Litvana understregede, at formålet med BAJ's arbejde er at sikre objektive og ucensurerede oplysninger til det belarussiske folk.
Now and in the future, the challenge is very much the relationship between Europe and Islam.
Hun sagde, at de belarussiske myndigheder har skabt et lukket samfund, der bygger på isolation og foragt for demokratiske værdier - et samfund, hvor samtlige elektroniske medier er monopoliserede af myndighederne og hvor alle andre medier bringes i miskredit og kritiske journalister retsforfølges og straffes.
Europe must, on the one hand, contain Islamic fundamentalism using all the means available and, on the other hand, it must build bridges and dialogue with those representing moderate Islam.
Litvina under stregede, at modtagelsen af Sakharov-prisen og støtte fra det internationale samfund er afgørende for den fortsatte kamp for tankeog ytringsfrihed i Belarus og fastlog, at totalitarisme kun kan bekæmpes med et åbent informationssamfund, der stimulerer en fri debat.
If, after long and difficult negotiations, we achieve a situation where the rule of law genuinely prevails in Turkey, and where European democracy meets a predominantly Muslim population, then such a Turkey would certainly be an asset for Europe and a very important crossroads of civilisations.

Structural funding In accordance with the conciliation agreement, the Parliament has not restored amendments aimed at increasing payment appropriations under this heading.
EP vedtog et fælles beslutningsforslag om situationen i det østlige Congo, hvor der på ny er optræk til krig med Rwanda. Tropper fra Rwanda invaderede for nylig det østlige Congo, og EP fordømmer denne ensidige militæraktion, der kan få alvorlige følger for fredsprocessen og stabiliteten i området.
Despite this, in the light of the utilisation level of these funds in 2004, MEPs insist that new payment appropriations should be made available, if required, through an amending budget during the 2005 budget year.

The Commission proposes to continue the support to the stabilisation and reconstruction process in Iraq initiated in 2003 and 2004 as one of its key external responsibility priorities in 2005.
EP insisterer derfor på, at enhver form for politisk indblanding i fordelingen af international fødevarehjælp øjeblikkeligt ophører for at undgå, at præsident Mugabes Zanu-PF-regering anvender fødevarer som politisk våben.
For that purpose, an amount of €200m is set aside in the 2005 budget, of which €190m to be implemented under "Aid for rehabilitation and reconstruction of Iraq" and €10m under "Development and consolidation of democracy and the rule of law - Respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms".

The total budget is €108m, €50m is allocated for 2005.
Ligeledes er EP bekymret over Mugaberegimets fortsatte undertrykkelse af den politiske opposition, herunder af parlamentsmedlemmet Roy Bennett, der siden sit valg til Parlamentet for fem år siden har været udsat for "en ondskabsfuld forfølgelseskampagne fra Mugaberegimets side" og nu sidder fængslet under rystende forhold i Mutoko.
Preaccession support The two institutions have agreed to include €120m for promoting the economic development of the Turkish Cypriot community.
EP kræver derfor, at Roy Bennett, "øjeblikkeligt løslades, og at enhver form for vold og trusler over for hans familie og ansatte ophører.
Financing for Croatia amounts to some €105m, reflecting the preaccession strategy for that country.
I december 1984 skete der en alvorlig ulykke på en amerikansk ejet pesticidfabrik i Bhopal, Indien, hvor mere end 35 tons giftgas slap ud og mere end 7000 mennesker døde. I de sidste tyve år er 15.000-30.000 mennesker døde af sygdomme relateret til ulykken.

Man peger på den positive signalværdi, som undertegnelsen af Kyoto-protokollen har for at fremme det langsigtede strategiske partnerskab mellem EU og Rusland. Man håber, at andre globale aktører - USA - tilskyndes til at følge Ruslands eksempel.
The programme benefits a wide range of sectors, areas, groups and communities which have been particularly affected by the conflict and encourages cross-community projects.

