Vil Rådet udtale sig om forlydender om, at de franske styrker efter deres tilbagetrækning fra Rwanda i midten af august 1994 undlod at give FN's Hjælpekommission for Rwanda en liste over personer, der var mistænkt for folkedrab og andre kriminelle handlinger, og løslod tilbageholdte personer, som var anklaget for folkedrab?
Since the outbreak of the crisis, some Ecu 500 million has been spent from the Community budget on humanitarian assistance and aid to the Great Lakes region. Furthermore, the individual Member States make available substantial sums of money in the form of bilateral aid.
spørgsmål nr. 4 af Glenys Kinnock (H-0447/95): Om: Rwanda
I should like to ask you a more specific question concerning the European Union action.
Vil Rådet lægge pres på den indiske regering for at få tilladt besøg af Amnesty International, demokratisk valgte politikere og medierne?
The promotion of national reconciliation, further broadening of the base of the new government and creating the conditions that are essential for the refugees' return are matters of crucial importance in this context.
Kan Rådet forestille sig, at FN kan komme til at spille en rolle i de drøftelser og den dialog, det talte om?
The Council is of the opinion that all aid should be granted in accordance with the results achieved in these areas.
Hvilken politik har Rådet ført vedrørende våbenleverancer fra Zaire og en række internationale leverandører til de tidligere rwandiske væbnede styrker efter indførelsen af våbenembargoenden 17. maj 1994?
The United Nations Security Council has imposed an arms embargo on Rwanda, through Resolution 918 of 17 May 1995.
og spørgsmål nr. 5 af Arthur Newens (H-0448/95): Om: Rwanda
Monitoring the implementation of that resolution is therefore the responsibility of the UN Security Council.
Westendorp. — (£5) De Forenede Nationers rolle vil uden tvivl være velkommen, og derudover vil jeg geme gøre Dem opmærksom på, at da trojkaen deltog i dialogen med Indien, hvor jeg selv var til stede på vegne af det fremtidige spanske formandskab, lagde vi stor vægt på, at Indien skulle respektere menneskerettighederne og acceptere de humanitære besøg. De omtaler.
Westendorp. — (£5) I understand the honourable Member's dissatisfaction, and I fully share it.
Pollack (PSE). — (EN) Jeg vil geme undskylde over for rådsformanden, at vi starter hans periode her i Parlamentet med et så usædvanlig vanskeligt emne.
The situation in Rwanda is intolerable, and the European Union must do everything in its power to help resolve it.
Vi er klar over, at han ikke kan løse det personligt fra den ene dag til den anden.
I would agree that despite the measures that are being and will continue to be taken, this is an alarming situation which is not improving.
Vil Rådet udtale sig om Frankrigs levering af fem våbensendinger til de tidligere rwandiske væbnede styrker via Goma i Zaire i maj og juni 1994 efter indførelsen af våbenembargoen den 17. maj 1994 og oplyse, om dette er i overensstemmelse med dets politik?
The arms deliveries to refugee camps outside Rwanda are also a cause for concern for the European Union, which has agreed to raise this issue with the UN Secretary-General and support the latter's plans to set up a commission of inquiry. The Union is ready to assist in the work of this commission.
Det er den anden rande af bortførelser af uskyldige turister i Kashmir. En af mine vælgere, hr. Mangan, er således en af dem, der er i hænderne på oprørerne.
With regard to action in the judicial field, I think it is beyond question that the issue of the functioning of the international tribunal on Rwanda must be resolved.
Jeg synes, at vi som europæisk Union bør lægge større pres på Indien og Pakistan for at få dem til at mødes.
It held its first meeting on 27 June last, and let us hope that this will prove to be a step in the right direction.
Det er forfærdelig længe siden, og den bilaterale dialog har stadig ikke løst dette problem, der bliver mere og mere alvorligt, og uskyldige risikerer at bliver ofre for situationen.
The Council will continue to follow closely the situation on the ground, and will pay the utmost attention to the efforts to promote the restoration of stability and the rule of law in Rwanda.
I et forsøg på at mindske krisen og lette det præventive diplomatis opgaver, vedtog Den Europæiske Union en fællesholdning den 24. oktober 1994, hvori man fastslog prioriteterne i Den Europæiske Unions politik vedrørende Rwanda.
Furthermore, there is a need for the mandate provided by Resolution 997 to be renewed, and for the United Nations aid mission to be extended until December of this year, with a view to reducing the number of UN troops in Rwanda from 2330 to a total of 1800 within four months.
