Chris Patten roste også Kofi Annan, som var en stor personlighed, der gennem mange år har tjent FN på en fremragende måde.
He stated: " We support the fight against global terrorism, but we also recognise the duty to fight against global poverty.
Hjertet og politisk klogskab Formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert PÖTTERING fastslog, at det var en vigtig dag i Europa-Parlamentets historie.
As regards Weapons of Mass Destruction, we stand firmly on the side of non-proliferation, but our instinctive European response is for engagement and not isolation."
Ved at give Sakharov-prisen til Kofi Annan og FN's personale har man brugt både hjertet og politisk klogskab, idet FN-medarbejdeme kæmper for menneskerettighederne og demokratiet. Pöttering håbede, at EU en dag kan optræde med en stemme i FN.
He also emphasised Parliament's support for the Kyoto protocol and its clear preference for the due process of the International Criminal Court rather than the lack of process at Guantanamo Bay.
Den franske grønne Daniel COHN-BENDIT sagde under debatten, at medens han lyttede til Kofi Annan hørte han en anden tale i øret, nemlig Martin Luther Kings tale, hvor han sagde, at "I have a Dream". Det var Cohn-Bendits drøm, at alle regeringsledere i verden ville høre Kofi Annans klare budskab om indvandring.
He also recognised the solemn purpose of the occasion, noting that on 19 August 2003, in Baghdad, terrorism reached a new low, when twenty-two UN staff members paid the ultimate price in the service of peace.
Men problemet er, at på hjemmefronten gør vi det stik modsatte af, hvad den klarsynede og stærke Kofi Annan anbefaler, fastslog Cohn-Bendit.
He also welcomed a number of former winners of the prize who were present: the President of East Timor, Mr Xanana Gusmão (1999); the President of Kosovo, Mr Ibrahim Rugova (1998); Ms. Senka Kurtovic (for Oslobodjenje) (1993); Mr. Wei Jingsheng (1996); Ms. Salima Ghezali (1997); Basta Ya (2000); Dom Zacharias Kamwenho (2001).
EU/FN: Fælles opgave!
The President welcomed the relatives of the victims to the chamber:
Formanden for den socialistiske gruppe, spanieren Enrique BARÓN mindede om FN's vanskelige heroiske arbejde for fred og stabilitet i verden, og at det er vigtigt med solidaritet mellem EU, FN og andre organisationer.
The President recalled the continuing fight for freedom and democracy which prevented Aung San Suu Kyi from being present.
Kofi Annan havde udtrykt meget kloge ord om indvandring, og Barón var enig med Kofi Annan i, hvad EU burde gøre.
Leyla Zana was not free and continued her incarceration, though Mr Cox had received a letter from her expressing her solidarity and her wish for a century of peace and democracy.
EU og FN har en fælles opgave, og vi må forsvare multilateralisme.
Oswaldo Paya was also prevented from attending by the Cuban authorities.
FN er nødvendig, idet FN for svarer en nobel opgave, sluttede Enrique Barón.
He had sent a message of solidarity and dedication to the cause of human rights.
FN-personalet udfører et heroisk arbejde som fredsbevare, og det er vigtigt at styrke samarbejdet mellem EU og FN. Brian Cowen understregede, at menneskerettighederne ikke virkeliggør sig selv, og at vi står over for mange udfordringer såsom indvandring, fattigdom og sult, og at den eneste vej til fred går gennem FN og multilateralisme.
Mrs Annie de Mello, widow of Sérgio Vieira de Mello, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and Special Envoy of the Secretary-General in Iraq and their son Mr Laurent de Mello; Mrs Rula Al-Farra, sister of Ms. Reham Al-Farra of the UN Department of Public Information; Mr Luis Martin Oar and his wife Mrs Paloma Gascon, brother and sister-in-law of Manuel Martin Oar, Coordinator with United Nations Specialized Agencies; and the survivors:
Kollektivt ansvar! Den franske GUE'er Francis WURTZ takkede Kofi Annan for hans "pragtfulde tale", idet han pegede på, at krig ikke løser verdens problemer. Vi har alle et kollektivt ansvar for at løse problemer som terror og konflikten i Mellemøsten, fastslog Francis Wurtz.
