"This is the answer we are usually given every time anybody asks a question about relations between the European Union and any of the world’s dictatorships. There is no antidemocratic dictatorship in the world that is not funded by the European Union on the pretext that that serves as an opening for dialogue.
We can see what is happening in Vietnam, in Laos, in China, in Cuba. Your words, President-in-Office, remind me of what was said in this Chamber in December 2000 with regard to the adoption of the joint resolution on Afghanistan. It would seem ridiculous if we were to hear it again now. Our short-sighted attitude to the future, despite the fact that we can already see clearly what is likely to happen, and this approach to international relations are disturbing as well as wholly unconvincing and herald much greater destruction than what we ourselves are already facilitating today."@en1
