Jeg har forsøgt at overholde den, og det vil jeg også fremover bestræbe mig på at gøre.
Thirdly, freedom of opinion and expression cannot be stifled, even by parliamentary rules of procedure.
Så, hr. formand, først spurgte jeg ambassadøren om fatwaen.
So, Mr President. I first of all tackled the ambassador about the fatwa.
Hårdt presset lod han mig forstå, at den iranske regering ikke selv ville sende en dødspatrulje ud for at få ram på Salman Rushdie og andre; men modstræbende indrømmede han, at man ikke ville gøre noget for at standse individuelle iranere, der ville forsøge at myrde de ofre, de havde udpeget.
Under pressure he gave me to believe that the Iranian Government would not itself send out a death squad to get Salman Rushdie and others; but grudgingly he did agree that individual Iranians would not be stopped from trying to assassinate their declared victims.
Dernæst forekom den iranske chargé d'affaires i London helt villig til at indrømme, at hundreder af iranere var blevet henrettet i Evin-fængslet i Teheran — en ganske overraskende indrømmelse, troede jeg.
Then, in London, the Iranian chargé d'affaires seemed quite ready to admit that hundreds of Iranians had been executed at Evin Prison in Teheran — quite an astonishing admission, I thought.
Men naturligvis er det et meget omstridt spørgsmål, fordi Iran på den ene side er et land med et stort potentiale, men hvor vi på den anden side har et tyrannisk og undertrykkende regime, som det er næsten umuligt at have noget at gøre med.
But of course this is a very vexed question because, on the one hand, Iran is a nation of great potential but, on the other, we have a tyrannical and oppressive regime with which it is almost impossible to do business.
Fouque (ARE). — (FR) Fru formand, vort Parlament kender godt den burmesiske kvinde Aung San Suu Kyi.
So, I would ask the Commission in the terms of this resolution, first of all, to report to Parliament either today or at a future
Vi tildelte hende i 1990 Sakharov-prisen.
Debates of the European Parliament
Ifølge FN's repræsentant, der har anmodet om hendes umiddelbare frigivelse, henretter soldater ofte landsbybeboere uden dom fældelse, de voldtager, torterer og plyndrer.
Moorhouse date on the human rights situation in Iran, providing an up-to-date picture; and secondly, to inform us whether any Member States are proposing to take any action themselves to bring more pressure to bear on the Iranian authorities.
Aung San Suu Kyi giver ikke efter, forhandler ikke og forråder ikke.
capital of her country, as the prisoner of one of the worst dictatorships on earth.
Hun er levende, hun kæmper og hun appellerer til os.
The military junta, the SLORC, takes every opportunity to malign her, claiming in one breath that her seditious speeches are inciting the people to acts of violence and in the next that she intends to enter into secret negotiations with the junta to arrange her release and some sort of agreement.
På mandag, den 19. juni 1995, bliver hun 50 år.
The truth is very different.
Den vil hun fejre helt alene, isoleret fra omverdenen, sin familie og alle dem, der som vi deler hendes idealer. Skæbnens ironi vil, at FN samme dag fejrer sin 50. fødselsdag.
According to the United Nations spokesman who is demanding her immediate release, troops in that country frequently execute villagers without trial and commit acts of rape, torture and looting.
Caccavale (FE). — (IT) Hr. formand, de seneste volds- og terrorhandlinger, der er indtruffet uden for Irans grænser, har for os europæere været lidt som at vågne op fra en drøm, fra en illusion. Illusionen bestod i at kunne opretholde moderate forbindelser med det iranske regime, et totalitært, diktatorisk regime, som bygger på tortur, vold og intolerance.
Caccavale (FE). — (IT) Mr President, the latest episodes of violence and terrorism occurring outside Iran were for us Europeans rather an awakening from a dream, from an illusion.
Man troede, at Rafsanjani og hans fæller kunne åbne nye veje for en dialog med Vesten.
It was thought that Rafsanjani and his acolytes could open new paths of dialogue with the West.
Men dette er ikke sket; det har kun været en from illusion hos os vesterlændinge, eller snarere hos visse regeringer, som muligvis har brugt denne illusion, denne drøm til at indgå handelsaftaler med det iranske regime.
That has not happened; it was only a vain illusion of us westerners, or rather of some governments, which have perhaps used that illusion, that dream, in order to be able to conclude commercial agreements with the Iranian regime.
1995 er endelig året for afholdelse af den 4. internationale kvindekonference.
She is alive, she is fighting and she is calling upon us. Next Monday, 19 June 1995, will be her fiftieth birthday.
