For lidt siden gjorde hr. Poos under forelæggelsen af sit program opmærksom på det, der næsten er en åbenlys sandhed, dvs. at Luxembourg får formandskabet for Unionen på et kritisk tidspunkt for dennes udvikling.
While understanding Turkey's desire to put an end to acts of tenorism, the Presidency of the European Union has emphasized that the Kurdish problem cannot be resolved by military means and can only be resolved politically.
Derfor er jeg Dem meget taknemlig for, at De tog dette op i Deres tale. Vi forventer, at De på skatteharmoniserings-
A number of practical questions were put to me at the end by a speaker who I am not sure if he is still in this Chamber.
har kommenteret, men som medlem af Udvalget om Økonomi, Valutaspørgsmål og Industripolitik vil jeg gerne udtrykke min tilfredshed med hensyn til det luxembourg ske formandskabs hensigter med den skattemæssige har monisering. Her i Parlamentet kritiserer man ofte mit land, når det drejer sig om denne sag.
by the end of this year all human rights abuses in Turkey would be ended. Human rights do not improve however, President, political democracy and the rule of law are mere buzzwords, repeated almost as a mantra by the political elite in Turkey.
Jeg kan således berolige min kollega, hr. Friedrich.
And as the resolution states, more than 1 800 people have died in the latest incursion by Turkey into northern Iraq.
Og så må man gennemgå alle de gode forslag, der allerede er på bordet, betænkningen af Delors, betænkningen af Santer om skabelse af arbejdspladser i nærheden.
Mr President, I must also recall that at the meeting of the Association Council with Turkey held in Luxembourg on 29 April of this year, the European Union reasserted the principle of Turkey's eligibility to accession to the Euro pean Union, as stated by the Association Agreement dating back to 1963.
Der findes arbejdspladser i Europa, som skal mobiliseres, og jeg håber, at det europæiske topmøde vil kunne frem bringe visse konkrete spor i den forbindelse.
This principle also features in the Commission's Opinion which dates back to 1989 and which the Council has adopted.
Altså ingen reklamemæssige dispositioner, men et konkret mål, et topmøde om beskæftigelsen, der er anderledes end alle de andre topmøder, der skal fastlægge nogle mål, der er prioriterede af vores medlemsstater, og som de har sat tal på.
At the same time the European Union has emphasized that pursuit of the strengthening of relations between the European Union and Turkey will rely on a certain number of objective factors, including a solution to the Kurdish question.
Men bare det for Guds skyld ikke går i den forkerte retning og gør de europæiske landmænd og vinavlere til evige bistandsmodtagere. tagere.
The Turkish Foreign Minister yesterday said that were the European Union to open negotiations with Cyprus, then Turkey could not support the attendance of Rauf Denktash in the second round of meetings designed to solve the Cyprus problem. What absolute hypocrisy!
Det andet tema, udfordringen med udvidelsen.
It has therefore launched an appeal for a political - I repeat political - solution to be found.
Den er blevet behandlet på to måder; man har endnu en gang fastholdt nødvendigheden af at uddybe, inden man udvider, og for det andet har man fastholdt nødvendigheden af ikke at skabe en ny deling i Europa.
It has also emphasized the rightful need for Turkey to honour its commitments as a member of the Council of Europe and the OSCE.
Hr. Fayot, og i dag, hr. Hänsch, har sagt, at effektiviteten af vores fælles skabsinstitutioner ikke afhænger af Kommissionens størrelse eller af stemmevægtningen i Rådet.
Against this back ground the European Union notes with interest that the new government, led by Mr Yilmaz, will be launching economic and social programmes in order to improve living conditions in the south-east of Turkey.
Effektiviteten af vores institutioner er afhængig af den måde, de træffer deres beslutninger på og af den måde, de er organiserede på.
At the meeting of the Association Council, the European Union recalled Turkey's pledge to make fresh efforts to respect human rights.
En reorganisation af Kommissionen vil finde sted, og jeg vil også foreslå Rådet at gennemgå sine arbejdsmetoder.
And yet there are some chinks of light, and it is on these chinks of light that our hopes rest: the real desire for a proper development of Turkish civil society as reflected in the initiatives of TÜSIAD; the business world in Turkey putting its muscle behind democratic development; the trade unions and small business federations in Turkey coming together for the first time ever in an effort to force democratic change in their own country.
Herudover er der spørgsmålet om det kvalificerede flertal.
This is the hope of the Turkish people themselves for peace and stability in the future.
