Jeg er dog tilfreds med kompromisteksten. Jeg er tilfreds, fordi det er en konkret sag, som er overskuelig, selvom det er et stort problem, og fordi det giver kommissæren og hans folk mulighed for at gøre noget ved det sammen med myndighederne i Guatemala.
However, I am happy enough with the compromise text, because this is a specific issue of which we have a fairly clear picture, no matter how great the scale of the problem, and the Commissioner and his officials can now try to do something about it through their contacts with the Guatemalan government.
Det er klart, at den organisation, som vi nævner, Casa Alianza, og dens leder har lagt sagen på bordet og derfor bliver truet.
The organisation that we mention, Casa Alianza, and its leader have revealed what is going on and are now themselves under threat.
Organisationen og dens folk, og ikke mindst Bruce Harris, fortjener støtte fra Europa.
The organisation and its workers, particularly Bruce Harris, deserve Europe's support.
Jeg beklager også, at UNICEF-rapporten ikke nævnes. Jeg tilføjer, hr. formand, at jeg endvidere beklager — og jeg er bange for, at Den Liberale Gruppe har bidraget hertil — at der ikke er nævnt noget af det, der stod i min oprindelige tekst, nemlig at det er nødvendigt med en dna-undersøgelse.
I too regret that the UNICEF report is not mentioned, and I would add that I am also sorry — I think the liberals had something to do with this — that the resolution does not mention what I said in my original text about the need for DNA testing.
England kræver allerede, at forældre, der adopterer, kan vise, at det var de lovmæssige forældre, der afstod barnet.
The United Kingdom already requires adoptive parents to prove that it was the child's legal parents who gave it up for adoption.
For i øjeblikket lejes falske mødre og andre fattige kvinder til at gå til en ambassade og sige: Jeg afstår mit barn. De får betaling for det.
At the moment bogus mothers and other poor women are being paid to go to an embassy and say that they want to give their child up.
Men andre mødre mister derved deres børn.
Other mothers hand their children over themselves.
En dna-undersøgelse, som i England, beviser, at det er barnets forældre, der har afstået det.
A DNA test such as the one the UK requires clearly shows whether it is the child's real parents that are giving it up.
Jeg slår altså til lyd for en dna-undersøgelse i europæisk sammenhæng.
I -would therefore call for this DNA test to become a Europe-wide requirement.
Kreissl-Dörfler (V). — (DE) Hr. formand, handel med børn er en god forretning i Guatemala.
Kreissl-Dörfler (V). — (DE) Mr President, trafficking in children in Guatemala is a lucrative business.
En decideret mafia bortfører børn, overtaler fattige mødre til at afgive dem, forfalsker fødselsattester og sælger børnene til udlandet.
A veritable Mafia kidnaps children, persuades poverty-stricken women to hand over their children, forges birth certificates and sells the children abroad.
Det er nok med en notar til at bekræfte en adoption.
Even a notary public has the power to authorise adoptions.
Priser på mellem USD 15.000 og 20.000 for et barn er ikke noget særsyn.
Prices of 15 000 to 20 000 dollars per child are not unusual.
I henhold til Guatemalas lovgivning er handel med børn ikke nogen forbrydelse, det er ikke strafbart.
Under the Guatemalan penal code, trafficking in children is not a crime and does not carry a penalty.
Alle landene i regionen har i de seneste år ændret deres love for at sætte en stopper for dette menneskeforagtende misbrug, kun Guatemala har endnu ikke gjort det.
All the countries in the region have amended their laws in recent years in order to eliminate this inhuman and exploitative practice, but Guatemala has not yet taken that step.
Det er nu på høje tid.
It is now high time it did.
Guatemala må også omgående ratificere Haag-konventionen om adoption og leve op til sine forpligtelser i henhold til FN's børnekonvention ved at indføre en børne- og ungdomskodeks.
Guatemala must also proceed without delay to ratify the Hague Convention on Inter-Country Adoption and must meet its obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child by promulgating its Juvenile and Adolescent Code.
Adoptioner er nu og da den sidste redningsplanke. I så fald bør barnet så vidt muligt forblive tæt på sin oprindelse, kulturelt og geografisk.
Adoptions are sometimes a valid last resort, but the child should remain as close as possible to its cultural and geographical roots.
Adoptioner er under ingen omstændigheder et bidrag til udviklingshjælp. Udviklingshjælp betyder nemlig, at der skabes forudsætninger for, at børnene kan vokse op i deres eget land.
