– ob upoštevanju Evropske pobude za demokracijo in človekove pravice, ki se je začela izvajati leta 2003 s ciljem spodbujati človekove pravice ter podpirati reformo kazenskega prava, demokracijo, dobro upravljanje, svobodo medijev, pravno državo, varnostne strukture (policijo/oborožene sile) in preprečevanje sporov, ter kasnejšega evropskega instrumenta za demokracijo in človekove pravice (Uredba (ES) št. 1889/2006)
– having regard to the European Initiative for Democracy and Human Rights, launched in 2003 with the aim of promoting human rights and supporting penal reform, democracy, good governance, media freedom, the rule of law, security structures (police/armed forces) and conflict prevention, and to the subsequent European Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights (Regulation (EC) No 1889/2006)
– ob upoštevanju polletnih ministrskih srečanj EU–osrednja Azija, ki potekajo od leta 2007, in ministrskih konferenc EU–osrednja Azija o varnostnih vprašanjih, ki so bile organizirane leta 2008 in 2009,
– having regard to the biannual EU-Central Asia Ministerial meetings held since 2007 and the EU-Central Asia Ministerial Conferences on security issues held in 2008 and 2009,
– ob upoštevanju poročila Odbora za zunanje zadeve ter mnenj Odbora za razvoj in Odbora za mednarodno trgovino ( A7-0338/2011 ),
– having regard to the report of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the opinions of the Committee on Development and the Committee on International Trade ( A7-0338/2011 ),
A. ker je trajnosten razvoj katerekoli države možen le, če se zagotovi varstvo človekovih pravic, vzpostavljanje in uresničevanje demokratičnih vrednot ter institucij, pravno državo in temeljne svoboščine ter dobro upravljanje in močno civilno družbo,
A. whereas the sustainable development of any country presupposes that protection of human rights, establishing and implementing democratic values and institutions, the rule of law, human rights and fundamental freedoms, as well as good governance and a strong civil society, are ensured,
B. ker v državah osrednje Azije obstajajo resne pomanjkljivosti na področju demokracije, človekovih pravic, pravne države in temeljnih svoboščin,
B. whereas serious deficits are found regarding democracy, human rights and rule of law and fundamental freedoms in Central Asian states,
C. ker je okrepljeno sodelovanje med EU in petimi državami osrednje Azije v vzajemnem strateškem interesu zaradi diverzifikacije in poglobitve političnih, družbenih in gospodarskih odnosov ter popolne izrabe potenciala, ki ga ponujajo sporazumi o partnerstvu,
C. whereas an enhanced cooperation between the EU and the five countries of Central Asia is of mutual strategic interest in order to diversify and deepen the political, social and economic relations and make full use of the potential the partnership agreements offer,
D. ker ima osrednja Azija za Evropsko unijo znaten pomen z vidika trgovinskega potenciala in energetske varnosti ter ker je to regijo prizadela nedavna svetovna finančna in gospodarska kriza,
D. whereas Central Asia holds significant importance for the European Union in terms of trade potential and energetic security and whereas the region has been affected by the recent global financial and economic crisis,
E. ker imajo nekatere države članice tesne dvostranske odnose z državami osrednje Azije in imajo vodilno vlogo pri naložbah in trgovini ter ker mora EU do te regije razviti skupen in usklajen pristop, da ne bi prišlo do nesporazumov, podvajanja nalog in, kar je najpomembneje, do posredovanja dvoumnih signalov,
E. whereas some Member States have strong bilateral relations with the Central Asian states, being leading sources of investment and trade and whereas the EU needs a concerted and coherent approach towards the region in order to avoid misunderstandings, duplication of tasks and most importantly, sending mixed signals,
F. ker so nekatere srednjeazijske države naredile prve korake v dolgem procesu demokratizacije, v katerem so nenehna in resna prizadevanja pri upravljanju in regionalnem sodelovanju nujna za premagovanje trdovratnih pomanjkljivosti, ki so jim doslej onemogočale, da bi v celoti izkoristile svoj politični, družbeni in gospodarski razvojni potencial,
F. whereas some Central Asian states took first steps in a long process of democratisation in which continuous and serious efforts in governance and regional cooperation are necessary conditions for overcoming persisting shortcomings which have so far prevented them from fully realising their political, social and economic development potential,
G. ker mala in srednja podjetja utelešajo podjetniški duh in načela prostega trga ter imajo zelo pomembno vlogo pri razvoju demokracij,
G. whereas SMEs are an embodiment of entrepreneurship and the free-market spirit, and are a powerful force in the establishment of democracies,
H. ker se zaradi pomanjkanja medsebojnega zaupanja krepijo napetosti v zvezi z deljenjem naravnih virov, ogroženo je sodelovanje v regiji, nevarnost za soočenja pa se povečuje; ker so težave v zvezi z razpoložljivostjo vode bolj posledica neustreznega upravljanja in tratenja vodnih virov kot pa količinskega pomanjkanja vode,