"Ours" he said, "is a Union of values based on pluralist democracy, respect for the rule of law, respect for individual and minority rights, sustainability, solidarity, open economy respect for cultural diversity.
San Suu KYI, det tidligere kurdiske parlamentsmedlem Leyla ZANA og Osvaldo PAYA - grundlægger af den Kristne Frihedsbevægelse i Cuba.
He also stressed the need to help improve the capacity of poor countries to deal with refugees, since seven out of ten refugees in fact seek refuge in developing countries.
Men ind vandrerproblemet løses ikke ved at åbne vore grænser, mente Pasqua. Vi bør fordømme de økonomiske konsekvenser af globaliseringen, og vi bør øge støtten til u-landene, så alle de der lider, kan få et normalt liv.
Most immigrants, he said, were not refugees -they were called voluntary migrants, even if they often left their home country because they saw no future for themselves there.
EU: "Fæstningfor menneskeheden " Cox sagde, at prisoverrækkelsen giver EP en symbolsk og højtidelig lejlighed til at markere de fælles værdier og mål, der deles af EU og FN, nemlig respekten for menneskerettigheder, retsstaten, demokratiet og den kulturelle mangfoldighed.
Mr Annan expressed his thanks and pride in accepting the award in memory of Sergio Vierira de Mello and the other UN staff who have lost their lives in working for peace in the world.
Endvidere frem hævede Cox, at EU i væsentlig grad bidrager til sikring af disse værdier, bl.a. ved at være den største donor til "bistand uden bånd", deltagelse i kampen mod verdens fattigdom og sikring af EU's grænser mod illegal ind vandring og terrorisme.
It was, he said, a welcome acknowledgement of the kinds of people they were.
Cox understregede, at EU skal være "en fæstning for menneskeheden - ikke for Europa ".
The brave men and women lost in Baghdad were free spirits and free thinkers.
Cox sagde endvidere, at EU giver sin ved holdende støtte til den internationale strafferet og arbejder for en løsning på Guantanamofangernes situation.
He also thanked President Cox and Parliament for inviting the relatives of victims and survivors to the ceremony, which, he said, spoke volumes about the solidarity of the EU and the UN.
Bondes drøm Jens-Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen mindede om, at vi nedbryder klodens biodiversitet, at 2 millioner børn er døde i krig de sidste 10 år, at over 4 millioner unge er døde af AIDS, og at 15 millioner børn har mistet deres forældre på grund af AIDS.
Mr Annan said this human rights crisis shames our world, as was all the more tragic because many States which closed their doors actually need immigrants.
Aldrig før har så mange uskyldige børn haft brug for vor hjælp.
European populations were shrinking and ageing, he said.
Bonde mente, at FN's blå baretter, der kæmper for fred, skal blive en permanent hærstyrke, hvor Kofi Annan er general for generalerne.
By 2050 the population of the 25 EU countries would fall from 452 million to 400 million with jobs going unfilled and services undelivered.
Det var Bondes drøm, at der en gang blive så mange naive - ligesom ham selv - at vi ikke mere tillader krig, nedbrydning af kloden, og at uskyldige børn lider.
Immigration was an inevitable and important part of the solution, he said, encouraging European states to open up greater avenues for legal migration.
Bombeangreb på FN's hovedkvarter i Bagdad: Medfølelse til de efterladte Cox mindede om bombeangrebet på FN's hovedkvarter i Bagdad i august sidste år, hvor 22 af FN's ansatte (herunder Sergio VIEIRA DE MELLO) "betalte den yderste pris i fredens tjeneste".