Adoptions, however, can never be a contribution to development aid, because development aid means creating the conditions in which children can grow up in their own countries.
Det vil jeg dog bede om, at man husker.
I urge everyone to bear that in mind.
Leperre-Verrier (ARE). — (FR) Hr. formand, endnu en gang ender vi med at skulle gribe ind i børns skæbner ude i verden.
Leperre-Verrier (ARE). — (FR) Mr President, once again we have cause to speak on the fate of children in the world.
Det drejer sig i dag'om adoption af guatemalanske børn.
Today we are discussing the adoption of Guatemalan children.
Der er ingenlunde tale om, at vi fordømmer adoptioner på internationalt plan, men om at vi sætter spørgsmålstegn ved de vilkår, under hvilke de finder sted.
There is certainly no question of condemning inter national adoptions, but of considering the conditions in which they are carried out.
I så henseende er Guatemala blevet skueplads for en veritabel handel med spædbørn. Man anslår således, at der i 1997 var mere end 2.000 børn, der blev solgt til en pris på mellem UDS 15.000 og 20.000.
In this respect, Guatemala has become a real baby-trafficking location, so that in 1997 it was estimated that more than two thousand children were sold at a price of 15 000 to 20 000 dollars.
Der skal ikke megen fantasi til at forestille sig, hvor nemt en så lukrativ virksomhed kan føre til en skandaløs praksis hos lyssky forhandlere, der ikke viger tilbage for noget for at beskytte deres tvivlsomme gesjæft.
It is not difficult to imagine how such a lucrative activity could give rise to abominable practices on the part of the traffickers, who will stop at nothing to protect their dubious trade.
De tøver således ikke med at intimidere, eller endog true, dem, der forsøger at gøre disse adoptioner moralsk uangribelige.
They will therefore not hesitate to intimidate or even threaten those who seek to reform these adoption procedures.
Medlemsstaterne bør derfor sørge for, at lovens bestemmelser overholdes, når der er tale om international adoption, specielt når det drejer sig om børn fra Guatemala.
The Member States therefore need to ensure that legal provisions on international adoption are applied, especially with regard to children from Guatemala.
Men vi må også, og især, tilkskynde den guatemalanske regering til at være mere striks i forvaltningen af disse sager, så meget mere som orkanen Mitch netop har øget antallet af børn til bortadoption, og det giver grund til at være endnu mere på vagt.
However, above all, we must also encourage the Guatemalan Government to be more strict in dealing with this matter, especially given that hurricane Mitch has recently increased the number of children available for adoption, which means that we should be even more vigilant.
Jeg mener også, at Den Europæiske Union bør gøre sin indflydelse gældende over for Guatemalas regering for at forhindre denne handel, og jeg tror, at en mulighed er at hjælpe Guatemalas rigsadvokatur, som tilsyneladende står inde for disse adoptioners lovlighed.
I believe that the European Union must bring pressure to bear on the Guatemalan Government to prevent this trafficking, and one way of doing this is to help the Guatemalan Attorney General's Office, which is responsible for ensuring that the adoption procedures comply with legal provisions.
Vi er absolut ikke imod legale adoptioner.
We are in no way opposed to legal adoptions.
Vi mener, at de redder mange børn fra en usikker og frygtelig skæbne i nogle lande, med jeg er enig i, hvad en kollega sagde, nemlig at hvis der var bedre leveforhold i disse lande, ville det bedste være, at børnene blev i deres eget land.
We believe that they save many children from an uncertain and terrible fate in some countries. However, I agree with what a previous speaker said that if there were better living conditions in those countries, it would be better for the children to stay in their own country.
Under alle omstændigheder må der sættes en stopper for denne skrækkelige handel med børn, som er den mest afskyelige afalle former for handel.
In any case, we must prevent the terrible trafficking of children, which is the most despicable form of all trafficking.
Imidlertid er det et faktum, at problemets kerne ofte skal søges i de udviklede lande, hvor der er opbygget nogle velstrukturerede handelsnet med stor erfaring, både hvad angår handel med børn og med kvinder og menneskelige organer.
However, what is certain is that the root of the problem can often be found in the developed world, where there are well-structured and experienced trafficking networks that are involved in the trafficking of children, women and human organs.
Hr. formand, jeg mener, at Parlamentets beslutninger altid bør ledsages af objektivitet og stringens, især når de vedrører venskabslande som Guatemala, et land som Parlamentet ved gentagne lejligheder har udtrykt sin anerkendelse af på grund af de fremskridt, som præsident Arzus regering har nået med konsolidering af fredsprocessen, demokratiseringen af Guatemala og konsolideringen af retsstaten.