Hvor længe kan denne modige kvinde og hendes folk overleve at have mundkurv på og blive gjort til martyrer?
She will spend it entirely alone, cut off from the world, from her family and from all those who, like us, share her ideals.
Hvornår beslutter vi resolut og reelt at hjælpe dem med at bringe vore fælles idealer til sejr?
And, by an irony of history, another fiftieth birthday will be celebrated that same day: that of the United Nations.
Jeg tror, at hykleriets tid nu er forbi.
I think that by now the time for hypocrisy is past.
Vi bør gøre os klart, at der ikke er mulighed for kompromis med dem, der gør brug af tortur, diktatur, intolerante metoder og vold som politisk udtryksmiddel.
We must recognize that there is no possibility of mediation with those who use torture, dictatorship, methods of intolerance and violence as the actual expression of politics.
Så sent som i denne uge har det igen arresteret en af de tidligere ledere af oppositionen i landet.
When are we going to make up our minds to help them, resolutely and effectively, to bring about the triumph of our common ideals?
Europæerne bør nu foretage et valg, finde samtalepartnere uden for det iranske regime, herunder dem, der søger at genindføre demokratiet i et land, der i stadig højere grad bliver et centralt led i den internationale terrorisme.
At this point Europeans must make a choice, must find partners outside the Iranian system, amongst those who seek to bring democracy to a country which is becoming ever more a by-word for international terrorism.
Jeg ser det møde efter ministermødet i EU/ASEAN, der er planlagt til slutningen af august i Brunei, som en mulighed for Den Europæiske Union til at sige, at den ønsker at forbyde handelsdelegationer at rejse til Burma, at den agter at nedkøle sin diplomatiske forbindelser med landet, og at isolere SLORC og nægte at betragte det som legitimt.
Kinnock, Glenys (PSE). — Madam President, Aung San Suu Kyi's detention is, of course, part of an ongoing and persistent pattern of human rights violations committed by the SLORC in Burma since it illegally took over the government in 1988.
De to ord »constructive engagement« er ikke en mulighed, når det gælder dette styre i Burma.
Only this week it rearrested one of the former leaders of the opposition in that country.
Telkämper (V). — (DE) Fru formand, Norge kaldte i februar 1995 sin ambassadør hjem fra Teheran.
Telkämper (V). — (DE) Madam President, in February 1995, Norway withdrew its ambassador to Iran.
Den amerikanske regering har dekreteret handelsembargo og en FN-resolution anklager Iran for statsterrorisme.
The United States Government has declared economic sanctions against that country, and a UN resolution accuses the Iranian authorities of state terrorism.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
The European Parliament has adopted a number of very clear resolutions in connection with the Salman Rushdie case.
Israel, der var forløber for selve fredsprocessen.
Torture is commonplace, and a system of sexual apartheid is in operation.
En moderat islamisk kronikør ved den halvofficielle avis Al Ahram ser tingene som følger: hvis der er et problem, er det ikke mellem regeringen og muslimerne, men mellem regeringen og demokratiet. kratiet.
By adopting this joint motion for a resolution today, therefore, we must call unequivocally for all political prisoners to be released and for the use of the death penalty to be brought to an end.
Caccavale (FE). — (IT) Fru formand, Aung San Suu Kyi er endnu en gang i centrum af vore forhandlinger. En modig kvinde, en kvinde, der har været tilbageholdt i seks år.
Caccavale (FE). — f/7") Madam President, we find ourselves speaking again of Aung San Suu Kyi, a courageous woman who has been detained for six years.
Den 20. juli dette år er nemlig seksårsdagen for hendes tilbageholdelse, hvilket alene skyldes det forhold, at hun havde mod til at vende tilbage til sit eget land og at stille sig i spidsen for en bevægelse, der ønsker at genoprette demokratiet.
On 20 July next the sixth year of detention expires, owing solely and exclusively to the fact that she had the courage to return to her own country, putting herself at the head of a movement aiming to restore democracy.
Også i dette tilfælde står vi over for et regime, der anvender tortur, slaveri, udvisning og politisk undertrykkelse. Dette er det burmesiske regimes metoder.
This time too we find ourselves faced with a regime which uses torture, slavery, exile and political repression.
Man siger nu, at Aung San Suu Kyi står for at blive løsladt, men man er samtidig i færd med at udarbejde en forfatning, ifølge hvilken man ikke kan opnå en offentlig post, hvis man er gift med en udlænding, eller hvis man har befundet sig uden for Burma i tyve år.
Now they are telling us that Aung San Suu Kyi should be freed, but they are preparing a constitution in which it is provided that those married to a foreigner or who have been absent from Burma for 20 years cannot hold public office.
