"The President-in-Office's reply, I am sorry to say, is far from satisfactory. It smacks of formal, departmental despatches rather than political initiative. The Caucasus needs a more extensive plan and more extensive initiatives if it is to be stabilised. And a European Union which – from what I have read in the newspapers – recently changed its strategy on its energy problems and is now looking more towards the former Soviet Union – with all the implications which that has for the region in general – obviously cannot remain passive and fail to react to developments. So from this point of view, and because, of course, the question was not asked in order to elicit an expression of satisfaction that everything is just fine but in order to express a concern, I think that it could be used as the starting point for an integrated policy, such as that which we have been debating recently for the Balkans; in other words, a new stability agreement for the Caucasus, at the political initiative of the European Union and with political objectives and priorities concerning development, autonomy and democracy in this region."@en1