Disse prioriteter omfatter humanitær hjælp, støtte til områder som uddannelse, sundhed, boliger samt foranstaltninger til at afhjælpe de negative virkninger af krisen i nabolandene.
These form part of a series of measures which should continue to be implemented — although I agree that the situation is neither satisfactory nor reassuring.
Derudover vedtog man den 25. november 1994 et rehabiliteringsprogram til en værdi af 67 millioner ecu.
With regard to the references made in some questions to a particular Member State — France, to be precise — I am bound to say that the Council does not have the competence to reply to questions regarding individual Member States.
Som en del af dette program befinder der sig i øjeblikket i Rwanda 30 menneskerettighedsobservatører fra Den Europæiske Union.
It therefore suggests that the honourable Members refer to the positions adopted by this Member State at national level.
Siden begyndelsen af krisen er der anvendt 500 millioner ecu af fællesskabsbudgettet til humanitær bistand og hjælpeaktioner i området ved de store søer. Derudover bidrager medlems staterne med betydelige beløb i form af bilateral støtte.
Kinnock, Glenys (PSE). — I welcome the President-in-Office and apologize, as my colleague said earlier, that we are presenting you with seemingly very tragic and intractable problems here this afternoon.
Efter vores mening bør hjemvendelsen af flygtningene prioriteres højt.
I should like to pursue again the issue of the delivery of arms to the former government of Rwanda.
I denne forbindelse er det afgørende, at der sker en forsoning, at den nye regerings grundlag udvides, og at man sørger for at skabe de livsnødvendige forudsætninger for en sådan hjemvendelse.
In the light of the UN Security Council resolution and the fact that in this House the former French Prime Minister, Michel Rocard, has recently acknowledged that powerful autonomous elements in the French Government are continuing to operate with impunity in Africa, I should like a definitive answer on what the Council proposes to do to prevent military activities by Rwandan nationals and other forces in neighbouring states.
Rådet mener, at enhver form for hjælp bør ydes i henhold til de resultater, der er opnået på disse områder.
All of these actions, of course, are aimed at destabilizing the Rwandan Government.
Westendorp. — (ES) Rådet har udøvet og vil også i fremtiden under det spanske formandskab udøve et konstant pres i to retninger.
Torres Couto (PSE). - (PT) Mr President, I listened carefully to what the President-in-Office said and would like to tell him that, in spite of his reply, I am still very concerned about the near future in Rwanda.
Mod Indien, hvor man navnlig vil kræve overholdelse af menneskerettighederne, genoptagelse af den dialog, der har været afbrudt siden 1993, samt en garanti for udskrivning af valg.
We have information — from impeccable sources — that refugee camps really are being armed and enormous quantities of military hardware are being unloaded that could lead to a further genocide — and once again Europe is just standing by.
Og mod Pakistan, hvor man navnlig vil appellere til, at man opgiver enhver aktivitet, der ansporer til militante handlinger, samt støtte i form af våben, penge og personer, hvilket skader de ægte kashmirske militante organisationer og civilbefolkningen i almindelighed.
There is another question than we cannot shirk: we cannot only talk in humanitarian terms, helping with housing or rehabilitation programmes when structural aid is lacking.
Jeg takker for de oplysninger, jeg får fra de ærede medlemmer, som vi helt bestemt vil tage med i betragtning i forbindelse med Rådets indsats de næste seks måneder.
It is vital for the Council, in terms of aid, to have a clear vision of what aid should consist in so that it can tell us on what conditions it is being provided in order to reestablish structural aid in Rwanda.
FN's Sikkerhedsråd indførte ved resolution 918 af 17. maj 1995 våbenembargo mod Rwanda. Derfor skal Sikkerhedsrådet overvåge gennemførelsen af denne resolution.
Secondly, I would also like to ask whether the Council would consider sending military observers to airports and bases, particularly in eastern Zaire, in order to ensure that this UN arms embargo can be properly enforced.
Formanden. — Da de følgende spørgsmål vedrører samme emne, vil vi under ét behandle spørgsmål nr. 2 af José Torres Couto (H-0442/95):
Westendorp. — (ES) With regard to the first issue, the news of the arms deliveries to the Great Lakes region — and, in particular, to refugee camps outside Rwandan territory — is undoubtedly a serious cause for concern for the European Union.
Overførsler af våben til flygtningelejrene uden for Rwanda har også givet anledning til bekymring i Unionen, som vedtog at forelægge dette spørgsmål for FN's generalsekretær og støtte hans planer om at oprette en undersøgelseskommission.