Endnu en gang bliver burmesiske borgere praktisk taget frataget deres mulighed for frit at bestemme over deres egen fremtid.
Once again in practice Burmese citizens are being forbidden the opportunity to choose their own future freely.
Dette er et spørgsmål, Europa bør tage sig af, og hvor det bør indtage en særdeles klar holdning.
And that is a question which Europe should take up and on which a very clear position should be adopted.
Telkämper (V). — (DE) Fru formand, vi har ved flere lejligheder fordømt, at fru Aung San Suu Kyi, som er leder af Oppositionen i Burma og med overvældende flertal vandt valget i 1991, fortsat sidder i husarrest.
Telkämper (V). — (DE) Madam President, we have repeatedly condemned the fact that Mrs Aung San Suu Kyi, the leader of the Burmese opposition which won the 1990 elections with an overwhelming majority, is still detained. Mrs Suu Kyi, a
Hun modtog Nobels fredspris og Sakharov-prisen i 1991 og har siddet i husarrest siden juli 1989.
winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and the 1991 Sakharov Prize, has been under house arrest since July 1989.
Lad os i dag give udtryk for vor anerkendelse af denne ædle, modige og store mand; lad vor stemme — Europas stemme — blive hørt højt og tydeligt af guvernøren i Pennsylvania, så der straks kan blive gennemført en udsættelse af henrettelsen.
Let us today pay tribute to this generous, courageous, great man; let our voice — the voice of Europe — be heard loud and clear by the Governor of Pennsylvania with a view to having a stay of execution ordered promptly.
I henhold til den nugældende lov, der er fastsat af State Law and Order Restoration Council, er tilbageholdelse uden retssag begrænset til fem år og hun skulle løslades nu.
Under the laws in force at the time of her arrest, which were passed by the State Law and Order Restoration Council and limit detention without trial to five years, Aung San Suu Kyi should have been released by now.
Hun burde have været på fri fod siden juli 1994, men nu er lovene blevet ændret med tilbagevirkende kraft.
She should have been free since July 1994; but now the laws have been retroactively modified.
Moorhouse (PPE). — (EN) Fru formand, jeg vil indlede den korte debat om Syrien.
Moorhouse (PPE). — Madam President, I am going to introduce the short debate on Syria.
Jeg mener ikke, vi kan acceptere sligt.
In my view, we cannot accept this.
Ifølge en rapport fra FN's særlige udsending anvendes der fortsat tortur, slaveri og politisk undertrykkelse i Burma.
According to the report of the UN Special Rapporteur, torture, slavery and political repression are continuing in Burma.
Hvis vi fortsat vi have forbindelse med Burma, bliver vi nødt til at kræve løsladelse uden forbehold.
If we are to maintain contact with the regime in that country, we must demand the unconditional release of Aung San Suu Kyi.
Endvidere er det, fru Kinnock sagde, vigtigt: Denne kvinde er blevet valgt retmæssigt, hun burde være leder af regeringen.
What Mrs Kinnock just said is also important: Mrs Suu Kyi was legally elected, and she must take her place as head of government.
Derudover skal FN undersøge, om der gennem føres projekter ved hjælp af tvangsarbejde, således som det er blevet os fortalt.
Furthermore, the European Union must investigate the recent reports of the use of forced labour on certain projects in Burma.
Fortsætter det på den måde, bør vi iværksætte omfattende økonomiske sanktioner over for Burma.
If these reports are true, then we must impose comprehensive economic sanctions on that country.
Som Kommissionen vist udmærket ved, har krænkelser af menneskerettighederne i Syrien været en kilde til stor bekymring her i Parlamentet, i det mindste siden 1990.
As the Commission will well know, human rights violations in Syria have been a source of great concern here in the European Parliament, since 1990 at the very least.
Nogle af os var opmærksomme på den alvorlige situation længe før da, idet vi havde været involveret i bestræbelser på at sikre frigivelse af særdeles mange samvittighedsfanger. Det var til dels som resultat heraf, at vi nægtede at godkende såvel den tredje som den fjerde finansprotokol i forbindelse med samarbejdsaftalen mellem EU og Syrien.
Some of us were aware of the serious situation well before then, having been involved in efforts to secure the release of a great many prisoners of conscience.
Faktisk fastholdt vi vor holdning i ca. to år og hævede endelig embargoen, efter at et stort antal syrere var blevet frigivet op til december 1993.
Indeed, we maintained our position for some two years, finally lifting the embargo following the release of large numbers of Syrians up to December 1993.
Det var også omkring det tidspunkt, at syriske jøder fik lov til meget mere frit at rejse ind og ud af Syrien.