Tjetjenien EP er dybt bekymret over de russiske styrkers vedvarende, tilbagevendende og massive overtrædelse af humanitær folkeret og af menneskerettighederne over for civilbefolkningen i Tjetjenien.
Parliament believes that the central objectives of the 2004-09 European Commission should be: (i) to increase the competitiveness and dynamism of Europe's social-market economy, on the basis of sustainable development, (ii) to ensure the cohesion and consolidation of Europe, underpinned by the success of enlargement, (iii) to develop an area of freedom, security and justice, while protecting citizens' fundamental rights, (iv) to make Europe a stronger and more effective force in building a safer and more prosperous world, (v) to improve the quality of life of Europe's citizens, and (vi) to make Europe work better and bring it closer to the citizen.
Man opfordrer Rusland til at arbejde for en pålidelig fredsog forsoningsproces.
This was the message set out in a joint resolution adopted by 284 votes in favour, 154 votes against and 17 abstentions on the new Commission's political strategy.
Man understreger, at der med hensyn til Tjetjenien kun kan blive tale om en omfattende politisk løsning på grundlag af forhandlinger - og ikke en militær løsning.
The resolution was put forward by the EPP-ED, ALDE and UEN groups.
EP beklager, at EU-Rusland-topmødet ikke førte til betydelige fremskridt om oprettelse af 4 fælles områder:
A more competitive, more cohesive Europe

Finally, the flexibility instrument will also be used to the tune of €40m in order to find a solution to the financing of agencies, whose numbers have increased over recent years which causes certain difficulties in the financing of internal policies.
Europa-Parlamentet erkender, at Rusland har særlig interesse i at bevare gode forbindelser til mange af sine nabolande - fx. Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova og den sydlige Kaukasusregion.
MEPs reiterate their support for the EU's Lisbon strategy as the best way of achieving a competitive European economy, and maintains that sustainable economic development should be the guiding principle for future policy.
Man understreger imidlertid, at Rusland bør overholde princippet om ikke at blande sig i suveræne staters interne anliggender - navnlig i forbindelse med valg.

Thijs BERMAN (PSE, NL) fastlog, at aftalen om dyretransport er dårlig for dyrenes velfærd og for hele områdets image.
Parliament believes that the domestic and international fight against terrorism and organised crime - and the structures which sustain them - is critical to building a safer Europe for our citizens.
Marian HARKIN (ALDE, IE) sagde, at transport af levende dyr er en lovlig og meget vigtig ting for Irland, idet landet hvert år eksporterer ca. 200.000 levende kvæg til andre europæiske lande.
Parliament believes that Europe should pursue a stronger common approach to security and an effective, coordinated counter-terrorism policy.
Hun understregede derfor, at EU ikke bør indføre regler, der hindrer dette marked.
The House stresses the importance in this process of ensuring the right balance between the requirements of law enforcement and the protection of fundamental freedoms and personal data.
Dyretransporter: Kun små forbedringer af dyrevelfærden
A stronger Europe in a safer world
EP havde torsdag formiddag den 16. december en debat om dyretransport.
Award of Sakharov Prize 2004 to the Association of Journalists of Belarus 14.12.2004
Helmuth MARKOV (GUE/NGL, DE) sagde, at aftalen viser, at medlemsstaterne ikke har viljen til at sikre en bæredygtig udvikling i Europa, men at hovedformålet er at sikre masseprofit til store virksomheder på trods af dyrenes velfærd.
He recalled that this year, 50 journalists and 14 press assistants had been killed, and 200 journalists had been imprisoned. He also recalled the terrible situation of the two French journalists being held hostage for the last 100 days in Iraq.
På vegne af Kommissionen sagde den cypriotiske forbruger- og sundhedskommissær Markos KYPRIANOU, at Kommissionen havde ønsket strengere regler for dyretransport, men at det var umuligt for Rådet at nå til enighed herom. Kyprianou fastlog, at den nærværende aftale trods alt sikrer en forbedring af dyrevelfærden.
Believes that, in the interests of prosperity and peace, it is important that Europe uses the next five years to project stability among its neighbours, promote democracy, human rights and good governance around the world, extend international free trade, and encourage sustainable development.
Her under fremhævede kommissæren, at med lemsstaterne har frihed til at vedtage strengere regler end dem, der er fastsat i for ordningen og at der fra 2007 indføres krav til den temperatur, dyrene skal transporteres under, hvor ofte de skal have væske samt forbud mod at transportere syge eller gamle dyr.
Parliament believes that the promotion of regional stability and democracy is a distinctive value-added which the EU can offer to the international community, often with striking success.
Kyprianou understregede tillige, at Kommissionen fortsat nøje vil overvåge dyretransporter i medlemsstaterne.
MEPs believe that every effort should me made in this process to give more consistency and coherence to the external actions of the Union.
Fravær af offentlig debat Der var to danske indlæg i debatten.
A Europe that works better and is closer to the citizen
Auken var uforstående over for, hvorfor Kommissionen ikke over for Rådet har insisteret på indførelsen af strengere regler.
Mr Borrell pointed out that the recent elections in Belarus were not recognised by the international community.
Socialdemokraten Dan JØRGENSEN kritiserede den hast, hvormed forslaget var blevet gennemført og uden mulighed for en ordentlig offentlig debat.
"Fifteen years after thefall of the Berlin Wall, there are still reminisces of the past".
Jørgensen mente, at forslaget er et udtryk for, at man tænker for meget på det indre marked - uden at tage etiske hensyn.
Belarus, he stated, was the only country in Europe to use the death penalty.
Herunder fastlog Jørgensen, at dyr er levende væsner og ikke blot varer, og han undrede sig over, hvorvidt forslaget holder rent juridisk, idet EP ikke er blevet tilstrækkeligt involveret i processen.
The European Parliament "would raise its voice high in defence of freedom of expression in
Herunder sagde Albert Jan MAAT (PPE-DE, NL), at det var beklageligt at EP ikke var blevet hørt i sagen, men var enig med Kyprianou i, at forslaget trods alt sikrer en forbedring af dyrevelfærden.

