Det er en sætning, som jeg mener, man tillagde Alphonse Karr i forrige århundrede under debatten om dødsstraf. Det var en tid, hvor man virkelig var åndrig i denne type debat.
We must deplore these killings, and call on the Colombian Government to hunt these murderers down and see that they are punished.
Det er ikke første gang, at Parlamentet udtaler sig herom.
This is not the first time that the European Parliament has expressed itself on this subject.
I februar optog vi Colombia mellem de ti lande i verden, der har de alvorligste problemer med hensyn til menneskerettighederne og vold.
In February we included Columbia among the ten countries in the world with the most serious human rights and violence problems.
Vi har vist den colombianske regering tillid ved, at Den Europæiske Union og denne regering har underskrevet handelspræferenceaftaler.
We trusted in the Columbian Government when the European Union and that government signed preferential trade agreements.
Men denne tillid skal også støttes på utvetydige tegn på forsvar for menneskerettighederne og demokratiet fra denne regerings side.
That confidence should also be linked with unquestionable signs of defending human rights and democracy given by the Columbian Government.
Man må søge at finde de ansvarlige, og dersom der er tale om paramilitære styrker, er denne regering dog ansvarlig, fordi den svækker sin troværdighed, hvis den ikke søger efter disse.
We must find those responsible and even if they are paramilitaries, this is the responsibility of the Columbian Government. If it does not try to track them down, it loses its credibility.
Afskaffelsen af dødsstraffen er blevet et af de centrale elementer i det, man kan kalde den europæiske humanisme, og det udtrykkes ganske udmærket i den fælles beslutning.
Further than this, however, we should reflect on the fact that the European Union played a key role in helping to restore peace in Central America and is cooperating with Latin America as a whole in a bid to achieve both closer relations and development.
Det er under alle omstændigheder den filosofi, der ligger til grand for denne beslutning.
That is the only way in the long ran that we can reaUy feel satisfied we are making a real contribution to end this appalling horror.
For at blive integreret i det Europa, som vi er i færd med at opbygge, er det ikke tilstrækkeligt at afskaffe dødsstraffen for at vise, at man respekterer menneskerettighederne, men det er en nødvendig forudsætning.
Moorhouse (PPE). - Madam President, a number of disquieting reports have been reaching our ears about serious human rights violations in Colombia, particularly in recent months.
Og vi ved, at på det strafferetlige område findes der mange andre straffe, man kan begynde med livstid, som ikke ville være noget uden tvangsarbejdet, som en person i en berømt film udtrykker det: »Der er mange andre, mange andre straffe«.
It has been difficult to verify some of these aUegations, partly, perhaps, because they are said to have occurred in very remote parts of Colombia. How ever, as we have heard from the previous two speakers, there can be no doubt about the tragic situation which has arisen in regard to the family named in the resolution, and not only that famüy.
Det er glædeligt, at der i denne forsamling er enighed, og at ingen har talt for at nuancere den beslutning, som vi skal vedtage om lidt.
We look to the Colombian Government in the first place to make a thorough investigation and, in the absence of any
Men det er ikke første gang, vi taler om Colombia, og jeg frygter, at vi endnu mange gange må beklage os derover her i huset.
Bertens spoken about Colombia here in the House, and I fear that it will by no means be the last.
Vi er blandt andet bekymrede for Neftalí Vanegas, hvis liv angiveligt har været i fare inden for de seneste uger, og hvis organisation delvist finansieres af Europa-Kommissionen.
Burma agenda for our diplomatic and political discussions and economic negotiations with the ASEAN States.
Måske vil kommissæren være så venlig at kommentere netop denne sag.
This makes it all the more incomprehensible to me when I see attempts being made in the European Union to develop relations with Burma - I have to endorse Mrs Günther's views on that subject.
Newens (PSE). - (EN) Fru formand, Colombia har i næsten et halvt århundrede lidt under vold og ubarmhjertige drab i et rædselsvækkende omfang.
The Munich Messegesellschaft -the Trade Fair Society - would like to hold a meeting at the next fair in Rangoon.
En gruppe svært bevæbnede drabsmænds myrdede disse mennesker og begik voldshandlinger mod deres nærmeste slægtninge, hvilket er et eksempel på den hensynsløse grusomhed hos dem, der er ansvarlige for terrorhandlingerne i Colombia i dag.
Mayor Monatzeder, a fellow Green, has protested against the trip and has called for its cancellation, and I hope we are united behind this protest and that we can persuade the Messegesellschaft in Munich not to support the Burmese regime in this way.
