"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, as we all know, Cambodia is also important to its neighbours such as Vietnam and Laos in particular which, as Mrs Junker said, are facing much more serious situations.
I would like to thank all my fellow Members because I believe that this is a good resolution. Having said that, it always comes back to the question of whether the glass is half full or half empty: as it happens, Mr Nassauer sees the glass as half empty and Mrs Junker sees it as half full. Whatever the truth, I believe that the most important thing now is the elections.
The national electoral commission has set good standards and is doing a remarkable job. We too have come a long way. In January and February the situation was extremely worrying. Violence is still taking place today. If, however, we compare the situation today with what happened at the last elections, things are better. It is true that access to the media is not perfect, but it is better. This is where our resolution is so important: we must remain extremely vigilant so that between now and 27 July, the situation remains positive and elections that are as democratic as possible are able to take place."@en1
