". I naturally share your concern. The problem that existed in 2003 has certainly not become any more acute in 2004. I can only promise to ensure that the political dialogue with the authorities will be quickly relaunched, and that it will focus on the concerns which you have clearly expressed and which I share. In the coming weeks, at the beginning of the new year, I shall establish more regular contact with the authorities – whom I know well, incidentally. Indeed, in my previous life as a Foreign Minister, I visited Mauritania and was struck by the fact that, although the majority of its population are Muslims, Mauritania is one of the only Muslim countries that maintains relations with Israel and therefore tries to be even-handed. I admired Mauritania for that, because the ability of a Muslim country to adopt an even-handed approach to a conflict such as that in the Middle East seemed to me to indicate intelligence and a desire to avoid exposing the country’s political life to fundamentalism or excesses of any kind. For this reason, I do not think I shall have any difficulty in relaunching this political dialogue. You can certainly count on me to relaunch it at the start of the new year."@en1
