"Mr President, unfortunately the hopes cultivated even about the recent conference of the Ba'ath party in Syria have quickly been dashed. The regime continues its anti-democratic methods and autocratic practices against any protestors. President Assad appears to be too weak to overturn the autocratic, nepotistic and back-scratching regime which permeates the political system.
The two former members of parliament in prison whose immediate release we are calling for – together with an immediate end to all political prosecutions – are also victims of the accusation of nepotistic behaviour on the part of the regime.
However, I believe that it will be in the interests of the people of Syria and their rights for the European Union to sign and ratify the association agreement. This will give us more tools to control and exert pressure, such as the human rights clause and structured political dialogue."@en1