H. whereas the lack of mutual trust exacerbates tensions over the sharing of natural resources, undermines regional cooperation and increases risks of confrontation; whereas, however, the problems of availability of water stem more from mismanagement and wasting of water resources than from a quantitative deficit,
I. ker imajo EU in države osrednje Azije skupni interes na področju diverzifikacije izvoznih poti in sodelovanja pri doseganju energetske in okoljske trajnosti,
I. whereas the EU and the countries of Central Asia share a common interest in diversifying export routes and in cooperating on energy and environmental sustainability,
J. ker pomisleki o varnosti in stabilnosti v regiji ne bi smeli vključevati le državne varnosti, temveč tudi varnost celotnega prebivalstva, med drugim prek spoštovanja človekovih pravic, zagotavljanja prihodkov za preživetje, okolja in dostopa do osnovnih javnih storitev,
J. whereas concerns about security and stability in the region should include not only state security, but also the security of the populations through, inter alia, respect for human rights, livelihoods, the environment and access to basic public services,
Zaveza EU
E U commitment
3. meni, da mora EU ohraniti visoko raven sodelovanja v osrednji Aziji in svoje strategije prilagoditi napredku držav v regiji; poudarja, da morata biti stopnja in narava prizadevanj EU diferencirani in pogojeni z merljivim napredkom na področju demokratizacije, človekovih pravic, dobrega upravljanja, trajnostnega družbeno-gospodarskega razvoja, pravne države in boja proti korupciji, ter da mora Unija svojo pomoč nuditi tam, kjer je to potrebno za krepitev tega procesa v skladu z načeli, ki so podobna načelom sosedske politike EU (tj. več za več);
Considers that the EU needs to maintain a high level of engagement in Central Asia, tailoring its strategies to the progress of the states in the region; underlines the fact that the level and nature of the EU's engagement must be differentiated and conditional, depending on measurable progress in the fields of democratisation, human rights, good governance, sustainable socio-economic development, the rule of law and the fight against corruption, offering its assistance where needed to help foster this progress, following lines similar to the principles of the EU’s neighbourhood policy (i.e. ‘more for more’);
9. poudarja, da bi bilo mogoče izvajanje strategije izboljšati, po eni strani z okrepljenim internim usklajevanjem EU, po drugi strani pa z večjo udeležbo drugih mednarodnih donatorjev in regionalnih interesnih skupin;
Points out that implementation of the strategy can be enhanced, on the one hand, through intensified internal EU coordination and, on the other, through intensified engagement with other international donors and regional stakeholders;
13. znova poudarja, da bi bilo treba države s srednje visokimi dohodki, kot so tiste v osrednji Aziji, upoštevati pri splošni razvojni politiki EU in prizadevanjih za uresničitev razvojnih ciljev tisočletja, saj so razvojna prizadevanja – zlasti zaradi varčevanja pri razvojni pomoči zaradi svetovne finančne in gospodarske krize – pogosto osredotočena na najmanj razvite države, pri čemer so države srednje Azije spregledane;
Reiterates the importance of not overlooking middle-income countries, such as those of Central Asia, in the context of overall EU development policy and efforts to accomplish the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), since development efforts – especially in the context of cutbacks in development assistance due to the global financial and economic crisis – are frequently focused on the least developed countries thereby neglecting the Central Asian region;
15. izraža dvome glede uporabe proračunske pomoči v Kirgizistanu in Tadžikistanu, zlasti glede na razširjenost korupcije v teh državah; poziva Komisijo, da predstavi poročilo o uporabi proračunske podpore v teh državah;
Expresses, however, its doubt about the use of budget support in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, especially given the widespread corruption there; calls on the Commission to present a report on the use of budget support in these countries;
17 . priporoča, da se v prihodnje instrumenti, kot so TAIEX, Twinning in SIGMA, odprejo za države osrednje Azije, s čimer bi podprli izboljšanje standardov in potrebne reforme;
Recommends that in the future the TAIEX, Twinning and SIGMA instruments are opened to Central Asian countries in order to support the improvement of standards and the necessary reforms;
21. poziva Evropsko unijo, naj z ustrezno tehnično in finančno pomočjo še naprej podpira reformo javnega sektorja v državah osrednje Azije, da bi vzpostavili stabilne, reformirane in posodobljene upravne strukture v vseh zadevnih državah;
Calls on the European Union to continue supporting public sector reform in the countries of Central Asia through adequate technical and financial assistance in order to achieve stable, reformed and modernised administrative structures in all the countries concerned;