Landmændene og vinavlerne må ikke blive hovedofrene for udvidelsen: Det, de beder om, er ikke mere støtte, men vilkår til at kunne producere ansvarligt såvel med hensyn til kvantitet som kvalitet.
Finally, my group really welcomes and congratulates President Demirel and Prime Minister Simitis of Greece for their ground-breaking meeting and agreement in Madrid.
Poos, rådsformand. - (FR) Hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, jeg vil gerne takke alle dem, der har reageret spontant på forelæggelsen af det luxembourgske formand skabs rammeprogram for de kommende seks måneder, og jeg takker dem oprigtigt på hele formandskabets vegne for de opmuntringer, som de har været så venlige at fremføre til det tiltrædende formandskab.
Mr President, I think that it would be premature to comment on the Commission's communication to the European Parliament and the Council on the subject of deepening the Customs Union, but I can assure you, ladies and gentlemen, that the Luxembourg Presidency will deal with this communication in the coming weeks and I am fully willing to come back to this question at your next part-session.
Jeg vil gerne kort besvare tre eller fire store temaer, der er gået igen i de fleste af de taler, som vi har hørt.
It is the same old responses from Turkey, the same old denials from Turkey and the same old promises from Turkey. What is more, from an increasingly discredited political elite in Turkey.
De femten medlemslande kunne for visse områder i traktaten acceptere mere kvalificeret flertal og en reduktion af de artikler, der endnu er underlagt enstemmighed.
Langen (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, unlike Mrs Green I believe that the new Turkish Government does give us cause for hope: hope that relations with Europe will return to normal, hope of further progress with democratization and human rights.
Men hvis man lægger antallet af vetoer sammen, der er fremsat af det ene eller andet land til den ene eller den anden kategori af beslutninger, kommer man frem til, må. jeg sige med klarhed, den lille liste over kvalificeret flertal, der findes i Amsterdamtraktaten.
I actually welcome the fact that Prime Minister Yilmaz was able to achieve, just four days ago, a relatively large majority in the Turkish Parliament, with the support of two social democratic parties.
Og hvis man i morgen igen ville kaste sig ud i denne øvelse med at kulegrave traktaten forfra og bagfra for her at finde andre artikler, hvor det kvalificerede flertal kunne indføres, ville man måske finde en eller to artikler til, men det ville ikke være forsøget værd.
I hope that this caretaker government will be able, between now and the next elections, to get things moving and to improve matters in areas where the predecessor governments under Erbakan and Ciller failed to make any progress.
Det første tema og den første udfordring, topmødet om beskæftigelsen, som vi på en effektiv måde skal forberede sammen med Dem.
Political alliances wax and wane and Turkish governments come, promise, and go.
Vi ved, at De ikke ønsker, at topmødet bliver et topmøde med deregulering, med demobilisering af retten til arbejde og faglige erobringer. Vi ved også, at topmødet ikke må blive en illusion eller en mediemæssig festival uden fremtid.
Remember the promise were ceived from the former Prime Minister of Turkey before we voted for the Customs Union in this House, to end anests for freedom of speech - that awful crime, freedom of speech and freedom of thought in Türkey!
Derfor har vi indledt en konkret procedure til forberedelse af topmødet ved mobilisering af alle energier i Europa for beskæftigelsen.
Well here today we have another press release from the new Prime Minister of Turkey, to end anests for freedom of speech by the end of this month and to give guarantees for all press freedoms.
I de kommende fire måneder indtil topmødet vil alle regeringer, alle sociale partnere, eksperter, politiske partier og Europa-Parlamentet blive mobiliseret for at meddele os deres forslag med henblik på, at dette topmøde skal lykkes.
I have formed the impression that today's debate is to some extent geared to defending the former government, which is no longer in office at all. We in the European Union must look to the future.
Med hensyn til nødvendigheden af at undgå en ny deling af Europa er jeg enig med alle dem, der har understreget dette krav.
I am expressly grateful to the Commission for taking an aggressive approach to this subject.
Det er nødvendigt, at processen med udvidelsen af Den Europæiske Union holder døren åben for alle ansøgerstaterne, at den bekræfter, at alle har interesse i at' tilslutte sig.
As far as our group is concerned, it is actually still too early to reach a final judgement today on what has happened in past years and months.
Det eneste ukendte for os for øjeblikket er tidspunktet for deres tiltrædelse. Det historiske foreta-
The new government needs time to lay its plans.
Poos gende med genforeningen af det europæiske kontinent må ikke blive offer for en procedurefejl.
