"Mr President, as a representative of the Group of the European People’s Party and European Democrats, which is Christian Democratic in character, I wish to express our deep and sincere sympathy with all the victims of the terrible earthquake in Turkey. We would also express our sympathy to the Turkish Government and to everyone in Turkey. What has happened shows that, despite all the conflicts of political opinion, the most important thing is still life itself. It is important for the Turkish authorities and the EU to do everything possible to get aid through as soon as possible. The events in Turkey highlight the need, at international level too, for some form of emergency force to respond to appalling natural disasters of this kind. The fact is that the international TV companies are on the scene much more quickly than those of us from the European Union and those from various aid organisations. Let us work to ensure that aid gets through more quickly. In conclusion, I would just mention the fact that, the last time something similar happened in Turkey, there proved to be some coming together of Greeks and Turks."@en1