Demokratizacija, človekove pravice in pravna država
Democratisation, human rights and rule of law
24. zahteva krepitev dialogov o človekovih pravicah, da bi bili bolj učinkoviti in usmerjeni v rezultate; v zvezi s tem zahteva obsežno vključevanje Evropskega parlamenta v spremljanje teh dialogov; poziva Svet in Evropsko službo za zunanje delovanje (EEAS), naj v sodelovanju z Evropskim parlamentom ocenita učinek preteklih dialogov, upoštevata primerjalna merila uspešnosti za napredek držav v regiji na področju človekovih pravic in pravne države ter ocenita učinkovitost projektov pomoči EU pri doseganju tega cilja;
Calls for a strengthening of the human rights dialogues in order to make them more effective and result-oriented; calls in this regard for broad involvement of the European Parliament in monitoring these dialogues; urges the Council and the European External Action Service (EEAS) to assess the impact of the previous dialogues, to take account of benchmarks in cooperation with the European Parliament on the progress made by the states of the region in the field of human rights and the rule of law, and to assess the effectiveness of EU assistance projects in working towards this aim;
26. zelo ceni prizadevanja političnih fundacij za praktično sodelovanje v procesu demokratizacije z dolgoročno prisotnostjo na terenu;
Highly appreciates the work of political foundations providing practical cooperation in the democratisation process through their long-term presence on the ground;
Izobraževanje, otroci in izmenjava med ljudmi
Education, children and people-to-people exchange
Gospodarsko povezovanje in trajnostni razvoj
Economic integration and sustainable development
33. poudarja, da morajo vlade držav osrednje Azije promovirati in spodbujati mala in srednja podjetja, ki so eden od potrebnih elementov za njihov razvoj, in da bi EU pri pomoči malim in srednjim podjetjem v okviru mandata EIB za osrednjo Azijo temu morala nameniti posebno pozornost, hkrati pa sprostiti vizumske zahteve za podjetnike in študente iz osrednje Azije ob hkratnem spodbujanju standardov dela, varstva okolja in družbene odgovornosti podjetij; poleg tega meni, da se je treba izogibati praksam, ki diskriminirajo evropske industrije, tudi na ključnem področju javnih naročil, ter poziva EU, naj olajša sodelovanje med malimi in srednjimi podjetji iz EU ter malimi in srednjimi podjetji iz osrednje Azije;
Stresses the need for the governments of the countries of Central Asia to promote and support the proliferation of SMEs as one of the elements needed for the development of the countries concerned, and emphasises that the EU should give this higher priority in its assistance to SMEs under the EIB’s mandate for Central Asia and relax visa requirements for people travelling from Central Asia on business and higher education, while promoting international labour, environmental and corporate social responsibility standards; considers also that practices which discriminate against European industries should be avoided, including in the key sector of public procurement, and calls on the EU to facilitate cooperation between SMEs from the EU and SMEs from Central Asia;
35. poudarja, da se mednarodno gospodarsko povezovanje in regionalno gospodarsko sodelovanje dopolnjujeta in da bi si morale zato države osrednje Azije resnično prizadevati za oboje;
Underlines the fact that international economic integration and regional economic cooperation are complementary approaches and should therefore be genuinely pursued in Central Asia;
Energija, voda in okolje
Energy , water and the environment
38. poudarja pomembnost energije v odnosih z državami osrednje Azije, saj je ta pomemben vir prihodkov teh držav, te države pa bi lahko pomenile dejavnik zanesljive oskrbe z energijo za EU;
Stresses the importance of energy in relations with Central Asian countries, given that it constitutes a major source of revenue for the states and a potential source of energy security for the EU;
41. ob vse večjem pomanjkanju elektrike v osrednji Aziji poudarja priložnosti za doseganje regionalnih sinergij, tudi v obetavnem sektorju obnovljivih virov energije; poziva EU, naj zagotovi politično podporo in tehnično pomoč za pobude na tem področju;
Given the increasing electricity shortages in Central Asia, highlights the opportunities for regional synergy, including in the promising renewable energy sector; calls on the EU to provide political support and technical assistance for initiatives in this field;
44. meni, da je usklajeno in obsežno ponovno vlaganje nacionalnih prihodkov od naravnih virov ključno za zagotavljanje trajnostnega razvoja ter doseganje splošnega družbenega in gospodarskega razvoja;
Is of the opinion that ensuring coherent and comprehensive reinvestment of the national revenues from natural resources is crucial to sustainable development and achieving wide-ranging social and economic development;
