". I am not in favour of suspending the Association Agreement with Israel. Europe has a moral duty towards Israel and cannot forget the responsibilities it has inherited from history. I condemn the policy of the Sharon Government as well as the suicide attacks. There is no military solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We must follow the way prepared by Itzhak Rabin and Yasser Arafat, the way of negotiation and peace. Europe must make its voice heard and exert more influence in the Middle East. We complain that the United States is the only country that can do this. That is because they are present in Israel and are guarantors of its security. If Europe wants to contribute to the triumph of peace, if it wants a peacekeeping force under the aegis of the United Nations to see the light of day and help to ensure compliance with a peace agreement and the Security Council resolutions, it must be more present, not less present, among the Palestinians and Israelis. Breaking the Association Agreement will not help Europe to play its part and become the key negotiator it would like to be. The path towards peace is narrow and Europe’s role in this region is equally restricted."@en1