I believe that Parliament's resolutions must always be objective and rigorous, particularly when they relate to friendly countries such as Guatemala. Parliament has frequently recognised the progress achieved by President Arzú's government in consolidating the peace process, in bringing democracy to Guatemala and in consolidating the rule of law.
FN's mission i Guatemala har det udtrykkelige mandat at beskytte menneskerettighederne i dette land, og jeg synes, det er vigtigt at understrege, at Guatemala deltager i FN's menneskerettighedskommission.
The United Nations mission in Guatemala has the express task of ensuring respect for human rights there, and I believe it is important to highlight the fact that Guatemala forms part of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights.
Hr. formand, jeg synes, det er rimeligt at anerkende — og jeg glæder mig over, at den ansvarlige kommissær, hr. Marin, i dag er til stede — at Europa-Kommissionen har reageret hurtigt og effektivt over for de ødelæggende virkninger af denne orkan, og vi håber, at den hurtigt kan foreslå en genopbygningsplan for regionen i henhold til det, som kommissæren har meddelt.
I am pleased that the Commissioner responsible, Mr Marin, is here this afternoon, and it is only fair that we recognise that, faced with the devastating effects of the hurricane, the European Commission has reacted quickly and effectively. We hope that it will soon be able to propose a rehabilitation plan for the region in accordance with the Commissioner's statement.
Derfor vil jeg endnu en gang gentage, hvor nødvendigt det er at styrke samarbejdet med Guatemala og med hele Mellemamerika og især, hr. formand, at styrke aktioner, der har til formål at lindre befolkningens og især børnenes lidelser.
I therefore want to emphasise once again the need to strengthen cooperation with Guatemala and with all of · Central America, and, more importantly, to step up our actions to relieve the suffering of the people and especially that of the children.
Amadeo (NI). — (LT) Hr. formand, de internationale adoptioner fra Guatemala blev i 1997 fordoblet. Der var faktisk over 2.000 adoptioner, hvis omkostninger i gennemsnit lå på USD 15-20.000.
Amadeo (NI). — (LT) Mr President, international adoptions doubled in Guatemala in 1997: over 2 000 at an average cost of USD 15 0-20 000.
Det, der undrer os mest, er, at Guatemalas straffelov ikke betragter handlen med børn som en forbrydelse, og at selve tyveriet af børn kun giver en dom på ca. et år, med mulighed for at få udsat straffen.
The most striking thing is that trafficking in children is not classified as a crime under the Guatemalan penal code and even the abduction of children merely carries a sentence of about a year, and that may be suspended.
Vi mener i øvrigt, at det er umuligt at straffe de internationale adoptioner, for hvis disse adoptioner sker med korrekte procedurer og med garantier for barnet, vil de næsten altid give barnet mulighed for at få nogle bedre leve forhold.
Furthermore, we do not believe international adoption can be penalised because these adoptions, if carried out through the correct channels and with guarantees for the child, almost always offer the chance of a better standard of living.
Samtidig kan vi ikke nægte, at de internationale adoptioner er en vigtig form for internationalt samarbejde.
Nor can we deny that international adoption constitutes an important form of international cooperation.
Da vi er meget bekymrede over en anden oplysning, nemlig at dem, der i Guatemala arbejder for at hindre ulovlig . handel med børn, er udsat for trusler og terror, vil vi gerne kraftigt anmode Kommissionen og medlemsstaterne om at opfordre Guatemalas regering til at sørge for, at adoptionsprocesserne sker med de nødvendige lovmæssige garantier, såvel nationale som internationale garantier, og for at de garanterer sikkerheden for de ansatte i retsvæsenet, der tager sig af den ulovlige handel.
In expressing serious concern about information reaching us that people working in Guatemala to prevent illegal trafficking in children are being subjected to threats and intimidation, we look to the Commission and the Member States to urge the Guatemalan Government to ensure that adoption procedures are carried out with the proper legal guarantees — national and international —and that the law officers combatting illegal trafficking are protected.
Bertens (ELDR). — (NL) Hr. formand, de sidste 30 år af Colombias historie er et trist kapitel. Titusinder er døde, en utrolig høj arbejdsløshed og en alt for beskeden økonomisk vækst i forhold til de muligheder, som landet har.