Günther (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, rådsformanden sagde under sin redegørelse i går bl.a., at man under ASEAN-konferencen havde talt i to en halv time om Burma, og at det i sig selv var et håbefuldt tegn.
Günther (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, yesterday in his address the President of the Council referred to the fact that the ASEAN conference had discussed Burma for two and a half hours, which he interpreted as an encouraging sign.
Men når oppositionslederen Aung San Sun Kyi trods Nobel-pris, trods Sakharov-pris, på den anden side egentlig høres så lidt i offentligheden, kan det godt være, at man faktisk må anse en debat på to en halv time, som egentlig er selvfølgelig, for at være en vis succes.
If, on the other hand, so little is heard in public of the opposition leader Aung San Sun Kyi, despite her Nobel Prize and her Sakharov Prize, it may well be that even a two-and-a-half-hour debate, which is only right and proper, has to be regarded as something of a success.
Men hvor lidt man end hører oppositionslederen, så hører man endnu mindre de tusinder af bøm, som har mistet livet som følge af tvangsarbejde og andre foranstaltninger. Dette tales der egentlig relativt sjældent om.
But little though the voice of the opposition spokeswoman is heard, even less is heard of the thousands of children who die as a result of forced labour and other measures.
Hvad skal man så forvente af disse landes regeringschefer, hvoraf kun en enkelt har udtalt sig imod, at Burma optages i statsfællesskabet?
So what are we to expect of the heads of government of the ASEAN countries when only one of them has voiced opposition to Burmese accession?
Det skønnes, at 650 mennesker er blevet ofre for volden i Colombia i løbet af de seneste seks måneder, heriblandt også fattige bønder.
Money and goods are evidently more important than fundamental values and standards, whilst in Burma, de mocracy continues to be undermined and human rights violated.
Man regner faktisk med, at næsten en million mennesker er flygtet fra deres hjem for at undgå den vold, der har en så katastrofal indvirkning på alle livets aspekter i landet.
In May, Mrs Aung San Suu Kyi's house arrest was tightened so that her party, which six years ago won 80 % of the votes in the elections, was unable to hold its annual congress, and it is even being made increasingly difficult for foreign journalists to visit her.
På den anden side har Malaysias statschef endog hilst det velkomment, at man med Burmas optagelse optager endnu et ikke ligefrem demokratisk, men centralistisk regeret land.
On the other hand, the Malaysian Head of State even welcomed the fact that the accession of Burma meant the addition of another centrally, albeit not entirely democratically, governed State.
Jeg vil gerne spørge Kommissionen, om den ser veje og muligheder for at gennemføre de foranstaltninger, der er omtalt i punkt 4 i beslutningen, og om den også håber at have succes med det.
I should like to ask the Commission whether they see any means of enforcing the measures referred to in point 4 of the resolution and whether they are hopeful of success in such an endeavour.
Vi må fordømme disse drab og opfordre Colombias regering til at fange og straffe morderne.
But is it not time to follow the United States' lead and ban investment?
Vi glæder os over, at FN's Menneskerettighedskommissariat har oprettet et permanent kontor, og over ECHOs bidrag til de befolkningsgrupper, der er blevet tvunget på flugt.
There is a risk that the gap left by the reduction in investment from the US will be filled by European companies, which would be extremely regrettable. I would like to ask the Commissioner whether he will put this proposal to the European Council.
Telkåmper (V). - (DE) Hr. formand, vi har i de seneste to år meget ofte talt om Burma, og vi kan egentlig kun gentage os selv med beklagelse og anklage over for den burmesiske regering.
Telkämper (V). - (DE) Mr President, we have spoken very frequently about Burma over the past two years, and all we can really do each time is to repeat our expressions of regret and the charges against the Burmese Govern ment.
Det forholder sig fortsat således, at elementære rettigheder ikke overholdes, at hundreder af modstandere fra den demokratiske opposition, fra Den Nationale Liga for Demokrati, NDL, sidder i fængslerne.
It is still the case that elementary rights are not respected, that hundreds of supporters of the democratic opposition, the National League for Democracy (NLD), are in prison.
Netop for nylig døde et fremtrædende medlem af NDL, den 67-årige Tin Shwe.
Only recently a prominent member of the NLD, 67-year-old Tin Shwe, died in prison.
Han havde siddet i fængsel i syv år.
He had been held in custody for seven years.
Han havde en hjertelidelse og måtte nu dø i fængslet. Den officielle begrundelse for hans fængsling var statsfjendtlig propaganda.
