De har gentagne gange, senest i deres redegørelse af 14. august, opfordret alle parter i den afghanske konflikt til straks at ophøre med kampene og at indlede forhandlinger med henblik på en tilbagevenden til fred, økonomisk og social genopbygning og til etableringen af en permanent, repræsentativ regering.
They have repeatedly urged, most recently in their statement of 14 August, all parties to the Afghan conflict to put an immediate end to their fighting and to enter into negotiations aimed at a return lo peace, economic and social reconstruction and the establish ment of a permanent representative government.
Kan udenrigsministrene i Europæisk Politisk Samarbejde oplyse, hvilke veje de vil gå for at dæmpe de »amerikanske venners« uro, så de undgår eventuelle negative reaktioner af den type, som på europæisk hold har kunnet påvirke resultatet af den danske folkeafstemning?
The Community and its Member States have contributed with humanitarian aid to Afghan refugee programmes in Pakistan; they fully support the efforts of the United Nations to address the urgent need in Afghanistan for internal reconciliation, reconstruction and refugee return and rehabilitation.
Hvilken betydning har eller kan det navnlig have haft, at der i begge tilfælde kan være tale om manglende relevante oplysninger?
Some Member States have contributed to international programmes supporting the return of" refugees to their homes in Afghanistan.
Fællesskabet og dets medlemsstater har bidraget med humanitær hjælp til afghanske flygtningeprogrammer i Pakistan; de støtter fuldt ud FN's bestræbelser for at afhjælpe det påtrængende behov i Afghanistan for intern udsoning, genopbygning og tilbagevenden og integrering af flygtninge.
On the initiative of the presidents of Croatia, Bosnia and Hercegovina and Slovenia, international emergency meetings on assistance to displaced persons and refugees were held in Vienna on 21 May, in Zagreb on 9 June and in Ljubljana on 29 June. The presidency and the Commission represented the Community and several Member States attended.
Visse medlemsstater har bidraget til internationale pro grammer, der støtter tilbagevenden af flygtningene til deres hjem i Afghanistan.
The London Conference on Yugoslavia on 26 and 27 August also paid particular attention to the many pressing humanitarian issues.
Garel Jones, formand for Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde. — (EN) Det emne, det ærede medlem nævner, henhører ikke under Det Europæiske Politi ske Samarbejde.
The Statement of Principles and the Work Programme, both consensus documents of the Conference, are clear on the need to promote humanitarian relief in all its aspects including refugees.
Banotti (PPE). — (EN) Må jeg lige bruge et øjeblik før mit tillægsspørgsmål til at udtrykke min medfølelse med ministeren, for han og jeg er de eneste her i salen, der har været til stede de sidste otte timer.
BANOTTI (PPE). — May I just take a brief moment before my supplementary to offer my condolences to the Minister because he, Mr Jones Parry and myself' are the only people in the House who have been here for the last eight hours.
Han må snart være meget træt.
He must be getting very tired.
Robles Piquer (PPE). — (ES) Hr. rådsformand, De vil sikkert kunne forstå min forbavselse over en sådan udtalelse, eftersom det er min opfattelse, at alt, som vedrører forsvaret og især europæisk sikker hed, bør ligge Rådet på sinde, især Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde.
CUSHNAHAN (PPE). — First of all I would like to thank the President-in-Office for his detailed reply on basically two issues: one, the question of assistance in humanitarian terms; and secondly, the issue of whether or not Member States are prepared physically to admit refugees into their own particular country.
Jeg takker rådsformanden for hans svar.
I thank the President-in-Office for his answer.
Det er helt fyldestgørende; men vil han være venlig at kommen tere det forhold i forlængelse af den forhandling, vi havde i eftermiddag om Somalia, mens han var til stede, at Afghanistan nu har det højeste antal flygtninge i verden?
It is conclusive, but would he care to comment on the fact that, further to the debate we had this afternoon on Somalia at which he was present, Afghanistan now has the highest number of refugees in the world?
Mere end 6% af befolkningen fra før krigen i Afghanistan er blevet dræbt i de sidste tolv år.
More than 6% of" the pre-war population of Afghanistan have been killed in the last 12 years.
30% af befolkningen fra før krigen i Afghanistan er nu flygtninge enten i Iran eller Pakistan.
30% of the pre-war population of Afghanistan are now refugees either in Iran or Pakistan.
Jeg ved, at rådsformanden har nævnt, at der sendes hjælp til de afghanske flygtninge i Pakistan, men han nævnte ikke dem i Iran.