Westendorp. — (ES) The European Union has not yet looked at that possibility, though it is supporting the plans to set up a commission of inquiry to help the Security Council in its task of monitoring the implementation of Resolution 918.
Unionen er indstillet på at bidrage til denne kommissions arbejde.
Certainly over the next few days — in my personal opinion — the Union must keep a very close watch on arms deliveries.
I betragtning af rapporten i »Human Rights Watch Arms Project«, der gør rede for og advarer mod truslen om et nyt folkemord i flygtningelejrene i Zaire, hvilken rolle mener Rådet da, at Den Europæiske Union bør påtage sig for at undgå, at der for vore øjne udspiller sig en ny forbrydelse
I am unable to anticipate the Council's reply, but there is no doubt that the Spanish presidency will take all the necessary measures.
Rådet vil fortsat følge situationen i landet på nært hold og vil rette al sin opmærksomhed mod overvågningen af foranstalt-
The Union has agreed to support the UN Secretary-General's plans to set up a commission of inquiry to investigate this matter, and to give full backing to the UN Security Council in its task of monitoring the implementation of Resolution 918 of 17 May 1995, by means of which the arms embargo on Rwanda was imposed.
Westendorp ningerne til genoprettelse af stabiliteten og retstilstanden i landet.
I wish to refer, for the moment, only to the association agreement initialled on 15 June.
Denne række af foranstaltninger bør man fortsat søge at iværksætte, men jeg forstår også, at situationen hverken er tilfredsstillende eller beroligende.
But what hope is there for a common foreign and security policy if, in fact, it is true that one Member State deliberately flouted the embargo?
Hvad angår nogle af spørgernes omtale af et bestemt land, helt konkret Frankrig, må jeg sige, at Rådet ikke har kompetence til at svare på spørgsmål vedrørende medlemsstaterne.
Jean-Claude Urbino, the French Consul in Goma at the time of the arrival of five shipments of arms at Goma Airport in 1994, as mentioned in my question, confirmed that the delivery had taken place but, apparently, the contracts predated the embargo.
Derfor opfordrer jeg de ærede medlemmer til at henholde sig til de holdninger, den pågældende medlemsstat har indtaget på nationalt plan.
If the French Government denies responsibility, perhaps, as Mrs Kinnock suggests, there are some elements in the French administration which are not acting in line with their government's policy.
Glenys Kinnock (PSE). — (EN) Jeg vil geme byde rådsformanden velkommen og som min kollega undskylde, at vi forelægger Dem så tragiske og vanskelige problemer her i eftermiddag.
My supplementary question is the following: does the President-in-Office believe that the Council will give the green light to the signing of the agreement at its meeting scheduled for 17 July?
Jeg vil geme endnu en gang komme ind på emnet våbenleverancer til den tidligere regering i Rwanda.
Because in my view, there are two timetables involved: that of the signing, and that of ratification.
I lyset af FN's Sikkerhedsråds resolution og det forhold, at den tidligere franske premierminister Michel Rocard for nylig her i Parlamentet har indrømmet, at magtfulde, selvstændige elementer under den franske regering fortsat ustraffet opererer i Afrika, vil jeg geme have et endeligt svar på, hvad Rådet påtænker at gøre for at hindre militære aktiviteter i Rwanda udført af nationale styrker og andre styrker i nabostaterne. Alle disse aktioner har naturligvis til formål at svække Rwandas regering.
And I believe that the agreement could be signed in the near future, without prejudice to it being ratified — by the 15 national parliaments, the Slovene Parliament and the European Parliament — once the necessary constitutional amendments, which the government has proposed and which are currently going through the normal democratic procedures, have been introduced. duced.
Torres Couto (PSE). — (PT) Jeg har opmærksomt lyttet til rådsformandens svar, men jeg må indrømme, at det ikke har kunnet bortvejre min bekymring for Rwandas nærmeste frem tid. Vi er i besiddelse af oplysninger — hvis kilde er os bekendt som troværdig — om at oprustningen i flygtningelejrene er en realitet, at der losses enorme mængder af krigsmateriel, som kan resultere i endnu et folkedrab, og endnu en gang halter Europa langt efter begivenhederne.
I wish to stress the importance of Slovenia's application for membership; because whereas some Members take the view that Bosnia should be incorporated into the Union as soon as possible — and I salute their goodwill — I believe that it makes sense to first allow a country which is not at war to join our Community, and whose commitment to peace has been clear throughout its history.