He had a heart condition, and it was in this way, as a prisoner, that he had to end his days.
Vi bør imidlertid huske på, at Den Europæiske Union spillede en central rolle ved genoprettelsen af freden i Centralamerika, og at man samarbejder med hele Latinamerika i et forsøg på at skabe bedre forhold og en bedre udvikling.
In this case subversive propaganda means communicating information from within the country about the dreadful conditions that prevail there.
Samtidig med at vi fordømmer volden i Colom bia, bør vi nøje undersøge, om vi kan medvirke til at standse volden og skabe fred i området, skønt det bliver meget vanskeligt.
Hundreds of people are still in prison, and I believe that economic measures, the pressure that would be exerted if no money from the European Union were invested there, if Europe did not support the regime in any way, could secure these people's release from prison.
Det er den eneste måde, hvorpå vi i det lange løb kan være tilfredse med vor indsats over for denne rystende rædsel.
We also demand, as we have been demanding for quite some time, that Mrs Aung San Sun Kyi, the holder of the Sakharov Prize of the European Parliament, be allowed to move about freely.
For nylig har regeringen i Colombia bekræftet NGP's legitime rolle, men den gør kun lidt for at leve op hertil.
In my opinion, it is no longer feasible for the European Parliament to keep up this unilateral protest.
Den colombianske regering må i det mindste gennemføre denne politiske tilkendegivelse i praksis.
Can we not appoint a special envoy as we did for the Middle East and the Great Lakes, to act as a mediator for us in ASEAN and the surrounding region?
Åbningen af kontoret for De Forenede
I should like to hear what the Commissioner thinks about this.
Der er stadig i hundredvis, der sidder i fængsel, og jeg mener, at det kun gennem økonomiske foranstaltninger, gennem den påvirkning, man kan udøve, ved at Den Europæiske Union ikke investerer dér, ved at der her ikke finder nogen støtte af styret sted, er muligt at få disse mennesker ud af fængslerne.
It is always difficult to pass judgement on other States, but we can scarcely welcome the fact that the countries of ASEAN have admitted Burma into their organization under these circumstances.
Ligeledes har vi i lang tid krævet, at fru Aung San Sun Kyi, modtageren af Europa-Parlamentets Sakharov-pris, kan bevæge sig frit.
I believe we should roundly condemn that and we should ensure that it remains on the
Messeselskabet i München ønsker at deltage i den næste messe i Rangoon. Fru Günther, Deres appel tager jeg alvorligt. Bayern er en CSU-delstat.
According to the OSCE, at least 90% of the Serbs returning to the region in recent months have been unable to reoccupy theh homes.
Min grønne borgmesterkollega Monatzeder har krævet dette, protesteret imod det, og jeg håber, at vi er enige i protesten og får messeselskabet i München til ikke at støtte styret på denne måde.
We must ensure that the actions of the European Union, and hence the Commission, are geared to urging the governments of both Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina to abide by this principle, perhaps even resorting to economic means of persuasion if necessary. sary.
Bertens (ELDR). - (NL) Jeg frygter, at denne særlige udsending vil blive grinet ud på samme måde som de eurotigre, som hun taler om, men i hvert fald har NLD for to måneder siden forsøgt at fejre, at de for syv år siden vandt valget med et gigantisk flertal.
Bertens (ELDR). - (NL) I am afraid that a special envoy would be laughed down just as much as the European tigers.
Den militære junta reagerede adækvat ved med det samme at sætte 300 aktivister bag lås og slå.
In any event, two months ago the NLD attempted to celebrate its overwhelming victory in the elections seven years before, and the military junta reacted with its usual restraint by immediately putting 300 activists behind bars.
Signalet fra ASEAN om at optage Burma som medlem er et slag i ansigtet på det internationale samfund og menneskerettighedernes såkaldte universalitet.
ASEAN's decision to allow Burma membership is a slap in the face for the international community and for the socalled universality of human rights.
Netop i det øjeblik, hvor præsident Clinton udsteder sanktioner mod Burma, reagerer ASEAN med at gøre det modsatte.
Just when President Clinton announces sanctions against Burma, ASEAN does the complete opposite.
Jeg må naturligvis give fra Van Bladel ret i, at det ikke i første instans drejer sig om de europæiske investorer, men snarere om de asiatiske tigre.
And I have to agree with Mrs van Bladel that the new investors are mostly not European firms but^Asian tigers.
Unionen gør allerede noget, og jeg må sige, at det er jeg ikke utilfreds med. Men det må da overbevise ASEAN om, at den må ændre sin politik over for Burma.
