".
Mr President, we have all returned safely from Palestine. I wish to thank my colleagues – there were 28 of us, the largest ever delegation of the European Parliament – the vice-chairman, Mrs Napoletano, and the staff who accompanied us and prepared the observation mission.
Our task, as Members of the European Parliament, is to deliver an informed political verdict on this crucial election at the Brussels part-session later this month. However, we feel that the Palestinian people – especially the women – should be proud. In spite of the Israeli occupation and the lack of opportunity for East Jerusalem residents and others to vote, this election prepares the ground for the Palestinian parliamentary elections in July and could serve as a model for others in the region. I hope that the European Parliament will respond to the appetite for democracy in the Arab world as a whole."@en1
