lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, Cyprus possesses a small fleet of military defence helicopters, amongst them two French Gazelle helicopters. A year ago, the fuel indicator of one of these two helicopters was sent to a company called Vibro-Meter in the UK for repair. This was speedily carried out, but since then, the British Government has prevented the re-export of the repaired part back to Cyprus, stating that the UK has a defence equipment embargo on Cyprus. Cyprus, along with Britain, takes part in the common defence and security actions of the EU, including participation in EU peace missions, EU battle group formations and the European Defence Agency. How is it possible or even logical for one Member State – Britain – to have an arms embargo on another Member State – Cyprus? This surely must be in gross violation of the principles on which our Union was founded. I request that you make representations to the British Government so that, in the interests of the unity of our European Union, this embargo is lifted immediately."@en1