The Union is aheady taking action, and I must admit that it is quite good as far as it goes.
Der er mange spørgsmål forbundet med, hvad der er den mest effektive måde at sætte SLORC-regimet under pres på.
But we need to persuade ASEAN to change its policy towards Burma.
Jeg håber, at i hvert fald det, som vi her lader høre, enten vi nu bliver grinet ud eller ej, ind imellem trænger igennem til i hvert fald Aung San Suu Kyi, så det viser, at solidaritet for os er det vigtigste.
How we can most effectively bring pressure to bear on the SLORC regime remains to be seen, but I hope that what we say here, whether we are laughed at or not, sometimes gets through at least to Aung San Suu Kyi, so that she knows that we are still determined to show solidarity with her.
Moorhouse (PPE). - (EN) Hr formand, skønt jeg respekterer fru van Bladel, mener jeg ikke, at vi bør ændre vores fremgangsmåde væsentligt.
Hory (ARE). - (FR) Mr President, I should like to say that today's debate is a strange and frankly paradoxical one.
Der findes sådanne ting som ære og et dybt engagement i menneskerettigheder. Det går videre end taktik og nærmer sig strategi.
The initial idea of the political groups was to condemn the Croatian Government, firmly, over its violations of human rights in Krajina and Slavonia.
Maij-Weggen (PPE). - (NL) Hr. formand, til trods for protester fra hele verden har ASEAN altså besluttet at optage Burma i sine rækker, og det til trods for de fortsatte krænkelser af menneskerettighederne og til trods for den fortsatte gidseltagning af den valgte premierminister, Aung San Suu Kyi, alt sammen foretaget af et militært diktatur.
Moorhouse (PPE). - Mr President, much as I respect Mrs van Bladel, I really doubt whether we should change our approach radically.
Penge og varer er øjensynlig vigtigere end fundamentale værdier og normer.
It goes beyond tactics and on to strategy.
Overtrædelsen af menneskerettighederne og undermineringen af demokratiet i Burma fortsætter imidlertid uanfægtet. I maj blev reglerne for fra Aung San Suu Kyis husarrest skærpet på en måde, så det ikke var muligt at gennemføre kongressen i hendes parti, som for seks år siden vandt valget med 80 % af stemmerne - og besøg af udenlandske journalister bliver gjort stadig vanskeligere.
Curiously, because of the way in which the European Parliament is influenced - several of whose members have been leading a real cmsade against Yugoslavia and its political authorities - the common resolution has led to a priority condemnation of the Serbian Government, which is not at all concerned by the question of returning refugees to the republics previously struck by the war.
Jeg glæder mig derfor meget over, at den amerikanske præsident har indført økonomiske sanktioner mod Burma, der forbyder amerikanske statsborgere at foretage nye investeringer i dette land. Det hár bestemt en effekt.
I therefore welcome very much the action of the American President who has imposed economic sanctions on Burma, thereby prohibiting US persons from making new invest ment in Burma.
Jeg er personligt ikke imod økonomiske sanktioner, skønt jeg ved, at det er meget vanskeligt at sælge en sådan politik i Den Europæiske Union.
I myself am not against taking economic sanctions, though I reaüze that this is a policy which is very difficult to sell within the European Union. '
Jeg går ind for at presse europæiske virksomheder til at afvikle deres investeringer eller undlade at investere i Burma.
I am in favour of bringing pressure to bear on European firms to disinvest or not to invest.
En række virksomheder har gjort den nødvendige indsats: f.eks. Heineken i Nederlandene og Carlsberg.
There are a number of companies which have taken the appropriate action: Heineken, in the Netherlands, is one case; Carlsberg is another.
Jeg vil meget gerne se blandt andre Club Mediterrane følge trop.
I would very much like to see Club Mediterrane, among others, follow suit.
Det er egentlig en sørgelig sag. Jeg vil spørge kommissæren, om han ikke vil stille forslag herom i Ministerrådet.
Implementation of Dayton Accords in Croatia
Gennemførelse af Dayton-aftalerne i Kroatien
Daskalaki (PPE). - (EL) Mr President, it has been said in this Chamber on many occasions that the European Union showed itself incapable of playing a role of any great importance in the crisis in the former Yugoslavia.
Van Bladel (UPE). - (NL) Hr. formand, europæiske parlamentarikere har nu i mere end to år hamret på generalernes dør i Rangoon.
Cars (ELDR). - (SV) Mr President, none of the States of the former Yugoslavia seem to have understood the necessity of keeping to agreements, including the Dayton Agreement, and respecting human rights.