The very fact that this year two Belarusian organisations were nominated for the Sakharov prize is a sign that Belarus is in the focus of international attention, that Belarus will become one of priorities for the European Union's New Neighbourhood programme, that European institutions are ready for bilateral cooperation with civil society in my country, and that Belarus, which one of my colleagues has compared to a chess figure fallen off a chess board, will once become an independent subject of international European politics and a potential member of the European Union.
EP vedtog en betænkning af Jean LAMBERT (Verts/ALE, UK) om asylprocedurer i EU.
In any civilised society the existence of opposition press is a sign of 'bon ton'.
Betænkningen blev vedtaget med 321 stemmer mod 246, medens 13 undlod at stemme.
In Belarus criticism of the head of the state or a state official can be easily interpreted as an attempt on his honour and dignity.
EP vedtog en betænkning af Carlos COELHO (PPE-DE, PT) om bekæmpelse af grænseoverskridende køretøjskriminalitet -det vil sige biltyverier.
Two years ago, Criminal Code articles were used for the first time in relation to journalists, Mikola Markevich, Favai Mazheika and Viktor Ivashkevich for slander and insult of the head of state.
Kommissionen har fremlagt to meddelelser om den fremtidige udvikling af EU's fælles asylpolitik.
The prize is a signal that we are not alone in upholding our professional principles and rights of our citizens to receive objective information.
EP er positive over for Kommissionens for slag, men understreger nødvendigheden af, at der fastlægges klare rammer for en fremtidig udvikling af den fælles asylpolitik.
The situation of freedom of expression usually deteriorates during political campaigns.
Herunder henviser EP bl.a. til, at man gentagne gange har understreget behovet for en asylprocedure af høj kvalitet, der er solidt forankret i Genève-konventionen og andre internationale instrumenter.
The Referendum and elections to the Parliament carried out this year in Belarus were no exception.
Ifølge Europol skyldes stigningen i antallet af tyverier i årene indtil 1993 primært afskaffelsen af kontrollen ved EU's indre grænser.
Mass-media should become the main mechanism of implementing state ideology, said the head of state early this year, fixing this decree in the charter of the Belarusian TV and Radio Company.
Holland har derfor fremsat et forslag til, hvordan man på EU-plan kan bekæmpe grænseoverskridende biltyverier.
On the eve of the Referendum, a court fined Elena Ravbetskaya, the editor of the newspaper, Birzha Informatsii, for distributing information offending the honour and dignity of the President.
Forslaget omfatter bl.a. styrkelse af samarbejdet mellem alle relevante aktører, øget efterforskning, tekniske præventive foranstaltninger samt samarbejde med tredjelande.
In her article Elena called the Referendum «a challenge to the society» and expressed her opinion, that in carrying out the referendum «one should not only lack any conscience, but also have an absolute neglect of the grassroots...».
EP er positive over for det hollandske for slag, og særligt over for forslaget om at etablere nationale kontaktpunkter, der samarbejder og udveksler oplysninger om biltyverier.
Electronic and printed mass-media in Belarus are monopolised by the authorities beyond all measure.
Samtidig fastslår EP, at udveksling af oplysninger mellem kontaktpunkter ikke må omfatte personlige data.
Besides, they are considered as a major link in the 'ideological work' and are
EP afviser asyllejre udenfor EU Hvad angår den seneste tids diskussioner om at oprette flygtningelejre uden for EU's grænser, hvor flygtninge skulle holdes til bage, medens deres sag blev vurderet, vedtog EP et ændringsforslag, hvori man fastlår, "at centre for personer, som ønsker at migrere, i det endelige transitland ikke kan betragtes som en holdbar løsning i regionen, heller ikke med henblik på at give de personer, som

