lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, at a time of spiralling disaster in Zimbabwe, many of us are alarmed at reports that the EU Presidency intends to invite Robert Mugabe to the proposed EU-Africa Summit in Lisbon. Mugabe, of course, bears personal responsibility for the Zimbabwean tragedy and tops the list of Zimbabweans banned from travel to EU countries under the EU’s targeted sanctions. Parliament understands the importance of the Summit, but has made its view clear, most recently in its resolution of 26 April when it called on the Council ‘to ensure that no banned persons are invited to or attend the planned EU-Africa Summit in Lisbon in December’. If the EU is to have any credibility, it must at least stand by its own sanctions policies. It is disappointing there is no representative of the Council here, Mr President, but can I ask you strongly to reaffirm Parliament’s declared policy to the Council."@en1