But our determination is stronger than ever and we value the solidarity of friends like you. Europe has seen more than its fair share of war, tyranny and terrible suffering.
Under stående klapsalver fra alle i salen udtrykte Cox sin dybeste medfølelse med de tilstedeværende efterladte, blandt andre enken og sønnen til Vieira De Mello.
But Europeans have replaced that with a future of hope. You have pursued the path of peace through multilateralism.
Cox sagde til de tydeligt rørte efterladte: Vi kan ikke erstatte Jeres tab, kun udtrykke vores dybe medfølelse.
And today, the European Union is a shining light of tolerance, human rights and international co-operation."
Endelig overrakte Cox - igen fulgt af højlydte og taktfaste klapsalver - Sakharov-prisen til Kofi Annan for forsvaret for frihed og frem me af de fælles værdier.
The movement of people across borders, he said, was not going to stop. It was necessary to manage this movement far better than at present for the sake of the countries migrants leave, travel through and migrate to.
Velkommen til tidligere prismodtagere Cox bød de tidligere Sakharov-prismodtagere velkommen til EP, herunder bl.a.
Mr Annan recognised the problems and difficulties of immigration, especially regarding the integration of migrants with diverse cultures, religions and languages.
"EU: Et strålende lys af tolerance" FN's generalsekretær, Kofi Annan takkede EP for prisen, og var særligt beæret over at de efterladte til ofrene for bombeangrebet i Bagdad, var blevet inviteret til højtideligheden.
When refugees could not seek asylum because of offshore barriers, or when they were detained for excessive periods in unsatisfactory conditions, or refused entry because of restrictive interpretations of the 1951 Convention, Mr Annan said the promise of the Convention was broken, along with the asylum system.
Annan sagde, at denne gestus "siger meget om EU's solidaritet med FN'.
He encouraged EU states to
Annan betegnede EU som "et strålende lys af tolerance", der efter den 1. maj - når EU ud vides med 10 nye lande - vil lyse endnu stærkere.
In the process immigrants have sometimes been stigmatised, vilified, even de-humanised."
Han opfordrede endvidere til en yderligere udvidelse, således at Vesten og Islam kan mødes og folk, der har udkæmpet blodige krige kan forenes.
He argued the essential truth had been lost: the vast majority of migrants were industrious, courageous, determined and law abiding people looking for a fair opportunity, not a free ride.
Annan sagde, at immigration og integration er tovejs: immigranter skal tilpasse sig samfundet, og ligeledes skal samfundet tilpasse sig efter immigranterne - integration betyder netop "at gøre hel".
It is in many ways a pity that the prevailing image of the UN derives so much from the moments of vertiginous political drama in and around the chamber of the Security Council.
Immigration: En vigtig del afløsningen Annan lagde, i sin tale til EP, særligt vægten på immigrationsspørgsmål.
An essential ingredient was leadership: Mr Annan urged MEPs to send a clear message that migrants need Europe and Europe needs migrants.
Han under stregede, at legal immigration er en forudsætning for de europæiske samfunds overlevelse - i en tid, hvor fødselstallet falder og de europæiske befolkninger bliver stadigt ældre. Som illustration sagde Annan, at et land som f eks. Italien i nær fremtid vil opleve et fald på 1/4 af befolkningen, hvis ikke man åbner op for legal indvandring.
A closed Europe would be meaner, poorer weaker and older.
Annan fremhævede, at hovedparten af alle immigranter er modige, ærlige og lovlydige mennesker, der ønsker at opnå en fair chance for et bedre liv.
The UN Secretary-General concluded by stating his belief that if Sergio Vieira de Mello - and indeed Andrei Sakharov - were present, they would say the same thing: people who move across borders today in search of a better life for themselves and their families, are our brothers and our sisters too.
Det er samtidig mennesker, der værner om deres kulturelle identitet.
"Let us treat them that way" he said, as MEPs rose to a standing ovation.