Desuden er der et andet problem, som vi ikke kan ignorere, nemlig at det ikke på indeværende tidspunkt er nok at tale om humanitær hjælp, bistand til bosættelse og rehabiliteringsprogrammer, når bistanden til den strukturelle udvikling er suspenderet.
Westendorp. — (ES) What I shall do, Mr Newens, is convey the concerns of the honourable Members — who are undoubtedly far more familiar with the situation in Rwanda than I am — to the Council, so that they can be addressed within the framework of the common foreign and security policy.
Det er således af allerstørste vigtighed, at Rådet afklarer sin holdning til spørgsmålet om bistand og præciserer, under hvilke betingelser det er rede til hurtigt at genetablere bistanden til den strukturelle udvikling i Rwanda.
I trust — although I do not have the relevant information to hand — that the honourable Members asked the same questions of my counterpart in the previous presidency, since he or she would have been more familiar with this matter than myself.
Westendorp. — (ES) Meddelelserne om våbensendinger til området ved de store søer og navnlig til flygtningelejrene uden for Rwandas territorium giver anledning til alvorlig bekymring i Den Europæiske Union.
Subject: Steps towards Slovenia's membership of the European Union
Unionen har vedtaget at støtte FN's generalsekretærs planer om at oprette en undersøgelseskommission og give al sin støtte til FN's Sikkerhedsråd i dets arbejde med at overvåge gennem førelsen af resolution 918 af 17. maj 1995, der fastslog våbenembargoen mod Rwanda.
Westendorp. — (ES) Undoubtedly, the Council shares the wish that Slovenia should form part of the group of states applying for membership of the Union in the not too distant future.
Westendorp. — (ES) Unionen har endnu ikke overvejet denne mulighed, men man har støttet den undersøgelseskommission, som bistår Sikkerhedsrådet i arbejdet med at overvåge gen nemførelsen af resolution 918.
At the same time, it hopes that the constitutional amendments proposed by the Slovene Government will be sufficiently credible to allow Slovenia's longstanding problems with a certain neighbouring Member State to be resolved.
Den Europæiske Union vil uden tvivl i de nærmeste dage — det er min personlige mening — skulle foretage en streng overvågning af våbensendingeme.
For, like the honourable Member, the Council believes that Slovenia has won the right to join the European Union. It is its greatest wish, therefore, that Slovenia should form part of the group of states applying for membership as soon as possible.
Jeg kan ikke på nuværende tidspunkt sige, hvad Rådets svar vil være, men fra formandskabets side vil alle de nødvendige bestræbelser blive udfoldet.
I do not know if this can be accomplished on 17 July, but in any event, the presidency will do everything possible to ensure that the problems referred to are resolved without delay.
Needle (PSE). — (EN) Jeg vil gerne takke rådsformanden for det første svar. Selv om jeg håber, at De forstår, at jeg udtrykker utilfredshed med det, da mange medlemmer har anmodet om svar fra den franske regering i nogen tid — hidtil uden held.
Since Slovenia is the most economically stable and politically free of all the independent republics which emerged from the break-up of Yugoslavia, what are the Council's plans to implement the steps which must be taken to admit Slovenia, if it so desires, as a full member of the European Union?
Newens (PSE). — (EN) Jeg vil geme takke rådsformanden for det, han sagde.
Posselt (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, I am the rapporteur on Slovenia in the Committee on External Economic Relations.
Jeg er klar over, at han ikke er personligt ansvarlig for en anden medlemsstats handlinger.
The Council and the Commission had promised us several times that the agreement would be signed in Cannes.
Men hvordan kan vi håbe på at nå frem til en fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik, hvis det er sandt, at en medlemsstat bevidst omgår embargoen?
I really must ask that the signing take place very soon and that the bilateral problems be resolved as the ratification process develops.
Jean-Claude Urbino, der var fransk konsul i Goma, da de fem våbenforsendelser ankom til Goma Lufthavn i 1994, således som jeg har nævnt i mit spørgsmål, bekræftede, at leverancen havde fundet sted, men tilsyneladende er fakturaerne dateret før embargoen.
Westendorp, President-in-Office of the Council. — (£5) I welcome the opportunity to answer a question from a fellow countryman who takes an interest in Slovenia, as does the Council.
Hvis den franske regering nægter at påtage sig ansvaret, er der måske, som fru Kinnock foreslår, nogle elementer under den franske regering, der ikke handler i overensstemmelse med deres regerings politik.
As the honourable Member will be aware, on 6 March 1995, a set of negotiating guidelines for the Commission were approved.
Jeg vil gerne stille Dem et mere specifikt spørgsmål om Den Europæiske Unions aktiviteter.