Langen expectations which were raised when the Customs Union was concluded have still not been fulfilled.
Hr. formand, mine damer ¿g herrer, når dette er sagt, vil jeg gerne erindre de ærede parlamentsmedlemmer om, at respekten for menneskerettighederne og demokratiet i Tyrkiet fortsat bekymrer Ministerrådet.
presence felt, to stabilize its parliamentary majority, based on social democratic and conservative support, to introduce a new electoral law, to guarantee freedom of opinion and to implement all those articles that have rightly been refened to in this House.
Efter den tyrkiske indtrængen i det nordlige Irak har Rådet - vil jeg gerne erindre om - været meget bekymret.
The brief speech by the President-inOffice suggested to me that he basically shares this opinion.
Samtidig med at Den Europæiske Unions formandskab helt forstår Tyrkiets ønske om at få en ende på terroristhandlingerne, understregede det, at det kurdiske problem kun kan løses med politiske og ikke militære midler.
I should like to urge the House to give a moderate opinion, one in which we have no need to disown the position we take, Mrs Roth, but one in which we recognize the opportunities the new government has and jointly endeavour to ensure that Parliament's influence is made to count here.
Den fælles valuta er blevet nævnt af et vist antal talere.
The main point must still be that Turkey could be a candidate for membership of the Union.
Efter min mening indgår den fælles valuta i den stabile makroøkonomiske ramme, der er nødvendig for skabelsen af arbejdspladser.
The door is open if the criteria are met, and a great deal can be expected from candidate members.
Hvis vi forfejler dette mål, kaster vi os selv ud i en krise, der ødelægger arbejdspladser.
In asking such things of Turkey, we are not discriminating against it, but simply applying objective criteria in an extremely difficult situation.
Man skal snarere foregribe den, på det tidspunkt hvor det er åbenbart, at et betydeligt antal medlemsstater opfylder traktatens kriterier.
The' withdrawal of troops from northern Iraq is only the beginning of a long process which Turkey must go through before it can accede to the Union.
Det har forpligtet Tyrkiet til at udvise den største tilbage holdenhed især ikke at bringe uskyldige civile menneskers liv i fare.
Caccavale (UPE). - (LT) Mr President, I too believe that this debate on Turkey is taking place at a very sensitive and special time, at a moment of transition when it is very difficult to assess the intentions of the new government.
Det har for øvrigt opmuntret de ansvarlige tyrkere til hurtigst muligt at trække deres militærstyrker tilbage fra irakisk territorium.
Let us not forget that this government came into being in the wake of major diplomatic efforts and in response to pressures from parliamentary forces, and so it is a govern ment that should let us hope that this is going to be a new chapter in Turkish politics.
Vi vil ikke længere starte diskussionen.
And the integration of Northern Cyprus clearly implies a second invasion.
Hr. formand, jeg vil også gerne erindre om, at Den Europæiske Union på mødet i Associeringsrådet med Tyrkiet, der blev afholdt den 29. april i år i Luxembourg, igen bekræftede princippet med Tyrkiets mulighed for tiltrædelse i Den Europæiske Union, som Associeringsaftalen, der stammer fra 1963, for resten nævner det. Dette princip findes også i Kommissionens udtalelse, der stammer fra 1989, og som Rådet har gjort til sin.
What has happened in recent months cannot be passed over without comment because the risk, the danger we fear is that the parliamentary agreement that enabled confidence to be placed in the Ylmaz government could have involved deals with the armed forces - we hope this is not the case - giving them a free hand to operate, clearly violating human rights in the south-east of the country, in Kurdistan and Northern Iraq.
Derfor vil Tyrkiet blive bedømt på grundlag af de samme objektive normer og kriterier som de andre ansøgerlande.
I therefore believe that it is imperative to maintain an open channel of dialogue with the new Turkish government.
Samtidig understregede Den Europæiske Union, at den fortsatte styrkelse af relationerne mellem Den Europæiske Union og Tyrkiet er afhængig af et vist antal objektive kendsgerninger, herunder en løsning af det kurdiske spørgsmål.
We have, of course, to call for compliance with the Interna tional Convention on Human Rights, as signed by Turkey - that is absolutely clear; and we must call for an improvement in the conditions in which detainees are cunentiy held in Turkish jails simply because for express ing their views - the most despicable reason for imprisoning a citizen - that too is absolutely clear.
Det latinamerikanske topmøde er vi endnu ikke begyndt at forberede konkret.
