"Mr President, there were enough warnings before the crisis in Kosovo really got under way. Before 11 September, Afghanistan was on the EU’s list of forgotten crisis regions. I think these are two examples of the way in which we are all too often all too wise all too late. Unfortunately, when it is too late there is every willingness to employ quite fabulous sums on military action. This is in stark contrast to the willingness to employ resources on civil crisis prevention and on peacekeeping. Now, the EU has decided to play an active role in conflict prevention in Africa. That is something I view in positive terms. However, we should also play a more active and independent role in relation to the conflict in the Middle East. That role has unfortunately fallen somewhat by the wayside since 11 September. The Sakharov Prize is not enough. We must make pro-active use of the tariff agreement in this crisis."@en1