I know that the President-in-Office mentioned aid being sent to the Afghanistan refugees in Pakistan but he did not mention those in Iran.
Jeg vil være interesseret i at høre, om han også sender noget dertil.
I would be interested if he has anything going there as well.
Jeg vil gerne vide, om de skridt, der er taget i retning af oprettelsen af et supranational! forsvar — og jeg tænker her på den famøse franske-tyske brigade — vil kunne skabe en følelse af usikkerhed, f.eks. hos vore amerikanske allierede, da sikkerheden naturligvis vil kunne blive svækket herved.
GAREL JONES. — The first thing I would say to the honourable Member is that the great majority of EC Member States support the United Nations High Com missioner for Refugees in believing that the best solution is for displaced persons to remain as close as is possible to their homes, preferably within the former Yugoslav republics.
Garel Jones. — (EN) Jeg er det ærede medlem taknemmelig for hendes bemærkninger om min udholdenhed.
GAREL JONES. — I am grateful to the honourable Member for her remarks about my stamina.
Jeg vil bare sige til hende, at som hun og alle de ærede medlemmer er opmærksomme på, er den belastning, vi udsætter os for, naturligvis ikke er noget i sammenligning med de vanskeligheder og de ydmygelser, som flygtninge står overfor i Afghanistan og andre steder.
1 would just say to her that, as she and all honourable Members are aware, the strains that we subject ourselves to are of course as nothing to the difficulties and humiliations that
Vi har her i Parlamentet et Underudvalg om Sikkerhed og Nedrustning, som jeg har den ære at være anden næstformand for, og til Maastricht-Traktaten er der knyttet en protokol, der beskæftiger sig med udviklingen af forbindelser på forsvarsområdet, og særlig med WEU.
GAREL JONES tee on Security and Disarmament of' which I have the honour to be the second vice-chairman and there is attached to the Maastricht Treaty a protocol dealing with the development of defence relationships particularly with the WEU.
Vi når ikke frem til spørgsmål nr. 49, men jeg vil gerne vide, om Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde kan antyde, hvad der vil være den korrekte metode at anvende for medlemmer, der gerne vil stille spørgsmål inden for det område, som dækkes af denne protokol.
We will not get to Question No 49 but I wonder if EPC can indicate the correct method to be followed by Members seeking to table questions in the areas covered by that particular protocol.
Der må da være en metode, hvorpå vi kan forsøge at få en dialog i gang med Rådet, eftersom vi har en struktur til dette formål.
Surely there must be a way in which we can seek to engage in dialogue with the Council since we have a structure for that purpose.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
refugees are facing in Afghanistan and elsewhere.
Nr. 3-421 / 213 familien til et hovedvidne er blevet kidnappet, og en af dem blev voldtaget tre gange.
So far overa million Afghans have returned home and they have been returning from Pakistan at a rate of about 15,000 a day.
Samme vidnes mand blev sammen med et medlem af personalet ved vort juridiske rådgivningskontor udsat for en byge af maskingeværild.
I am not aware of the flow of returnees from other parts of the world but I would suspect that if as many as a million have returned to Afghanistan so far this year, they will not all have come just from Pakistan.
Spørgsmål til Kommissionen
PRESIDENT. — Question No 43, by Mr Robles Piquer (H-0761/92)
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 59 af Blak (H0805/92):
Subject: Avoiding ambiguities with regard to an EC military force
Garel Jones. — (EN) Det ærede medlem er utvivlsomt opmærksom på, at Den Vesteuropæiske Union har ni medlemmer.
GAREL JONES. — The honourable Member will be aware that the Western European Union has nine members.
Det forholder sig derfor sådan — det er næppe undgået det ærede medlems falkeblik — at der er tre medlemmer af Fællesskabet, der ikke er medlemmer af Den Vesteuropæiske Union.
It is therefore the case — it will not have escaped the honourable Member's perceptive eye — that three Members of the European Community are not members of" the Western European Union.
Som jeg allerede har sagt til det andet ærede medlem tidligere, henhører spørgsmålet om europæisk for svar derfor ikke under Den Europæiske Union eller under Kommissionens eller Parlamentets kompetence.
Therefore, as I said to the other honourable Member earlier on, the topic of European defence is not a matter that comes within the European Union or within the competence either of the Commission or of this House.
