"Within the framework of the Barcelona Process, I consider it objectionable that insufficient consideration has been given to human rights and their practical application. I have therefore voted in favour of a number of amendments, including Amendments Nos 1-4.
As a Swedish Christian Democrat, I want to express my concern about the conditions experienced by the Christian Coptic minority in Egypt, since they are in practice being treated as second-class citizens in their own country. The progressive marginalisation of the Christian Maronite community in Lebanon is also deplorable.
I therefore believe that the protection of ethnic, religious and cultural minorities in the Mediterranean countries is a prerequisite of the Barcelona Process’s being able to move forward, and not only in the economic and financial areas."@en1
