lpv:translated text	". Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, it is worrying to note that, despite the immense tragedy that affected the Jewish world and consequently the whole of humankind during the last century, there are still outbreaks of racist and anti-Semitic feeling spreading across Europe and elsewhere. In recent years, we have even seen prejudiced stances against Israel here in Parliament, which have certainly not helped either to achieve peace in the Middle East or to demonstrate that Europe is more able or prepared to make a common stand against terrorism and violence. Knowledge of the massacres and tragedies that humankind has seen in recent history and the fight to prevent crimes of a similar nature from being repeated represent one of the founding values of the European Union, which was created from the awareness that peace, democracy and respect for others are principles that cannot be taken for granted but, instead, need to be strongly reaffirmed every day. The fact that the presidents of the political groups in the European Parliament were present at the ceremony marking the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz – to which I paid tribute in 1999 together with the current Italian Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr Fini – takes on a special significance today because it represents the unity and will of the people of Europe not only to condemn the Holocaust but also to continue to fight the injustice, violence and discrimination that still exist in Europe and throughout the world. Nonetheless, while reaffirming our condemnation of the past tragedy, we must show our concern at the news of anti-Semitic demonstrations in Russia and several countries in Europe. Those who still do not understand the need for an out-and-out commitment to combat anything that openly or surreptitiously justifies or even fails to condemn acts of intolerance, racism and anti-Semitism do not realise how ignorant they are of history or that they are creating for themselves an abyss from which there is no return."@en1
