lpv:translated text	"Madam President, Commissioner, I would like to thank you for your reply. I have heard from the NGOs that attended the European Development Days that they were very satisfied with the initiative, and the resolutions that followed it, so congratulations as far as that goes. However, I am still not entirely satisfied. You say that the political situation in the Maldives is improving and that there is a roadmap there, but on the other hand is it not a bit too early – after all, we can describe the President as at least a semi-dictator – to offer him a place at such a forum, at such an important meeting? I think that we must be very careful in that respect and must not offer him a platform unless it is absolutely necessary. As for the other points, I do not of course underestimate the problems facing the Maldives. I think that they merit a great deal of attention, but once again we must be politically wise."@en1