The Commission opened negotiations, and those negotiations led to the initialling, on 15 June 1995, of an association agreement between the European Union and Slovenia.
Westendorp. — (ES) Jeg forstår udmærket Deres utilfredshed, som jeg fuldt ud deler.
That would be a realistic, straightforward step which would give people hope.
Jeg mener, situationen i Rwanda er uudholdelig, og at Den Europæiske Union bør gøre alt, hvad der er i dens magt for at forsøge at løse den, og jeg er enig i, at på trods af de forholdsregler, der tages og fortsat vil blive taget, er situationen bekymrende og har ikke forbedret sig.
I know, for example, from Professor Topic of the University of Sarajevo how important the extension of the PHARE programme to those countries would be to their peoples, since it would enable them to focus on new horizons beyond the war.
Westendorp. — (£5) Jeg vil videregive Deres bekymringer til Rådet, for at man inden for rammerne af den fælles udenrigsog sikkerhedspolitik kan være bekendt med bekymringerne hos de ærede medlemmer, der uden tvivl kender mere til forholdene i Rwanda, end jeg gør.
Westendorp. — (ES) Apart from the longstanding problem to which I referred, and which I hope can be resolved by means of goodwill on all sides, there is another problem of a bureaucratic and practical nature: the agreement has not yet been translated into all eleven official Community languages.
Hvad angår foranstaltningerne på det judicielle område, mener jeg helt bestemt, at man bør beslutte, hvordan Det Internationale Tribunal for Rwanda skal fungere.
Moreover, in accordance with the Essen guidelines, these negotiations cannot begin until six months after the conclusion of the 1996 Intergovernmental Conference.
Tribunalet afholdt det første møde den 27. juni. og vi håber, at det er et skridt i den rigtige retning.
Unquestionably, Slovenia must be included in this group of countries, and will be as soon as the bilateral problems to which I have referred have been resolved.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 6 af Carlos Robles Piquer (H-0369/95):
However, the Council is ready to give free and frank consideration to any such proposal.
Om: Skridt henimod Sloveniens optagelse i Den Europæiske Union
President — As they deal with the same subject, the following questions will be taken together:
Jeg ved ikke, om dette kan skeden 17. juli, men under alle omstændigheder vil formandskabet gøre alt, hvad der muligt, for at løse vanskelighederne så hurtigt som muligt.
Nevertheless, the Council is following closely the development of the situation, and this is the framework in which the interests J all parties will best be defended.
Posselt (PPE). — (DE) Hr. formand, jeg er ordfører i Udvalget om Eksterne Økonomiske Forbindelser for Slovenien. Rådet og Kommissionen har flere gange lovet os, at man i Cannes ville skride til undertegnelse.
The resolution of 8 June, to which the honourable Members refer, states only that the Turkish Grand National Assembly cedes powers to the Turkish Government at national level.
Jeg vil derfor indtrængende bede om, at undertegnelsen snart foretages, og at de bilaterale problemer løses parallelt med ratificeringsproceduren. Ellers vil der opstå en meget farlig udsættelse til efter det næste italienske valg.
The European Union reiterates its well-known position that disputes between neighbouring states must be resolved in full accordance with the international legal provisions that are in force.
Som De ved, blev der den 6. marts 1995 vedtaget nogle forhandlingsretningslinjer for Kommissionen, som indledte forhandlinger med Slovenien, hvilket den 15. juni 1995 førte til en parafering af associeringsaftalen mellem Unionen og Slovenien.
On 8 June 1995 the Turkish Grand National Assembly adopted a resolution of the ratification by Greece of the International Convention on the Law of the Sea; this resolution contains a threat that Turkey will go to war against a Member State of the European Union, namely Greece.
Undertegnelsen og ratificeringen af aftalen afhænger imidlertid bl.a. af en betingelse, der er stillet af en medlemsstat, nemlig at Slovenien ændrer lovgivningen om bl.a. adkomsten til ejendoms- og jordbesiddelse i Slovenien.
The resolution reads as follows: 'the Turkish Grand National Assembly has decided, in order to main tain and defend vital national interests, to cede all its powers to the Turkish Government, including those judged necessary from a military point of view'.
Og det lader til, at den slovenske regering allerede har fremsat forslag om ændringen til parlamentet.
Will the Council say what measures it intends to take in respect of Turkey, given that Article L.J. 1 (2) of the Treaty on European Union provides that the central objective of the common foreign and security policy of the Union is to strengthen the security of the Union and of its Member States in all ways?