But we must careful not to close the door to this new experiment in government.
Samtidig med at være bevidst om omfanget af det problem, som Tyrkiet står overfor i den sydøstlige del af landet, har Unionen ikke desto mindre understreget, at kampen mod terrorisme skal føres med respekt for menneskerettighederne og retsstaten.
Democracy and human rights has to mean more than the routine cosmetic protestations churned out by Mrs Ciller's prayer wheel before customs union.
Den er derfor kommet med en appel, om at der findes en politisk løsning. Den har understreget, at det er absolut nødvendigt, at Tyrkiet opfylder de forpligtelser, der påhviler det som medlem af Europarådet og OSCE.
Democratization means providing a solid foundation for basic rights, such as guaranteed freedom of opinion and freedom of the press, as a precondition for any further open consideration of the future in Turkey.
Det ønsker jeg, at De vil blive ved med at være i de kommende måneder, og det luxembourgske formandskab vil bestræbe sig på ikke at skuffe deres forventninger.
Was it not specifically the last military coup in Turkey, in 1980, that left the present legacy of antidemocratic structures?
(Bifald) Formanden. - Mange tak, hr. Poos, for Deres svar.
But when I say no more walls, I also mean, indeed I particularly mean, that existing walls must be torn down.
Det ser ud til, at størstedelen af de tyrkiske militære styrker nu har trukket sig tilbage fra det irakiske territorium.
Bertens (ELDR). - (NL) Mr President, Parliament is in fact very late in the day in discussing the situation in Turkey and northern Iraq.
I den forbindelse noterer Den Europæiske Union med interesse, at den nye regering, med hr. Yilmaz i spidsen, vil igangsætte økonomiske og sociale program mer med henblik på at forbedre levevilkårene i den sydøstlige del af landet.
Turkey has been occupying part of this neighbouring sovereign country for several months now, without very much criticism being heard.
Og på mødet i Associeringsrådet erindrede Den Europæiske Union om den forpligtelse, som Tyrkiet har indgået om at gøre en fornyet indsats, for at menneskerettighederne overholdes.
Although I reject the tenorism of the PKK, this response from Turkey is no basis for a peaceful solution.
Formanden. - Næste punkt på dagsordenen er redegørelse fra Rådet om situationen i Tyrkiet og det nordlige Irak.
An immediate with drawal is of course required, to be combined with a recognition of the minority rights of the Kurds.
Jeg havde for seks år siden i forbindelse med det luxembourgske formandskab lejlighed til at føre dialog med Parlamentet om samme emne, der i dag optager os, og
I am pleased to say that the political instability seems to have been reduced with the anival of the new govern ment.
Det er det håb, vi har for fremtiden.
No 4­504/157
Green (PSE). - (EN) Hr. formand, så skal vi endnu en gang til at drøfte Tyrkiet.
Dupuis (ARE). ­ (FR) Mr President, I am not one of those who like Mrs Green likes nothing better than taking potshots at Turkey.
Det er de samme gamle svar fra Tyrkiet, de samme gamle benægtelser fra Tyrkiet og de samme gamle løfter fra Tyrkiet.
I disagree with the Council, and I think that the European Union's policy towards Turkey is different to that con­ducted vis­à­vis other countries.
Hvad mere er, de kommer fra en politisk elite i Tyrkiet, som bliver mindre og mindre troværdig.
Turkey is not on the fist of candidate countries for the European Union and the Turkish people have fully understood what that means.
Langen (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, jeg mener i modsætning til fru Green, at den nye tyrkiske regering giver anledning til håb, håb om normalisering af forholdet til Europa, om yderligere fremskridt af demokratiseringen og med hensyn til menneskerettighederne.
Lambrias (PPE). ­ (EL) Mr. President, first of all, while congratulating the President­in­Office of the Council for the clear way in which he presented the Luxembourg Presidency's programme, I would like to remind him that ■ it was Mr Poos himself who, in the same capacity six years ago, advocated with equal clarity the need for a solution to the Cyprus problem.
Jeg er egentlig glad for, at ministerpræsident Yilmaz for fire dage siden fandt et relativt bredt flertal i den tyrkiske nationalforsamling, med støtte fra to socialdemokratiske partier.
We are now approaching the end not just of six, but of twenty­three years since the Turkish invasion of Cyprus and the tragedy of that dismembered island still continues in defiance of the principles of international law.
Politiske alliancer vokser op og dør hen, og tyrkiske regeringer kommer, afgiver deres løfter og går.