Det europæiske erhveivsliv har stort set trukket sig ud.
Croatia is no worse then the other States of the former Yugoslavia, but makes greater claims for being accepted as a cooperation partner of the European Union.
Tværtimod, den asiatiske region slutter rækkerne og om favner Burma i ASEAN-gruppen.
Mr President, this behaviour must stop along with similar excesses in Serbia and Bosnia.
Er det så ikke et signal til os om at tage vor uproduktive fremfærd op til fornyet bedømmelse?
The European Parliament has passed a whole series of resolutions and made its positions clear.
De asiatiske tigre, de sidder og griner ad al den brølen fra de europæiske tigre i deres eget bur her.
The European Union has a duty to demand respect for human right's and for agreements concluded.
Cars (ELDR). - (SV) Hr. formand, at overholde indgåede aftaler, herunder Dayton-aftalen, og respektere menneske rettighederne er åbenbart noget, som ingen af staterne i ex-Jugoslavien har forstået nødvendigheden af.
In a region which has experienced the first full-scale conflict in Europe since the Second World War, and in which the dead are still being counted and the tensions still exist, nothing has really changed.
Kroatien er ikke værre end de øvrige stater i ex-Jugoslavien, men gør i højere grad krav på at være en accepteret samarbejdspartner for Den Europæiske Union.
The European Union will be able to intervene with credibility only when it acknowledges that it bears a major portion of the blame, firstly because of its great haste in promoting and extolling the break-up of the former Yugoslavia and, secondly,
Men det er Kroatien ikke, og bliver det heller ikke, så længe den kroatiske regering beskytter mistænkte krigsforbrydere og fortsætter med at tillade, at etniske serbere chikaneres, udsættes for overgreb og nægtes ret til at vende tilbage til deres hjem.
Tamino (V). - (IT) Mr President, it is clear to everyone, I think, that the Dayton Agreement will not be implemented unless all the countries concerned comply with its provisions.
Der må, hr. formand, sættes en stopper for dette ligesom for andre lignende overgreb i Serbien og Bosnien.
We are only too aware of the limitations of this agreement, but if the terms to which all the signatories put theh names are not respected, it is quite clear that the situation could become inflamed once again.
Det er Den Europæiske Unions pligt at kræve, at menneskerettighederne og indgåede aftaler respekteres.
Daskalaki because of its delay in acting after the conflagration had started.
Europa-Parlamentet har vedtaget det ene beslutningsforslag efter det andet og har markeret sin holdning.
ated. However, things are much worse in parts of Bosnia-Herzegovina, where people's lives are actually in danger because of the rabble who are in power.
Det er også det, vi forsøger at gøre denne gang med de bemærkninger, hr. Hory kom med, som er stærke udtalelser, uden at det dog er sikkert, at vor, tilsyneladende, enstemmige beslutning vil udrette noget.
I have met people there who are supposed to be acting mayors but who do nothing to deserve the title.
Tamino (V). - (LT) Hr. formand, jeg finder det klart, at alle Dayton-aftalerne kun kan gennemføres, dersom samt lige de involverede lande reelt iværksætter indholdet af disse aftaler.
We are now asking for something which is self-evidently right and in accord with our understanding of justice.
Den Europæiske Union vil kun kunne gribe ind, hvis den erkender, at den også har en vigtig del i ansvaret både for det tidspunkt, hvor den havde alt for travlt med at fremme og opmuntre til opløsningen af det tidligere Jugoslavien, og for det tids punkt, da den kom alt for sent, hvor det hele allerede stod i brand.
Mr President, despite all of the observations that are made and the historical reservations that have been expressed, our group supports the joint resolution and will vote for it.
Vi må derfor henlede opmærksomheden på, at de 200.000 serbere, der boede i Krajina, nu næsten alle er fordrevet, og at det ved en midlertidig lov vedtaget af det kroatiske parlament og den kroatiske regering nu er blevet tilladt kroatere fra andre dele af landet at bemægtige sig også serbiske ejendomme, dersom den retmæssige ejer er fra værende.
The PPE Group would like to propose the setting-up of a central office in Bosnia with powers to deal with the refugees, since it is such a complex issue and so closely tied up with the return of refugees to Croatia and Slavonia that some kind of joint clearing-house is needed to organize the whole thing, otherwise there will be chaos.
Det, vi nu søger gennemført, er fornuftigt og forståeligt og helt i vor ånd.
While it continues to be organized separately, and on an entity basis in Bosnia-Herzegovina, there is no chance of a return taking place successfully.
