lpv:translated text	"Mr President, very recently, two MEPs from the Netherlands, my own country, were refused entry to Cuba. They were deported from that country when they were travelling to talk to human rights activists, so-called dissidents. This is characteristic of what is happening in Cuba, because it fits in with a systematic pattern. Dissidents, including trade union leaders who, a few years ago, were able to talk to us, are now often sentenced to long prison sentences. Things are going from bad to worse, and contact with politicians such as ourselves is also affected. I can tell you from my own experience that, before this happened, the door to the embassy simply remained closed on more than one occasion and we did not even manage to get a meeting. I am saying this because some people here are urging in favour of a with Fidel Castro. My response to that would be that it is serious incidents of this kind that should lead us to persist in the common policy as it stands at present."@en1
