lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I feel that, in recent years, the way this issue has been addressed has been a prime example of cooperation between the European institutions. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Commission, the Commission officials and the Council for their constant focus on the matter and for their openness to society, Parliamentary group and NGO initiatives, for I feel that a model of cooperation has emerged from this exercise – which we have already applied, for example to the treaty on antipersonnel mines – which is proving effective and therefore warrants due analysis. Mention has been made here of some of the countries which have not ratified the Statute. There are others, from Russia to China, which should, perhaps, also be mentioned or be the subject of focus. Fifty-five countries have ratified the Statute, and I feel that our efforts must now be directed towards achieving a political and geographical balance. The endeavours made at the Seville Conference, for example, to include the Arab countries, the very positive, unexpected stance adopted by the Arab League and the recent statements by the Mexican President, Vicente Fox, give rise to the hope that, with further endeavours, we might not merely achieve that quota but, I believe, even attempt to take a flying leap beyond it and make participation as universal as possible. From this point of view, I feel that, as in other cases, Europe can be proud of these 10 years of dogged, resolute, difficult hard work, in which it was alone at the outset but which is now widely recognised. The attention accorded to the special courts of accountability too, such as the Sierra Leone court which is about to be set up, is evidence that, when it so wishes, Europe can also be a community of values."@en1