Naturligvis har en fælles udenrigs- og sikker hedspolitik i et mellemstatsligt spørgsmål implikationer for forsvaret, men hvis det ærede medlem ønsker at forfølge disse meget interessante og vigtige spørgsmål, så er det rette forum at finde i de pågældende medlemsstater.
Oí course common foreign and security policy in an intergovernmental matter has a read-through into defence, but if the honourable Member wishes to pursue these very interesting and important questions the place to pursue them is in the Member States involved.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 44 af Oddy (H0777/92):
PRESIDENT. — Question No 44, by Mrs Oddy (H0777/92)
Er udenrigsministrene i Europæisk Politisk Samarbejde klar over, at Bruce Harris fra Casa Allianza — en ikkestatslig organisation, som modtager EF-støtte til et program for gadebørn — er blevet truet på livet?
Following the setting-up of the Franco-German corps intended to provide the European Union with a military force of its own, repeated statements have been made with a view to allaying the worries of 'our American friends and even some of" our European friends', as the new German Foreign Minister puts it.
Hvilke skridt vil udenrigsministrene tage for at sørge for beskyttelse af Bruce Harris?
Can the Ministers meeting in EPC describe what means are to be used to allay the fears of our 'American friends' so as to avoid the kind of negative reaction on their part which we have already seen at European level in the results of the Danish referendum, and state, in particular, what role a lack of' proper information may have played or could play in both cases?
Christophersen, næstformand i Kommissionen. — Hr. formand, jeg finder hr. Freddy Blaks spørgsmål meget aktuelt.
GAREL JONES, President-in-Office of European Political Cooperation. — The subject to which the honourable Member refers does not fall within EPC competence.
Som De ved, arbejder Kommissionen nu med at forberede forslag til nye strukturfondsforordninger, og et af de principper, som vi finder meget væsentlige, er additionalitetsprincippet.
Are the Foreign Ministers meeting in Political Cooperation aware that Bruce Harris of Casa Allianza, an NGO which receives Community funding for a street children programme, has received death threats?
Vi gør for det første alt, hvad vi kan for at sikre, at medlemsstaterne i denne periode respekterer princip pet.
What steps will the Foreign Ministers take to ensure the protection of Bruce Harris?
Garel Jones, formand for Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde. — (EN) Jeg vil meget gerne besvare det yderst vigtige spørgsmål, som det ærede medlem har stillet.
GAREL JONES, Presidenl-in-Ojfice of European Political Cooperation. — I would be very happy to answer the important question that the honourable Member has raised.
Det ærede medlem er sikkert klar over, at Fællesskabet og dets medlemsstater er meget foruroligede over menneskerettighedssituationen i Guatemala og i særdeleshed over forholdene for gadebørn.
The honourable Member will be aware that the Community and its Member States are very worried about the human rights situation in Guatemala, and in particular the plight of street children.
De er også bekymrede for udenlandske nødhjælpsarbejderes sikkerhed.
They are also concerned about the safety of foreign aid workers.
Hvad angår specielt hr. Harris, er denne sag ikke blevet drøftet i Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde, men Fællesskabet og dets medlemsstater overvåger sikkerhedsforholdene nøje.
The specific case of Mr Harris has not been discussed in European Political Cooperation, but the Community and its Member States monitor security conditions closely.
De har tilkendegivet deres bekymring over for myndighederne i Guatemala og anmodet om, at der træffes passende foranstaltninger for at sikre disse medarbejderes sikkerhed.
They have made their concerns known to the Guatemalan authorities and requested that appropriate measures be taken to ensure the safety of these workers.
Problemet med gadebørn vil blive drøftet ved det næste møde i Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejdes latinamerikanske arbejdsgruppe, som finder sted den 17. september.
The problem of street children will be discussed at the next meeting of the EPC Latin American working group on 17 September.
Jeg kan forsikre det ærede medlem for, at jeg selv personlig vil interessere mig for dette.
I can assure the honourable Member that I will myself" take a personal interest in this.
Jeg har besøgt Casa Allianza, jeg har mødt hr. Harris, og jeg håber at møde ham igen til efteråret, og jeg kan forsikre det ærede medlem om, at formandskabet vil følge denne sag meget nøje.
I have visited the Casa Allianza, I have met Mr Harris and I hope to meet him again this autumn and I can assure the honourable Member that the presidency will follow this matter extremely closely.
Blak (S). — Jeg vil gerne have lov at sige hr. Christophersen tak for det gode svar.
BALFE (S). — I can see the President-in-Office's difficulty.
