"( ) Mr President, this explanation of vote is also shared by Arlette Laguiller and Armonie Bordes. The rapporteur’s succinct justification of his report expresses his misgivings on harmonisation with the fairly lax standards characterising the laws and common practice in some States, clearly showing the author’s desire to harmonise the right of asylum in the various countries of the European Union, but from the top. All the more so, given that a number of passages attack asylum abuses, even though governments in almost every country in Europe restrict this right, sometimes excessively stringently. This means that although, in some European countries, the application of this text could in theory improve the situation of asylum seekers, it would make it worse in others. Consequently, we have abstained from voting on this report, but we did vote in favour of the few articles, and especially the amendments, that at least express the idea that the right of asylum should be extended, and we denounce the scandalous nature of the policies of most European States, in particular France, which refuse to recognise this right, especially in the case of refugees from Algeria given the abuses by fundamentalists and the army."@en1
