lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, many of us today have voted for the trade agreement with Pakistan in the belief that this is a sensible and essential step forward to progress the issue of human rights and further democratisation of Pakistan. It may at first seem a little peculiar to see who is voting on the one hand for the trade agreement while at the same time supporting the resolution on the issue of human rights in Pakistan. I do not believe there is a contradiction. The votes today are quite sensible and straightforward. We have pushed forward the issue of developing economic and trade links with Pakistan. We have pushed forward the issue of developing Pakistan's economy which, I believe, was an important step in ensuring that we will see further democratisation in Pakistan, further work towards the development of human rights, and fulfilment of the demands made in our second resolution which I was happy to support. It is a good day for Pakistan, for Kashmir, and for the Indian subcontinent and I am very pleased to have been here today."@en1