Bertens (ELDR). — (NL) Mr President, the past 30 years have indeed been dark ones for Colombia, with tens of thousands of people killed, rocketing unemployment and low levels of economic growth that do not reflect the country's potential.
Narkohandlere tjener tonsvis af penge, for 80% af den narkotika, som sælges i USA, kommer fra Colombia.
The drugs barons, on the other hand, are earning a fortune: 80% of the drugs sold in the US come from Colombia.
Præsident Pastrana har givet os nyt håb og fredsforhandlingerne nye impulser.
President Pastrana has given us renewed hope and has injected fresh impetus into the peace talks.
Desværre, må det siges, at FARC-lede-rens fravær i sidste øjeblik var en skuffelse.
The last-minute decision of the leader of the FARC not to attend was extremely disappointing.
Unionen skal stimulere fredsprocessen og yde sit bidrag.
The Union must, of course, encourage the peace process and make its own contribution to it.
Alle ved, at stabilitet og fred er vigtige for at give økonomien en ny impuls.
Stability and peace, as everyone knows, are vital to give the economy a fresh boost.
Jeg hjælper alle med at håbe, og jeg håber at kunne tænde mange lys for en hvilken som helst Maria.
I hope that all our good intentions will bring results here.
Jeg har et spørgsmål til kommissæren' inden for rammen af fredsprocessen.
I would like to ask the Commissioner a question about the peace process.
I Comunidades de Paz, en organisation af landsbyer, som blev bygget for et år siden i den nordlige del af Colombia ved Apartado og Río Sucio, er der nogle ECHO-pro-jekter i gang. Jeg var der for en måned siden.
A number of ECHO projects are running in the Comunidades de Paz, an organisation of villages that were built a year ago at Apartado and Rio Sucio in the north of Colombia.
Befolkningen fortalte mig, at det var blevet lovet dem for otte måneder siden, men pengene er åbenbart blevet liggende i Bogota. Bogota er muy, muy, muy, lejos de aquí.
People there told me that this had been promised eight months ago, but the money had obviously got no further than Bogota. Bogota is muy, muy, muy, lejos de aqui.
Jeg ved, at De ikke kan give et direkte svar, men måske kan De tage spørgsmålet med, og så henvender jeg mig til Dem personligt på et senere tidspunkt.
I know that you cannot give me an answer straight away, but perhaps you could think about this, and I will contact you about it later.
Miranda de Lage (PSE). — (ES) Hr. formand, jeg vil gerne begynde med at ønske præsident Pastrana hjerteligt tillykke med det arbejde, han udfører for freden i sit land, for med dialogerne i San Vicente åbnes der nogle virkelige perspektiver, og borgernes krav om fred, som det blev udtrykt af 10 millioner borgere ved stemmeurnerne, opfyldes. des.
Miranda de Lage (PSE). — (ES) Mr President, I would like to begin by congratulating President Pastrana very sincerely on the work he is doing to promote peace in his country. The dialogue held in San Vicente has given rise to real expectations and fulfills the mandate for peace which 10 million people voted for.
Men man må også sige, at de væbnede colombianske revolutionsstyrker (FARC) har forstået det historiske øjeblik og har accepteret udfordringen om at deltage i opbygningen af dette nye område på baggrund af dialog.
However, we must also point out that the FARC has understood the historic importance of the occasion and accepted the challenge to participate in the construction of this new area through dialogue. We must recognise this,
Dette må fremhæves og anerkendes, ligesom detjnå anerkendes, at nogle af punkterne på præsident Pastranas dagsorden er sammenfaldende med guerillaens forslag.
Miranda de Lage just as we must recognise that there are similarities between President Pastrana's agenda and the guerrillas' · proposals.
Efter gårsdagens møde begynder vejen mod fred at træde tydeligere frem.
After yesterday's meeting, the paths towards peace can be seen much more clearly.
Freden har dog meget magtfulde fjender.
Nonetheless, peace has very powerful enemies.
Ved denne lejlighed må man også fordømme paramilitarismen og kriminaliteten.
In this case, we must condemn the paramilitary activities and crimes that are taking place.
Over 100 personer er blevet myrdet med det ene formål at forhindre freden. Dette er et frontalt angreb på hele samfundet.
More than 100 people have been killed with the sole aim of obstructing peace.
Borgerne har krævet, at vejen mod fred følges, og man kan ikke sidde folkets stemme overhørig eller brolægge vejen med ofre.
The paths to peace are those expressed in the mandate from the people. Their voice cannot be ignored, nor can the victims.