Also, around that time, Syrian Jews were allowed to move in and out of Syria much more freely.
André-Léonard (ELDR). — (FR) Fru formand, i et demokratisk samfund er det staten, der skal sikre de grundlæggende frihedsrettigheder.
André-Léonard (ELDR). — (FR) Madam President, in a democratic society it is the responsibility of the State to ensure respect for basic liberties.
Europa-Parlamentet er meget foruroliget over vedtagelsen af en ny lov, der i betragtelig grad begrænser den nationale pressefrihed og udenlandske journalisters ret til at bevæge sig frit i Egypten.
The European Parliament is particularly concerned by the adoption of a new law which imposes considerable restrictions on the freedom of the national press and freedom of activity for foreign journalists in Egypt.
Den egyptiske journalistsammenslutning har endog kaldt til generalstrejke den 24. juni for så kraftigt som muligt at protestere mod vedtagelse af denne presselov.
The Federation of Egyptian Journalists has even called a general strike for 24 June as a strenuous protest against the approval of the Press Law.
Den nye lov, der i bedste fald er vag, omfatter fængselsstraffe fra 1 til 5 år for journalister og oppositionspartier, der truer med at boykotte valgene til den lovgivende forsamling til efteråret.
This new law, couched in terms which are vague to say the least, provides for terms of imprisonment ranging from 1 to 5 years for journalists, and the opposition parties are threatening to boycott next Autumn's legislative elections.
Dengang lovede Kommissionen og sandsynligvis også Rådet, at der skulle udarbejdes årsrapporter om fremgangen for menneskerettighedssituationen i Syrien.
If this is so, it is most regrettable since the continuous stream of reports of further human rights violations in Syria has almost become a flood.
Jeg er ikke vidende om — og jeg har været her længe — at nogen sådan rapport er blevet forelagt for Parlamentet.
For example, a number of Syrian doctors, who have been held for long periods in gaol, have still not been released.
Hvis det er tilfældet, så er det højst beklageligt, eftersom den fortsatte strøm af rapporter om yderligere overtrædelser af menneskerettighederne i Syrien næsten er blevet til en flodbølge.
Although the Egyptian government is facing a major crisis, triggered by religious fanatics and terrorists, this must not be used by Mr Mubarak's government as a pretext for gagging the press.
For eksempel er et antal syriske læger, der er blevet tilbageholdt i fængsel i lang tid, endnu ikke blevet løsladt.
Not only that, but the methods used are becoming increasingly excessive, with constant recourse to torture, suspects being taken hostage and arbitrary arrests.
Desuden bliver metoderne stedse mere grove.
United States of America.
Man gør konstant brug af tortur, mistænkte tages som gidsler, og der foretages vilkårlige arrestationer. Dette problemfyldte, usikre miljø åbner døren for fundamentalisterne, hvilket er en alvorlig trussel for Mellemøsten.
Our Parliament is right to remain constant in this matter, which does it credit and means that the case-law — if we may call it that — of our Assembly is confirmed, solid and strong over so many years, against the death penalty both in the European Union and in all countries of the world.
Vi kender alle den vigtige rolle, som Egypten spiller i fredsprocessen og udviklingen af demokrati i Mellemøsten.
We are aware of the important part which Egypt plays in the peace process and the furtherance of democracy in the Middle East.
Vi husker således den første aftale om fred mellem Egypten og
In that context, we need only remember the initial, separate peace agreement between Egypt and Israel which served as a forerunner to the initiation of the peace process.
Dell'Alba (ARE). — (IT) Fru formand, ærede kolleger, for hundrede og syttende gang protesterer Europa-Parlamentet over en dødsdom, som for hundrede og syttende gang er afsagt i en amerikansk stat.
It is a long and hard road, but the Union would be taking a just, correct and important step if it raised its voice just for once in this sphere to ask for a measure which is, I repeat, important: an international moratorium on the death penalty throughout the world.
McKenna (V). — (EN) Fru formand, De Forenede Stater er naturligvis en af de største moralske politistyrker i verden, men alligevel er overtrædelsen af menneskerettighederne i dette land gruopvækkende.
McKenna (V). — Madam President, the United States is, of course, one of the great moral police forces of the world yet the human rights abuses in that country are quite appalling.
For eksempel er de gået tilbage til umenneskelig behandling af fanger ved at lænke dem og tvinge dem til hårdt arbejde.
For example they have gone back to the inhumane treatment of prisoners by chaining them up and forcing them to labour.
Det er en umenneskelig og ydmygende måde at behandle folk på.
This is an inhumane and humiliating way to treat anyone.
