"Mr President, the question of Lebanon is included in this week's agenda. We shall be debating the withdrawal of the Syrian occupying forces from Lebanon, a Security Council resolution. We here – in civilised Europe – welcome this, we applaud it and there is not one among us who does not want the occupying army to leave Lebanon. However, there is also an identical Security Council resolution for the Turkish occupying army in Cyprus. Is there no sensitivity on that subject? We cannot maintain that there are two sets of standards? We here in the European Parliament must say that what applies to the Syrian army – which must leave Lebanon – should also apply to the Turkish army, which must leave Cyprus. It is an identical resolution by an identical council, the Security Council. If, therefore, we really want democracy and equality before the law, we should call on the Turkish army to leave Cyprus, just as we are calling on the Syrian army to leave Lebanon."@en1
