"Madam President, 7 October last year will be remembered as a dramatic wake-up call to what is going on in Russia. On that day, Anna Politkovskaya, considered to be a living symbol of honest journalism, was brutally murdered. President Putin dismissed Anna Politkovskaya’s role as marginal and her case still remains unsolved. Last October in this House parliamentarians called on the Commission and the Member States to honour the legacy of Anna Politkovskaya by making the restoration of free media in Russia a primary condition for the further development of our relations, because, only if we send a clear signal that we value Anna Politkovskaya’s quest for truth and freedom more highly than oil and gas, will conditions in Russia start to change. There is no question that we in Europe share the values for which Anna Politkovskaya gave her life. Sadly Mr Putin does not seem to share these values. Respect for Anna Politkovskaya commits us to make this clear to President Putin in forthcoming summits."@en1
