lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Mr Horáček has just given voice to forthright and justified criticism of the Belgian Government’s weak-kneed attitude towards the Chinese when the Dalai Lama was compelled to cancel his attendance at the International Conference on Tibet on 11 May, one consequence of which was that the audience planned with MEPs belonging to the Tibet Intergroup had to be cancelled. On the following day – 12 May – I had the opportunity to meet the Dalai Lama in Leipzig at the presentation of a prize for peace optimism and civic spirit, when I told him how outraged I was at the way in which the Belgian Government had behaved. I should like expressly to thank you, Mr President, for your intervention. This House of ours is recognised around the world as the voice of human rights, and at no time will we allow ourselves to be deterred from speaking up for them, not even by economic pressure."@en1
