lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am very happy to see that our Parliament is finally looking into this matter. It is obvious that the international community made a serious mistake by not including the question of Kosovar prisoners in the agreements reached with the authorities in Belgrade. We must now correct this mistake. I agree entirely with our colleague Doris Pack when she says that this must be a precondition for any lifting of sanctions. I agree rather less, though, on the ability of the European Union and the international authorities to intervene in this matter. The issue of Kosovar prisoners is a humanitarian issue. The European Union is still providing humanitarian aid to Serbia. This is the only channel for aid still open. I think, and the Commission is in a prime position to intervene at this level, that as the issue of the Kosovar prisoners is a humanitarian one, the European Union could be less zealous in its supply of aid to the Serbian authorities until they have released all Kosovar prisoners. I feel that there is something we can do straight away, which is to send a clear message to the authorities in Belgrade, and I ask the Commission to let us know the results of its steps as quickly as possible."@en1
