lpv:translated text	". Mr President, as has already been said, there can be no easy solution to a conflict that has been going on for nearly 25 years. What we are dealing with here is a sort of suppurating swelling that breaks out from time to time. I agree with all those speakers who have said that it is no solution at all to have recourse to force of arms in order to win a particular dispute. We should instead carry on talking. The great question is: what is the best way to do this? Norway has been acting as a mediator since 2002, and Mrs Gill and the other Member were quite right to point that out, but whether Europe can play a more significant role is a major issue. Would it do any good if a major politician from Europe were to go to Sri Lanka to talk with the two sides and with other interested parties too? A delegation of us went there last year, and, at the time, the suggestion was made from various quarters that it might be useful if some greater power than Norway were to emerge as mediator. I would be particularly appreciative if the Commission could let us know what it thinks of this suggestion."@en1
