lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Russia is becoming an ever more important partner of ours and that importance is increasing all the time. Russian culture is perhaps Russia’s greatest asset, and yet we know little about it. It is a major asset for Europe. My group is worried by the situation in Chechnya, and it does not seem to be improving. We are in favour of the political solution that Moscow also supports, but the results still seem poor. We fear a civil war and that the conflict will spread outside Chechnya, to a region where there are already any number of good reasons for a conflict. We want the Russians to know that this is harming the development of relations between us and that is a big issue. We demand the implementation of human rights. Should there not be a joint Chechnya conference? We need aid organisations here quickly. We do not know very much about the case, at least not everything, but the method of arrest gives cause for alarm. What we think is important is that laws are obeyed and that openness, which is vital, is practised, but, of course, we know that there is a lot of shady business going on in the transfer of Soviet property into the hands of just a few and crimes have been committed. Membership of the World Trade Organisation is very important, as is acceptance of the Kyoto Protocol. Both these will help not just Russia’s development but the growth of its democracy. We also need cooperation on energy; that is the toughest sort of cooperation and the most important. In my opinion, we should combine our transport, telecommunications and energy networks with theirs. This would be the deed of the decade and would create a solid basis for cooperation between us."@en1