This decision will be appealed against in the courts.
Undersøgelser de senere år viser, at der er et øget narkotikaforbrug blandt europæiske borgere.
In total in 2004, the Ministry of Information has suspended the activities of 19 independent media outlets.
Af en Eurobarometer-undersøgelse fra april-maj i år, som blev gennemført af Kommissionen og involverede 7.600 unge mellem 15 og 24 år fremgår det bl.a., at det er yderst let at skaffe narkotiske stoffer i alle EU-landene.
The Minister of Information, Uladzimir Rusakevich, justified these actions by minor infringements relating to registration documents.
EP understreger, at videnskabelige under søgelser af narkotikaforbrug peger på, at de repressive og strenge politikker, der er blevet vedtaget i medlemsstaterne, ikke kan bremse narkotikahandlen, der fortsat er en af de vigtigste indtægtskilder for den organiserede kriminalitet og blandt terrororganisationer.
However, common practice is that the courts in Belarus as a rule make politically motivated decisions against critical newspapers. This year, lawyers of the Law Centre for Media Protection at BAJ have already taken part in dozens of cases, half of which have been won.
EP mener derfor, at en fælles EU-strategi er absolut nødvendig for at løse narkotika-relaterede problemer.
Two weeks ago Garry Pahaniayla, vice-president of the Belarusian Helsinki Committee was charged with slandering the head of state.
Herunder fastlår EP, at en EU-strategi, udover at tage højde for stigningen i narkotikaforbruget, bør fokusere på det stigende antal dødsfald, der er forbundet med brug af narkotika.
In September, he gave an interview to a journalist of Swedish TV-4, in which was mentioned the names of those who are suspected of involvement in disappearance of Belarusian opposition politicians.
Endelig fastslår EP, at Kommissionens dobbelte metode - dels at sigte på en ensartet høj standard for anvendelsen af de nuværende direktiver og dels at forsøge at forbedre for holdene for det store flertal af flygtninge, der forbliver i deres hjemregion - er en rimelig metode, og man understreger, at EP ønsker at blive fuldt ud inddraget i udviklingen af initiativer på området.
In particular, several days prior to elections, a regional independent newspaper «Mestnaya Gazeta» was suspended for 1 month. In protest, its publisher and editor-in-chief Andrey Shantarovich declared a hungerstrike, which lasted 21 days.
Narkotikabekæmpelse: EU-strategi
After the hungerstrike ended, the journalist was charged with carrying out a non-authorised picket and fined.