Så jeg er utrolig glad for Deres svar og siger mange tak herfor.
We have within this Parliament a Subcommit
Oddy (S). — (EN) Jeg har her en fax, som jeg fik for to dage siden fra Casa Allianza, hvori der står, at tre medlemmer af dets personale har måttet flygte til Canada.
ODDY (S). — I have a fax here which I received two days ago from Casa Allianza telling me that three of its staff members had to flee to Canada.
De har modtaget seks bombetrusler.
They have received six bomb threats.

The brother of a counsellor was kidnapped.

Christophersen. — Jeg er ikke i stand til det på dette grundlag at give et definitivt svar.
ODDY witness, along with a staff member from our legal aid office, was almost sprayed with machine gun fire.
Hvis vi taler om 25% additionality, så må vi vide i forhold til hvad.
1 consider this a very serious matter.
Jeg tror ikke, jeg kan komme nærmere et svar.
State. I do not think I can give a more detailed answer.
Jeg vil referere dette til min kollega, hr. Bruce Milian, som er særlig ansvarlig for Regionalfonden, og hvis det ærede medlem ønsker at komme tilbage til sagen, så er jeg sikker på, at hr. Bruce Milian vil give et fyldigt svar.
I will refer it to my colleague, Mr Bruce Millan, who is specially responsible for the Regional Fund, and if the honourable Member likes to come back to the matter I am sure Mr Millan will give a full answer.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 60 af Desmond (H0806/92):
PRESIDENT. — Question No 60, by Mr Desmond (H-0806/92)
Om: Principperne i forbindelse med strukturfondene
Subject: Structural Funds
Agter Kommissionen med henblik på strukturfondene at sikre, at medlemsstaterne i fremtiden til fulde vil respektere subsidiaritets-, samarbejds- og suppleringsprincipperne?
Does the Commission intend to continue its efforts to ensure that programmes of structural assistance are truly 'additional' to planned government expenditure in regions classified as Objective 1, 2 and 5b?
Christophersen, næstformand i Kommissionen. — Det ærede medlem, hr. Desmond, rejser i sit spørgsmål ikke bare additionalitetsprincippet, men også subsidiaritetsprincippet og partnerskabsprincippet.
CHRISTOPHERSEN, Vice-President of the Commission. — (DA) Mr Desmond, raises in his question not only the principle of additionality but also those of subsidiarity and partnership.
Han udbygger altså det spørgsmål, jeg netop har svaret på, og vil gerne vide, hvordan Kommissionen vil sikre, at disse yderligere principper bliver respekteret. ret.
He is therefore widening the question I have just answered and would like to know how the Commission will ensure that these further principles are respected.
Christophersen. — Det er klart, at Kommissionen ønsker, at medlemslandene i videst mulig omfang respekterer partnerskabsprincippet, men det er også klart, at forordningens regler er relativt generelle.
I must point out again here that we are subject to the existing rules, but we should like to strengthen that principle in the regulations on the structural funds to be applied after 1993, and once again I express the hope that Parliament will help us to do so.
Vi så gerne, at de var mere præcise.
I think Mr Blak's question is very topical.
En af grundene til, at de er relativt generelle, er naturligvis, at medlems landene har meget forskellige traditioner, meget forskellige strukturer.
As you know, the Commission is now busy preparing proposals for new regulations on the structural funds, and one of' the principles, which we think very essential, is the principle of'additionality.
Der er medlemslande, hvor de sociale partnere er deltagere i rådgivnings- og beslut ningsprocesser, der er andre medlemslande, hvor de meget sjældent er med. Der er en historisk baggrund for disse forskelle.
Most Members of this Assembly are aware how the Commission has in fact had quite difficult discussions with certain Member States and at times has held grants back to compel Member States to respect the principle.
Men vi ønsker at forstærke det princip, og jeg vil gerne gentage, hvad jeg sagde om den fremtidige lovgivning: Det er Kommissionens hensigt at forstærke princippet, og så må vi appellere til, at Parlamentet hjælper os med at få det vedtaget af Ministerrådet.
But over and above this there is of course our evaluation of total compliance with the principle, to be made at the end of the five-year planning period. I expect that the Commission, in its proposals for new regulations on the structural funds, will strengthen the additionality principle.
Det er klart, at vi i vores midtvejs-review har måttet konstatere, at visse medlemsstater ikke i tilstrækkelig grad efter vor opfattelse har respekteret samarbejdsprincippet.