46. opozarja, da pomanjkanje energije (npr. za ogrevanje in elektriko) poslabšuje položaj revnih ljudi v državah osrednje Azije; poziva EU, naj v skladu s svojimi obveznostmi na področju podnebnih sprememb okrepi pomoč pri spodbujanju oblikovanja trajnostne energetske politike, vključno z energetsko učinkovitostjo in obnovljivimi viri energije;
Highlights the fact that lack of energy (e.g. for heating and electricity) is exacerbating the situation of poor people in Central Asian countries; urges the EU, in line with its commitments on climate change, to step up its assistance with the development of sustainable energy policy, including through energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources;
49. podpira večjo prisotnost evropskih razvojnih bank v regiji ter zlasti razširitev mandata EIB na osrednjo Azijo in osredotočenje na vprašanja okolja in voda; poziva razvojne banke, naj podprejo načela Evropske banke za obnovo in razvoj, ki ne podpira podjetij v državni lasti v državah, kjer so sistematično kršene človekove pravice;
Welcomes the increased engagement of the European development banks in the region and, especially, the extension of the mandate of the EIB to Central Asia, focusing on environmental and water issues; urges the development banks to uphold principles established by the EBRD as regards desisting from support to state-owned enterprises in countries where there are systematic human rights violations;
Varnost/upravljanje meja
Security/ b order management
57. ugotavlja, da se je Kazahstan pridružil carinski uniji z Rusijo in Belorusijo, ter upa, da ta entiteta ne bo ovirala regionalnega sodelovanja in krepitve dvostranskih odnosov z EU;
Takes note of the accession of Kazakhstan to the customs union with Russia and Belarus and hopes that the development of this entity will not create obstacles to regional cooperation and will not hamper the stepping up of bilateral relations with the EU;
60. je zaskrbljen zaradi širjenja fundamentalističnih pogledov in gibanj, ki v regijo prodirajo iz Afganistana, hkrati pa se razvijajo tudi kot odziv na vprašljive rezultate vlad v regiji na področju človekovih pravic in demokracije; ugotavlja, da je boj proti terorizmu pomemben element strategije EU za osrednjo Azijo;
Is concerned at the dual issue of rising fundamentalist views and movements as a spill-over effect from Afghanistan but also as a reaction to the problematic human rights and democratic record of the governments in the region; notes that the fight against terrorism is an important element for the EU’s Central Asia strategy;
62. poudarja, da morajo misije OVSE in OZN svobodno delovati na ozemljih zadevnih držav, ker sta ti organizaciji ključni za zagotavljanje pomoči pri reformi varnostnega sektorja, ki jo te države še kako potrebujejo;
Stresses the need for the OSCE and UN missions to operate freely in the territories of the countries concerned, because these organisations are crucial to the provision of the much necessary assistance in security-sector reform;
68. spodbuja Kazahstan, naj znova dokaže svojo zavezanost pobudi za preglednost v ekstraktivni industriji ter odpravi vse zakonske ali regulativne ovire za uspešno izvajanje te pobude;
Encourages Kazakhstan to demonstrate its renewed commitment to the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) by removing all legal and regulatory obstacles to the successful implementation of this initiative;
74. poziva EU, naj s študijami izvedljivosti, tehničnim strokovnim znanjem in po potrebi ustreznimi posojili EIB spodbuja in podpira razvoj projektov manjših hidroelektrarn vzdolž porečij ter alternativnih obnovljivih virov energije;
Calls on the EU to promote and help, by means of feasibility studies, technical expertise and, where necessary, appropriate EIB loans, the development of smaller-scale hydroelectric plant projects distributed along the course of rivers, and of alternative renewable energies;
77. je zlasti zaskrbljen, ker sedanje oblasti sistematično izvajajo represivno politiko zoper vse oblike opozicije, neodvisne nevladne organizacije, zagovornike človekovih pravic; obžaluje zlasti, da se je izkazalo, da ni mogoče vzpostaviti dialoga s civilno družbo v Turkmenistanu;
Is particularly worried that the current authorities have been systematically applying repressive policies which target all forms of opposition, independent NGOs and human rights activists; considers it especially regrettable that dialogue with civil society in Turkmenistan has proved to be impossible;
Osrednja Azija ima za Evropo dobro znan, vendar pogosto podcenjen strateški pomen.
Central Asia’s strategic importance to Europe is well known but frequently underestimated.
Priprava strategije EU za to regijo leta 2007 je bila pokazatelj zavedanja EU in njene želje po celostnem in strukturiranem pristopu.
The development of an EU strategy vis-à-vis the region in 2007 marked a new awareness and the desire for a comprehensive, structured approach.
V štirih letih izvajanja je bilo doseženo veliko.
In the four years of implementing this strategy, much has been achieved.
