lpv:spoken text	". Mr President, I wish to thank Mrs Malmström for her openness and cooperation in working out a balanced and productive parliamentary position. Positive developments have recently taken place in EU Russia relations. We warmly welcome the adoption of the single package of roadmaps for the creation of the four ‘common spaces’ at the last EU Russia summit in Moscow. We consider this a breakthrough in the EU Russia strategic partnership. We are both committed to multilateralism, which is the only solution to global problems. Therefore, we should work together in reforming the United Nations. We as European Socialists regard Russia’s ratification of the Kyoto Protocol as a highly positive step. We acknowledge Russia’s constructive role in the fight against terrorism and in nuclear disarmament. We look forward to mutually beneficial energy cooperation with no added political motivation. We should support the accession of Russia to the WTO. However, we should not forget about divergences of opinion or disputes. We are deeply worried about the weakening of democracy in Russia. We also call on Russia to ensure better protection of national minorities. Without a readiness to reach a compromise and start a reconciliation process there can be no chance of ending the suffering and developing a lasting peace in the framework of a wide autonomy for the Republic of Chechnya. The European Union and Russia can only develop a real strategic partnership if Russia fully endorses the basic European values and principles of democracy, the rule of law and full protection of human and minority rights. It is in our common and vital interest to maintain Russia’s democratisation, modernisation and European orientation. There is no alternative to a strategic partnership between the European Union and the Russian Federation that is reliable, sustainable and mutually advantageous."@en1