Jeg håber, at staten Alabama vil ændre denne afgørelse.
I hope that the State of Alabama will reverse its decision.
Situationen i Burma: Siden State Law and Order Restoration Council, SLORC, kom til magten i Burma eller Myanmar, har Kommissionen ikke blot udsat ethvert samarbejde og med undtagelse af humanitær bistand tillige al støtte, men endvidere både på bilateralt plan og i internationale fora gentagne gange sagt, at de massive krænkelser af menneskerettighederne, som SLORC begår, skal frem i lyset.
With regard to the situation in Burma, since the takeover of power by the State Law and Order Restoration Council — the SLORC — in Burma or Myanmar, the Commission has not only suspended all cooperation and, with the exception of humanitarian assistance, all forms of aid, but has also repeated ly declared in both bilateral contacts and international forums that the gross human rights violations perpetrated by the SLORC must be condemned.
Så sent som den 13. marts 1995 offentliggjorde rådsformandskabet på Den Europæiske Unions vegne en erklæring, hvori det giver udtryk for sin store bekymring over de seneste militæroperationer i det område, der grænser op til Thailand, og over fru Aung San Suu Kyis fortsatte husarrest.
As recently as 13 March 1995, the Council presidency issued a statement on behalf of the European Union in which it expressed its deep concern at the latest military operations on the border with Thailand and the continued detention of Mrs Aung San Suu Kyi.
Vi undersøger for øjeblikket, hvad vi derudover kan gøre for at forbedre fru Aung San Suu Kyis skæbne.
We are currently examining what else we can do to improve the situation of Mrs Suu Kyi.
For det andet, når det drejer sig om dødsstraf, så anerkendes Abu-Jamal vidt og bredt som en vigtig afroamerikansk advokat for grønne idéer.
Secondly, as regards the death penalty. Abu-Jamal is widely recognized as a powerful African-American advocate of green ideas.
Det har ført til, at han er blevet gjort til syndebuk af de amerikanske myndigheder.
This has lead to his victimization by the American authorities.
Han har været fængslet i 14 år, og nu har guvernøren i Pennsylvania underskrevet en ordre om statsligt mord på denne mand.
He has been in prison for 14 years and now the Governor of Pennsylvania has signed an order for the state murder of this man.
Det er blevet sagt igen og igen her i Parlamentet, at dødsstraffen er langt værre end umenneskelig behandling af kriminelle, og at den bør forbydes.
It has been said over and over again in this Parliament that the death penalty goes far beyond inhumane treatment of criminals and should be outlawed.
Hertil kommer, at denne mand faktisk er uskyldig.
The other thing is this man is actually innocent.
Der er mange, der mener, at han er uskyldig.
Many people believe he is innocent.
Som tidligere talere har sagt, er det i sidste instans en racistisk holdning i Amerika, der fører til, at et stort flertal af disse mennesker ender i dødscellerne.
As has been said by previous speakers, it is basically a racist attitude in America that has a vast majority of these people on death row.
Amerikanerne må erkende, at deres tænkemåde ligger langt bagud for resten af den civiliserede verden. De er uciviliserede.
The Americans have to realize that their thinking is way behind that of the civilized world.
Hvorfor tale om Kina og andre lande!
Talk about China and other countries!
Amerika har ikke meget at lade dem høre.
America is not very far ahead of them.
De må holde op med det der.
They have to stop this.
Situationen i Egypten: Vi vil gøre alt for at bistå Egypten med at bibeholde den for øvrigt i sammenligning med andre nabolande traditionelt store pressefrihed.
On the situation in Egypt, we shall do all we can to help the Egyptian authorities maintain that country's freedom of the press, which I would point out has traditionally been far greater than that of neighbouring countries.
Pressesammenslutningen i Egypten har fået forelagt et ultimatum, hvori det kræves, at loven tilbagekaldes inden den 23 Juni.
The Federation of Egyptian Journalists has been presented with an ultimatum, in which the withdrawal of the law until 23 June is proposed.
Spørgsmålet står på dagordenen i Rådets gruppe om Mellemøsten.
This issue is on the agenda of the Council's Middle East group.
Da journalister fra alle politiske og religiøse lejre klart har givet udtryk for deres utilfredshed med den nye lov og den nøjagtige baggrund for indførelsen af den endnu ikke er blevet under søgt, kunne det tænkes, at den i beslutningen nævnte opfordring kommer for tidligt.
However, since journalists of all political and religious persuasions have already clearly expressed their dissatisfaction with this new law, and the precise background to its introduction has not yet been examined, the Commission believes that the appeal contained in the motion for a resolution may be premature.
