Mr President, today the European Parliament is condemning the military coup in Fiji by the military junta on 5 December. The coup was in breach of the constitution, contrary to the rule of law, and against the democratic system developing in Fiji. The latest elections there, held in May this year, were approved by EU observers as being properly conducted.
The coup d’etat is seriously undermining the Fijian economy, primarily in the tourist sector. We should act promptly now, in particular by suspending non-humanitarian aid to Fiji under Article 96 of the Cotonou Agreement, and by imposing an EU travel ban on members of the junta, their families and their staff. We must do everything we can to help democracy and civil society to deal with the current military coup d’état and restore democracy."@en1
