For the nth time, do not expect us to whitewash your exercises in hypocrisy and barefaced interference.
Among other aspects worthy of note, a majority in this Parliament has tried, in this resolution, through a tortuous exercise, to question what the OSCE Election Observation Mission has not questioned (for example, the democratic legitimacy of the elected parliament) and to urge use of the EU’s financial resources for operations of interference.
However, the fundamental issue concerns the kind of morals held by a Parliament that judges elections held in different countries on the basis of the geostrategic, political and economic interests of the EU’s major powers? I would remind you of the failure to recognise the results of the Palestinian elections... I would remind you of the exhortation of the results of the Georgian elections ... It is just pure cynicism.
What kind of morals does a Parliament have that insists on adopting a proposed Treaty that was rejected by the French and Dutch in 2005 and by the Irish in 2008, with total disregard for the democratic and sovereignly expressed will of these people?
What kind of morals does a Parliament have that, at this very sitting, has adopted a report that aims to impose the so-called ‘symbols of the Union’ when this Union does not legally exist and after these symbols have been removed from the text of the proposed Treaty?"@en1
