lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I believe that there are many of us who are deeply concerned about what is happening in Vietnam. The European Parliament too has expressed its concern on previous occasions. The tendency is to want to break people down and frighten them into silence. There are regular and constant violations of the conventions on freedom of expression, religion and association signed by Vietnam. The list of methods of oppression includes the draft law designed to abolish the right of small farmers to demonstrate peacefully in pursuit of their rights. It is particularly serious when the laws are exploited to oppress people. If Vietnam is to call itself a state governed by law, the laws must protect people’s right to express themselves and freely to practise their religion. Vietnam must also stop detaining and harassing dissidents and journalists, and its prisoners of conscience must be released. In this connection, I want especially to mention the UBCV. One of this organisation’s leaders, Quang Do, has also been nominated for the Nobel Prize in 2003. I genuinely wish to assent to this resolution."@en1