Ros til EU's flygtningepolitik Annan sagde endvidere, at de europæiske stater - sammen med FN - skal arbejde aktivt for, at immigranterne kan vende tilbage, så ledes at de kan bidrage til udviklingen i deres oprindelseslande.
The Minister said that we are indebted to Secretary-General Annan on many levels and for many things.
Han roste EU for at have indtaget en lederrolle - navnlig i kraft af Tampere-aftalen, der udstikker rammerne for minimumsstandarder på flygtningeområdet.
He drew attention to the courage and clarity with which he has addressed the challenges facing the multilateral system.
Opfordring til fælles europæisk immigrationssystem Annan talte om legal og illegal immigration samt om flygtninge, og han gjorde det klart, at EU bør arbejde for et åbent fælles asyl- og immigrationssystem med en klar ansvarsdeling, der sikrer legal immigration af såvel kvalificeret som ukvalificeret arbejdskraft, familiesammenføringer og økonomiske for bedringer for immigranter.
At the General Assembly last September, the Secretary-General characterised the position to which the UN had come as "a fork in the road\ Recently, at the World Economic Forum, the Secretary-General noted that the conduct of international politics had become less favourable to the maintenance of a stable, equitable and rules-based international order and that the role of the United Nations itself and the system of collective security, were under serious strain. It is because of the urgency of this threat that the Council has recommitted itself to effective multilateralism.
I samme ånd citerede Annan den schweiziske forfatter Max Frisch, der i forbindelse med 60'ernes gæstearbejdertid har udtalt: "Vi ønskede arbejdere, men fik mennesker".
A stronger international society, a rules-based international order and strong international institutions are critically important EU objectives. Central to this is the EU's support for a strengthened United Nations.
Bekæmpe "den tavse menneskerettighedskrise" Endelig sagde Annan, at EU, FN og hele det internationale samfund skal gøre alt for at stoppe den illegale indvandring, der fører til ulovlig handel med mennesker, herunder kvinder, der sælges til prostitution: en situation Annan betegnede som "den tavse menneskerettighedskrise".
The Minister continued by stating that intensified and effective cooperation between the EU and the UN is a central priority for Ireland's Presidency.
Annan understregede, at den legale immigration ikke er den eneste, men derimod en vigtig del af løsningen på de europæiske samfunds befolkningsproblemer.
It is imperative that the United Nations is given the means to meet successfully the many and varied challenges of today.
Annan sagde, at et lukket Europa er et dårligere, svagere og ældre Europa, hvorimod et åbent Europa er et retfærdigt, rigere og stærkere Europa.
As the Secretary-General said in his report last year on the implementation of the Millennium Declaration, human rights are universal principles but, inspiring as those principles are, they don't implement themselves. The multilateral system
EU-FN: En bedre verden for hele men neskeheden Annan fremhævede, at de mennesker, der bevæger sig over grænserne er vores brødre og søstre og skal behandles som sådanne.
Brian COWEN, T.D., Foreign Affairs Minister, speaking for the Presidency of the Council, said it was a signal honour to take part in this sitting of the European Parliament for the award of the Sakharov Prize 2003 to Secretary-General Annan and the entire UN staff and to commemorate in particular Mr. Sergio Vieira de Mello and the many other UN officials who have lost their lives in the performance of their duties.
Han afsluttede sin tale med at sige, at EU og FN i fællesskab giver håb om en bedre fremtid for hele menneskeheden.
And he could think of no more fitting recipient of this prize than Secretary-General Annan and his colleagues.
Kritik af "strammere" på flygtningeområdet Annan ledte opmærksomheden hen på, at FN's Flygtningekonvention fra 1951 forpligter medlemmerne til at tage et kollektivt, juridisk og moralsk ansvar for flygtninge. Han rettede samtidig en kritik imod de (ikkenavngivne) lande, der fortolker konventionen for restriktivt, og dermed undergraver konventionens formål.
