lpv:translated text	"The discussion on the Euro-Mediterranean Association Agreement between the EC and Egypt is a tragic illustration of the European Union’s conception of foreign policy. In this type of agreement, what takes precedence over everything else is establishing a free-trade area in the Mediterranean and giving priority to liberalisation and the dismantling of public services. The Member States have no reason to be proud of the fact that they are pursuing trade relations with the Egyptian state, which scorns human rights and freedom of expression and of conscience, which practises the death penalty and which has no time for political pluralism. Today, the imprisonment of 52 Egyptians for homosexuality should be the time radically to re-think our relations both with Egypt and also with other countries with totalitarian tendencies. What is now a matter of urgency for us is to demand of President Mubarak and his government that they free these 52 detainees immediately and unconditionally. It is a question of penalising the Egyptian State and its policies by not contributing to the financial enrichment of a minority that despises human rights. I have voted in favour of this report because it strongly emphasises this requirement."@en1
