"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Mr Laschet, opposition by three right-wing parties – three nationalist parties – has been suppressed in Azerbaijan, in advance of the opening of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline. The mass arrests have, in fact, deprived of their leadership the political opposition and the local human rights watch organisations challenging the patently fraudulent election. It is the usual story of the US sheriff controlling oil resources around the world. Wherever US soldiers do not move in, as they have done in Iraq, their political mercenaries move in: this is what is happening in Colombia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Madagascar. It is an operation begun immediately after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the Soviet Union. In order to safeguard its interests, the United States supplies millions of dollars in weapons and dispatches military advisers to the whole of the Caucasus region. By condemning the Azeri regime, the European Union is in fact condemning the US policy of exploitation. In order to protect human rights and democracy, we have to challenge US policy and interests."@en1
