Community funding under the present regulation takes the form of subsidies or contracts, which the Commission is proposing should also be extended to corporate bodies where appropriate. I agree with that. Participation by civil society should be supported, regardless of the kind of the institutional structure involved in each individual case. It is imperative that the European Union should continue, improve and intensify the actions described in the Commission communication of 8 May 2001 entitled ‘The European Union’s role in promoting human rights and democratisation in third countries’.
The European Union is the last window of hope in the eyes of many people. As the Committee on Foreign Affairs demonstrated (with only one abstention), we must therefore provide the European Initiative for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR) with all possible instruments to fulfil its objectives, focusing primarily on support for democratisation, good governance and the rule of law.
For the rest, I refer to the speech I made yesterday during the debate in the House.
I voted for the report, of course."@en1
