen, hvis det madagaskiske folk ikke selv løser sit problem.
As regards development aid, the message conveyed by political cooperation on the ground is : now that aid has been effectively suspended, it will not be possible to resume it, let alone increase it as a measure of support for the democratization process, until the crisis in the country has been resolved by the Malagasy people themselves.
Kommissionens udsending har på mine instrukser ved enhver given lejlighed og navnlig over for premierministeren og udenrigsministeren i den siddende regering og over for Kirkernes Økumeniske Råd og hr. Zafy understreget EF's moralske principper med hensyn til de tre uadskillelige begreber: samarbejde-menneskerettigheder-demokratisering.
Following my instructions, our delegate has, at every available opportunity, and especially in his meetings with the Prime Minister of the legal govern ment, the Foreign Minister, the Christian Council of Churches and Professor Safi, stressed the Community's commitment to making cooperation conditional upon respect for human rights and democracy.
For at give Dem alle oplysninger vil jeg nævne, at Kommissionen har besluttet at tage imod hr. Zafy i Lomé-konventio-nens ånd og i et ønske om dialog og information.
The House should know that, in the spirit of the Lomé Convention and in a desire to be kept fully informed, the Commission has decided to invite Professor Safi to come to Brussels for discussions.
Ligeledes i overensstemmelse med ånden i artikel 5 har vi undersøgt muligheden for støtte til demokratiseringen samt betingelserne for al give en sådan støtte.
In accordance with paragraph 5, the possibility of providing support for the democratization process has been discussed, along with the conditions that must be placed upon any such support.
Det økonomiske samarbejde med Madagaskar har været indstillet siden generalstrejken begyndte, og de projekter, der er planlagt i EUF's komitéer, opretholdes, men naturligvis har vi været nødt til at udsætte undertegnelsen af finansieringsaftalerne, sålænge den politiske og administrative situation ikke er afklaret.
Economic cooperation with Madagascar has been suspended since the beginning of the general strike. The programmes run by the committees of the European Development Fund are continuing, but we have, of course, been obliged to postpone the signing of agreements on financial assistance until the political and administrative situation improves.
Jeg må udtrykkeligt og på det kraftigste understrege navnlig over for alle de implicerede parter, at hvis situationen forværres, og der ikke hurtigt organiseres frie og demokratiske valg, er det klart, at samar bejdet med EF ikke vil blive genoptaget; det vil sige, at alle forsøg på at give os indtryk af, at situationen i Madagaskar er ved at blive normaliseret, er nyt tesløse.
I shall formally make it absolutely clear to all parties concerned that, if the situation worsens and free and democratic elections are not organized in the near future, cooperation with the Community obviously cannot be resumed. It is useless to try and persuade us that the situation in Madagascar is getting back to normal.
Den eneste løsning er en national konsensus med henblik på — gentager jeg — at afholde frie og demokratiske valg.
Only national consensus on the need to hold — and I insist — free and democratic elections can provide a solution to the crisis.
Sålænge dette ikke sker, er EF af den opfattelse, at situationen i Madagaskar ikke er normal.
Until such a time, it is the Community's understanding that the situation in Madagascar is far from normal.
En overgang til demokrati forudsætter — som flere medlemmer alle rede har sagt — afholdelse af en national konference, udarbejdelse af et udkast til forfatning, afholdelse af en folkeafstemning samt udskrivelse af frie valg i Madagaskar.
The European Parliament must demonstrate its solidarity with the Malagasy people by calling on the Council and the governments of the Member States to actively intervene to ensure a transition to democracy in Madagascar — a transition to democracy which, as various Members have said, will involve the organization of a national conference, the establishment of a draft constitution and the holding of a referendum followed by free general elections.
Hvordan kan vi opnå det?
How can this be achieved ?
Ved at lægge pres på magthaverne ad diplomatisk vej, afvise militært samarbejde og indstille den økonomiske bistand, der er fastsat i den fjerde Lomékonvention.
Through diplomatic pressure : halting all military cooperation and suspending the economic aid provided for in the fourth Lomé Convention.
Jeg tror, at kommissær Marin er meget lydhør over for Parlamentets forslag og indstillet på i Kommissionen at tage initiativer, der går i denne retning.
I trust that the Commissioner, Mr Marin, is willing to listen to Parliament's proposals and convey them to the Commission.