DESMOND (S). — In the light of the momentous statements made this evening by the British presidency, I am sure the Commissioner would agree with me that his comments in relation to subsidiarity and cooperation have an almost heroic ring about them as put to Parliament this evening.
Igen må jeg her henvise til, at vi jo er underkastet de eksisterende regler, men vi vil gerne forstærke dette princip i strukturfondsforordningerne, der skal gælde efter 1993, og jeg udtrykker igen håbet om, at Parlamentet vil hjælpe os med en forstærkning.
However, in an almost desperate endeavour to see if we can continue our work may I ask the Commissioner if there is any renewed determination within the Commission, particularly in the context of partnership, to insist that Member States will adhere to the broad principle of partnership, particularly in relation to major decisions affecting the structural funds.
Det samme gælder subsidiaritetsprincippet.
If we are speaking of 25% additionality we must know in relation to what.
Det dis kuteres jo i almindelighed mest som et princip.
Is it in relation to what was previously granted or are wc perhaps talking rather of the co-financing percentage?
Kommissionen og Fællesskabet skal respektere; men jeg mener, man med rimelighed kan spørge, om ikke også medlemsstaterne burde respektere subsidiari
I need a little more information about it, because if it is the co-financing percentage that is another problem. But as you know, the Commission has had comprehensive discussions over rather a long time with that Member
Cushnahan (PPE). — (EN) Jeg vil gerne støtte hr. Desmond, og er kommissæren ikke enig i, at en af de vigtigste bestanddele i en reform af strukturfondene var princippet om partnerskab?
CHRISTOPHERSEN. — (DA) Of course the Commission wishes the member countries to respect the principle of partnership to the greatest possible extent, but it is also clear that the rules of' the regulation are fairly general.
Hvad kan vi gøre i et land som Irland, hvor der ikke er nogen regionale myndigheder, og hvor der består betydelig utilfredshed blandt de ikkestatslige organisationer med hensyn til omfanget af deres inddragelse i forbindelse med Den Europæiske Socialfond?
We should be glad if they were more precise. One reason for their being relatively general is, of course, that the member countries have very different traditions and structures.
Er han ikke enig i, at den eneste måde, hvorpå man kan sikre, at der findes et rigtigt partnerskab, er. hvis Kommissionen er parat til at nævne de sektorer, der i fremtiden skal medinddrages af regeringerne i en kommende administration af strukturfondene?
There are member countries in which the social partners take part in consultative and decision-
Her er det jo direkte sagt i Maastricht-Traktaten og i aftalen om en styrkelse af samhørighedspolitikken, at en del af kohæsionsfondens midler udelukkende skal anvendes til miljøformål, og disse miljøformål skal naturligvis være i fuld overensstemmelse med Fællesskabets egen miljøpolitik.
Maastricht Treaty, which states that environmental pro tection requirements must in future be integrated into the definition and implementation of other Community policies.
Så det grundlag, vi hidtil har arbejdet på, det bestræber vi os på bliver respekteret, og med Maastricht-Traktaten vil det blive betydeligt forstærket.
And it is clear that if that article in the Maastricht Treaty becomes a reality the Community will get a new and stronger legal basis for asking that the necessary environmental considerations should be respected.
Det er den politiske realitet.
There is a historical background for these differences.
Men nye strukturfondsforordninger kan i fremtiden kun vedtages, hvis Parlamentet er indforstået her med. Hvis Maastricht vedtages, så bliver der jo også nogle nye muligheder, som ikke eksisterede i 1988, for at forbedre respekten for dette princip.
But we wish to strengthen this principle and I should like to repeat what I said about future legislation: it is the Commission's intention to strengthen the principle and so we must appeal for Parliament to help us to get it accepted by the Council of Ministers.
Formanden. — Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, vil spørsmål nr. 61 blive besvaret skriftligt. ')
The same is true moreover of the operations to be undertaken under the cohesion fund and also the special solidarity fund.
Banotti (PPE). — (EN) Det lyder alt sammen udmærket, men det beroliger mig ikke så meget, som jeg havde håbet.
BANOTTI (PPE). — That all sounds very well but it does not actually reassure me as much as I hoped it might.
Jeg forstår, at der nu bliver indført et nyt dyr i forordningerne vedrørende Delors Ilpakken, som hedder »miljøprofiler«.
I understand that there is a new animal being introduced to the regulations for the Delors II package called 'Environmental profiles'.