He stated that the enduring value of the Sakharov Prize was that it evoked continually the memory and example of an outstanding human rights advocate who lived and worked in circumstances where such advocacy was considered an act of dissidence.
Det irske formandskabs program og den europæiske forfatning Dok.: B5-0044/2004, 0048/2004 Procedure: Forslag til beslutning Afstemning: 29.1.2004
He stated that he was deeply grateful therefore to the Secretary-General for his ceaseless work in defending the multilateral system.
Åbent, retfærdigt og afbalanceret irsk formandskab Den irske Europaminister Dick ROCHE sagde, at det irske formandskab har som sin ambition at være åbent, retfærdigt og af balanceret.
that human rights and humanitarian law can be effectively defended.
Formandskabet har i de seneste uger afholdt uformelle møder med enkelte af EU's stats- og regeringsledere for at klarlægge de forskellige holdninger og ønsker til regeringskonferencen.
It provides the only real means of addressing the varied threats of today: terrorism, weapons of mass destruction, poverty, hunger and disease together with new, or rather growing challenges, such as migration to which the Secretary-General has made particular reference today.
Roche fremhævede, at alle parter er interesserede i at komme videre, men understregede samtidig, at der er sensitive og komplekse problemer, der skal løses, hvis regeringskonferencen skal munde ud i en for fatningstraktat for EU under det irske for mandskab.
It is only through being multilateralist that effective action can be taken to meet the Millennium Development Goals, for example, so that the glaring inequalities and unremitting human suffering which in turn create and foster so many threats to peace and security are meaningfully addressed.
"Kompromisånd" er nødvendig Roche sagde, at det irske formandskab vil bestræbe sig på, at alle nuancer kommer frem i lyset, og at man vil tage disse i betragtning i de foreløbige konklusioner, der vil blive fremlagt på EU-topmødet i marts.
He stated that it was entirely in character that the Secretary-General did not use this occasion to indulge the plaudits that inevitably and rightly come with prestigious prizes such as this.
Hermed understregede Roche, at formandskabet vil gøre alt hvad der står i dets magt for at sikre et resultat, som alle kan stå indenfor, men at det samtidig er umuligt at gennemtvinge enighed.
Instead, he had chosen to direct our attention to the challenges of a major pressing issue, that of migration.
Roche efterlyste i den forbindelse en "kompromisånd" og en vilje til samarbejde fra samtlige medlemsstater.
This is an issue with which in Ireland has enduring historical experience accumulated through generations who emigrated from Ireland and made lives for themselves abroad.
Konventets tekst: Stadig udgangspunktet Roche gjorde det klart, at Konventets tekst stadig danner udgangspunkt for forhandlingerne, da den udstikker en klar og demokratisk kompetencefordeling mellem EU's institutioner og de nationale parlamenter.
It was fortunate, he said, that the UN was blessed with other equally talented individuals, and was led by one, Mr Annan, to whose work he also paid tribute. Welcoming Mr Annan's words on immigration, the Commissioner commended the sentiments of the speech to MEPs and their electorates.
Ifølge Roche giver Konventets tekst de nationale parlamenter en væsentlig rolle i udformningen af "den europæiske arkitektur".
"I hope we will hear these arguments put with compassion and consistency to those who I trust will do their democratic duty later this year, " he concluded.
Efter EP-debatten om EU-regeringskonferencens videre forløb vedtog EP en beslutning, hvori man glæder sig over det nye irske EU-rådsformandskabs positive holdning til at afslutte regeringskonferencen på grundlag af Konventets udkast til forfatning.
It is now an issue of major global significance which needs to be put higher up the international agenda. Globalisation has given rise to an unprecedented movement of people, in turn giving rise to unparalleled challenges.
EP opfordrer indtrængende regeringskonferencen til at afslutte sit arbejde inden den 1. maj 2004, hvor EU bliver udvidet med de 10 nye medlemslande.
