lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, in 1996 I was a member of the Lithuanian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe when Russia made a solemn commitment to withdraw its troops from Moldova in 1997. Therefore, 2007 offers us an opportunity to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of that unfulfilled European commitment by Russia – one of many, of course. That could be a good time to write and publish a big book of Russia’s unfulfilled international commitments. That is my first proposal to this House as it strives to obtain new commitments. Russia’s policies in partitioning its smaller neighbours have caused loss and suffering to the people and several nations are still asking us to help. Can we continue to utter empty mantras in the style of the United Nations, while washing our hands of the hordes of refugees expelled from Abkhazia by invading Russians? It is worth noting here the small note in Security Council Resolution No 1666 of 31 March 2006, on the eventual changes in the mandate of the CIS peacekeeping force in Georgia. In reality, the force is Russian and has little to do with peacekeeping, but is helping in the annexation of a population given en masse the passports of one foreign country before the land is subsequently annexed. If you really want peace in that part of Europe, we need real, possibly European, peacekeepers in South Ossetia and Abkhazia. The alternative should be to rename these current peacekeepers ‘criminality keepers’. That is my second proposal to Parliament: to make a choice between real peacekeepers and official ‘criminality keepers’."@en1
