lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the harrowing state of human rights in Zimbabwe has been, as we all are aware, for some time an issue of pressing concern and this is not the first time that it has been on this House’s agenda. For how many years now has the Marxist dictator Mugabe been carrying on with his racist policies against his country’s white farmers? He is getting away with a policy of ethnic cleansing, the principal victims of which are the overwhelming majority of Zimbabwe’s black population. Zimbabwe was, after all, an agricultural country at one stage, and one that was among the few south of the Sahara capable of exporting its agricultural produce. Mugabe, in his madness, has reduced his people to a state of misery. Agriculture is collapsing and famine is becoming widespread. It is high time for effective action to be taken against him. In the same way as was Liberia’s Charles Taylor, Mugabe must be treated by the international community as one who has committed crimes against humanity and must be called to account for them. Africa is another place where policy must not be carried on with double standards."@en1