Regeringen har ansvaret for at udbrede og styrke retsstaten og beskytte dem, der kæmper for værdigheden og de demokratiske principper.
The government is responsible for extending and strengthening the rule of law and for protecting those who are fighting for dignity and democratic principles.
Men vi kan også anmode om noget, og jeg vil anmode om tre ting.
However, we can also make certain requests, and I have some of my own.
Det første vil jeg anmode guerillaen om, nemlig at den frigiver alle civile gidsler. Jeg må også takke guerillaen for, at den har frigivet den europæiske statsborger Camila Villanueva.
The first is to ask the guerrillas to free all civilian hostages, and here I would like to thank them for having freed the European development assistant Camino Villanueva.
Og hvis det er muligt, vil jeg spørge Kommissionen om, hvordan Den Europæiske Union kan deltage i opbygningen af disse områder med fred.
1 would also like to ask the Commission, if possible, to explain how the European Union would be involved in the construction of these areas of peace.
For der er håb i Europa, og jeg tror, at vi også kan give et svar.
There is hope in Europe and I believe that we here can also provide a response.
Kreissl-Dörfler (V). — (DE) Hr. formand, fred uden menneskerettigheder findes ikke.
Kreissl-Dörfler (V). — (DE) Mr President, there can be no peace without human rights.
Det så vi igen og igen på vores delegationsrejse til Columbia i december.
We hád numerous first-hand experiences of that when our delegation visited Colombia in December.
Det har de langt over 100 mord begået af paramilitære bander netop. på grusomste vis igen gjort klart.
The murders — well over a hundred in number — committed by the paramilitaries have been another horrific reminder of the truth of that proposition.
De paramilitære bander er ingen forhandlingspartner i fredsforhandlinger.
The paramilitaries are not parties to peace talks.
De paramilitære er kriminelle bander, som straks må opløses.
The paramilitaries are criminal gangs that must be dissolved immediately.
Deres medlemmer og deres økonomiske bagmænd skal stilles for retten, og alle deres hjælpere i staten og hos sikkerhedsstyrkerne må afskediges omgående.
Their members and their paymasters must be brought to justice, and all their helpers in the administration and the armed forces must be summarily dismissed.
For først når retten til livet er garanteret i Columbia, er der håb om en virkelig fred.
Not until the right to life is guaranteed in Colombia will there be hope of real peace.
Det betyder, at krigens parter omgående må respektere menneskerettighederne.
This means that the warring factions must immediately start to apply the fundamental principles of humanitarianism.
På statens side betyder det beskyttelse af ofrene, herunder over en million
It means that the government must act to protect the victims of the conflict, including more than a million refugees, many of whom are blacks and Indios.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
No more impunity for lawbreakers!
Slut på straffriheden, reform af retsvæsenet, især militærdomstolene!
Reform the administration of justice, particularly the system of military jurisdiction.
Der skal indledes en landbrugsreform, og der skal skabes økonomisk og social retfærdighed.
Agrarian reform has to be implemented, and economic and social justice must be established.
Her er der også bud efter Den Europæiske Union.
This is a task for the European Union too.
Her skal der ydes hjælp, i stedet for at profilere sig i eksportvæddeløb.
We should be helping here, instead of competing for pole position in the export markets.
Vi må betale retfærdige priser og sørge for udvikling af reigonerne. Freden findes nemlig for enden af denne proces, ikke ved dens begyndelse!
We must pay fair prices and promote regional development, because peace is the reward for completing this process, not the prerequisite for launching it.
Lenz (PPE). — (DE) Hr. formand, jeg kan i og for sig kun tilslutte mig den forrige talers indlæg.
Lenz (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, I can only agree with the words of the previous speakers.
Vi må spørge os selv, hvornår denne karussel af vold, mord, bortførelser og gidseltagninger i dette land endelig hører op, hvornår de politiske kræfter og de ansvarlige demokrater endelig vil være stærke nok til at lade våbnene tie og besejre korruption og narkohandel.
We do have to ask when this circle of violence, murder, kidnapping and hostage-taking will finally end, when the political authorities and the responsible democrats will finally be strong enough to silence the guns and stamp out corruption and drug trafficking.
Regeringen Pastrana begynder — og det lykønsker vi den med — med en ny regerings styrke nu at forhandle med den stærkeste part i konflikten, med alle de vanskeligheder, som det indebærer.
The Pastrana government — and we congratulate them on this — are using the strength inherent in a new government to open negotiations with the strongest of the warring factions, with all thé difficulties this involves.