I think that we are reproducing with Turkey what was scientifically constructed over ten years in Yugoslavia's case and which led to the disaster that we know only too well.
Husk engang det løfte, vi fik fra den tidligere tyrkiske premierminister, før vi stemte for toldunionen her i Europa-Parlamentet, om at få sat en stopper for arrestationerne i forbindelse med ytringsfriheden - den frygtelige forbrydelse, som friheden til at tale og tænke er i Tyrkiet!
However the European Union should clearly propose and clearly tell Turkey that it can enter the European Union and also tell it the conditions under which it can enter or join the European Union or, on the contrary, all of this is bla­bla­bla which is just an alibi for Turkey, enabling it not to respect human rights and enabling the European Union to continue to believe that it can conduct a half­hearted policy which is not a policy at all as we know very well and which will lead to disaster, disasters such as the ones in former Yugoslavia or Algeria.
Da jeg var i Tyrkiet i marts måned i år, fik vi et løfte fra den daværende tyrkiske regering om, at man ville sikre, at der inden årets udgang ville være sat en stopper for enhver form for krænkelse af menneskerettighederne i Tyrkiet.
Unfortunately, there is another Turkish invasion. Other flagrant violations of law are continuing, because the gulf between proper declarations and the political will to implement them encourages the perpetrators, who in the face of international outcry, invent excuses, give vague promises, and slander their victims.
Undtagelsestilstanden i det sydøstlige Tyrkiet blev oprindeligt indført den 19. juli 1987, næsten på dato for ti år siden, og i den mellemliggende periode er der næsten 26.500 men nesker, der er døde. Det er det officielle tal.
But for Ankara, as its President declared a few days ago in Brussels, there is no war, there is no nation of 14 to 15 million without rudimentary human rights, without the possibility of being educated and communicating in its own language.
Og som det fremgår af beslutningsforslaget, så var der mere end 1.800 mennesker, der mistede livet under Tyrkiets seneste aktion i det nordlige Irak.
So Turkey is entitled to execute, to imprison, to torture, to persecute anyone who supports the rights of the Kurds, even members of parliament, authors and journalists, and fi­nally, to invade a foreign country.
Jeg har det indtryk, at en del af forhandlingen i dag sigter mod at forsvare den gamle regering, som slet ikke fungerer længere.
Dankert (PSE). ­ (NL) Mr President, it appears to me that the Commission's Agenda 2000 document, which has been received so favourably here this morning, has landed as a kind of bombshell in Turkey.
Som Europæisk Union skal vi se fremad. Jeg er Kommissionen meget taknemlig for, at den offensivt tager dette spørgsmål op.
In the discussions yesterday evening with our Turkish colleagues in the Joint Parliamentary Committee, I have never seen them so bitter, and Mr Ecevit's statement about the annexing of Northern Cyprus points in the same direction.
For vor gruppe er det egentlig stadig for tidligt i dag at udtale sig endeligt om, hvad der er foregået i de forløbne år og måneder. Den nye regering behøver nemlig tid til at udarbejde sin politik.
However, I think this is somewhat mistaken of the Turks, because it was to be expected what Europe's position on Turkey would be at the present time.
Den behøver tid til at sætte sig igennem, til at stabilisere sit socialdemokratisk og konservativt orienterede flertal i parlamentet, at indføre en ny valgret, at sikre ytringsfriheden og gennemføre alle de artikler, som med rette blev. taget op i Parlamentet. Derfor ville det være bedre ikke at føre denne debat nu, men lige efter sommerpausen.
The option of membership remains open and relations can be developed further, but in political terms at any rate, a number of serious obsta­cles stand in the way of accession.
Råds formandens korte redegørelse viste mig, at han egentlig er af samme opfattelse.
And as Mrs Green has already pointed out, these are obstacles of which the Turks themselves are increasingly aware.
Jeg vil gerne slå til lyd for, at vi afgiver en moderat udtalelse, hvor vi ikke behøver at fornægte vor holdning, fru Roth, hvor vi imidlertid erkender den nye regerings muligheder og i fællesskab bestræber os på, at Parlamentet gør sin indflydelse gældende her.
When I look at what social forces such as the trade union movement and employers' organizations are saying as regards democrati­zation, their demands and wishes correspond reasonably well with what we are saying, and that is a step forward.
Dette gælder selvfølgelig også for Tyrkiets tilbagetrækning fra det nordlige Irak. Her er vi vel alle enige.
I think it is also important in terms of these future pros­pects, which I gladly hold out for the Turks.
