lpv:translated text	"Mr President, listening to most of the speakers, I had the impression that I was listening to Mrs Condoleeza Rice, and reading most of the resolutions, I thought that they were communications from the White House. The truth is that Lebanon, following the war and the occupation of Iraq by the Americans, is becoming the field of application of the Greater Middle East plan announced by the United States and adopted by ΝΑΤΟ and the European Union. This plan reinforces the role of Israel, sets its sights on the fight of the Palestinians for a free, independent state and exerts pressure on Syria and Iran. You do not want them to be independent. You only want them to be independent under your control and it is in this direction that resolution 1559 has been raised again. Why has it been raised now, I wonder, and what are you hoping for? Do you not know that it was the outcome of an agreement in order to stop the civil war in Lebanon? And now efforts are being made to create the preconditions so that there can be a new military intervention in the area and overall attack on the peoples. The assassination of the former prime minister of Lebanon is operating as huge provocation with multiple objectives. We consider that the peoples and the political forces in the area must resolve their problems and do not need protectors. Finally, we ask you: how much hypocrisy is there? What about the 40 000 occupying troops in Cyprus? Why do you not ask about them – now, immediately, tomorrow – and why do you not lobby for them to withdraw from the island? Why two sets of standards? That is why we say that the European Union and the United States of America have a different objective."@en1