Like the Secretary-General, he welcomed the establishment last month of the Global Commission on International Migration.
I beslutoingen henviser EP til den irske premierminister Bertie Aherns redegørelse til Europa-Parlamentet i Strasbourg den 14. januar 2004, og man minder om EP's stærke tilslutning til processen omkring forfatningen for Europa og EP's skuffelse over, at der ikke blev opnået noget resultat under Bruxelles topmødet i december 2003.
UN High Commissioner for Refugees Lubbers attended the informal meeting of EU Justice and Home Affairs Ministers in Dublin on Thursday last, at which there was a constructive discussion of proposed European asylum and migration legislation. This was very useful and we look forward to building on this valuable dialogue such with such an important partner, the United Nations Organisation.
Advarsel: "Senere" kan blive til "Aldrignogensinde"!
Andrei Sakharov, he said, was an inspirational supporter of human rights and a great scientist.
Michel BARNIER fra EU-Kommissionen indledte sit indlæg med et ordsprog: "Hvis man går ned ad "senere-vejen", når man frem til "aldrig-nogensinde pladsen"".
Quoting Andrei Sakharov and making reference to absent Cuban Laureate Oswaldo José Paya Sardinas, "the most important voice is the one you do not hear."
Hermed understregede Barnier Kommissionens bekymring for, om EU's forfatningstraktat nogensinde bliver en realitet.
As for immigration, he stated that he shared Mr Annan's views on the importance of integration.
Barnier sagde, at det er centralt at ånden fra Konventet bevares, hvilket forudsætter at samtlige aktører
For the European Union, the United Nations is more than a political affiliation. As the Nobel Committee stated in awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Kofi Annan and the
(institutioner, medlemslande og det civile samfund) samarbejder.
Enrique BARÓN CRESPO (E), for the PES group, stated that it was a "great honour" to receive the Secretary-General of the UN.
Han sagde endvidere, at det irske formandskab giver nyt håb til processen.
He pointed out that it was his group that first nominated Kofi Annan for the prize.
POTTERING, at 2004 er et afgørende år for EU med udvidelsen med 10 nye medlemslande 1. maj, hvor vi får et EU med 450 millioner indbyggere, hvilket er mere end USA og Rusland tilsammen.
He also stated that Mr Blix and Mr Baradei should be commended for their work.
Forfatningen har højeste prioritet for PPE, og nu er det nødvendigt med kompromisvilje og at vise respekt for hinanden - både store og små lande.
Mr Annan's speech, he said, recalled the importance of migration for the development of mankind.
Vi må undgå et EU med 1. og 2. division og undgå et "Kerne-Europa", som er en tilbagevenden til mellemstatsligt samarbejde, sluttede Pöttering.
As he put it, "globalisation, is a phenomenon that applies to goods, services and capital but not to people."
Balance i Konventets tekst skal bevares Kommissionen onsker en samlet aftale, der tager udgangspunkt i Konventets tekst og kun tilføjer mindre tilpasninger og forbedringer. Barnier understregede, at balancen i Konventets tekst skal bibeholdes, særligt hvad angår de budgetmæssige og finansielle aspekter. ter.
For the UEN group, Charles PASQUA (F) praised the work of Mr Annan and the UN and offered his condolences, friendship and respect to the relatives of those killed in the service of a just and noble cause.
Barnier sluttede som han begyndte med at advare imod. at ratificeringen af forfatningstraktaten udsættes yderligere.
He would have liked to hear more from Mr Annan on the subject of globalisation and the imbalances between nations that it created.
Slip håndbremsen! Formanden for den socialistiske gruppe, spanieren Enrique BARON mente, at det virker som om situationen har ændret sig.
Jens-Peter BONDE (DK), for the EDD group, stressed the problems of environmental destruction and of HIV/AIDS in the developing world.
