lpv:translated text	"Mr President, we all firmly believe that the European neighbourhood policy is a key element in the development of a common foreign and security policy for the European Union. We are also aware that our neighbourhood policy needs to be such that it can be adapted to the needs of individual countries. After all, it will affect countries that are very different from each other, such as Morocco and Ukraine. We are also aware that whilst retaining the flexibility of this instrument we should not forget that we are dealing with two kinds of situations. It is worth highlighting this fact. There are situations where what is involved is deepening and broadening cooperation in areas such as energy and security, and moving on into other appropriate areas. The North African countries are a good example. We also have to deal with the situation in quite different countries such as Belarus and Syria, where we are confronted by dictatorships and undemocratic scenarios. The European neighbourhood policy should serve as an instrument through which we can press for the democratisation of those countries. We are pleased to note that the Tannock report responds to these challenges and it is therefore worthy of support. A very good point of departure is that this neighbourhood policy should not be perceived as an alternative to the future accession of these countries to the European Union. Nobody seriously believes countries like Moldova, Belarus or Ukraine will soon join the European Union. What is important, however, is to leave the door open to enable European countries to apply for membership pursuant to the treaties. We also call for Amendment 55 and Amendment 52 tabled by Mr Klich to be supported. Amongst other things, they entail referring to the Belarussian regime as what it is, namely an undemocratic regime."@en1
