lpv:translated text	". Yesterday, during the debate on Chechnya, my German colleague Mr Markov presented an optimistic view of the renewed stability, the referendum held, and support for reconstruction. However, he was clearly critical of the policies of the Russian Government and advocated a peaceful and humanitarian approach for the future. I do not think that I was alone in finding the word ‘stabilisation’ somewhat provocative, although I know that Mr Markov did not intend it to be, and now himself agrees that he should not use that word again as it gives rise to misunderstandings. Terms such as ‘stability’ and ‘reconstruction’ are often used by occupying powers wishing to gain support for their continuing occupation. The terminology used creates the impression that the conflict is over and that it goes without saying that Chechnya has a future as an autonomous part of the Russian Federation. I think that the conflict is still going on, that the referendum is seen by the majority of Chechens as an instrument of the military occupying powers, and that, on the basis of the assurances of the late General Lebed, there must be negotiations between the Chechen State structures arising from earlier elections and the Russian State claiming this region. In this connection, I can only support the resolution of the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance, although it unfortunately lacks a reference to the abduction of Arjan Erkel."@en1
