"Fellow Members, Mr Barroso, Mr Topolánek, I should like to express my appreciation of the Czech government for its resolve to continue the evaluation of the political, moral and legal aspects of the crimes of the Communist regime that was begun under the Slovenian Presidency. The consequences of the Communist regime’s crimes are a repulsive scar on the face of Europe. However, under the influence of
European politicians still pretend not to notice it. That shows that Europe still lacks self-respect in the face of Russia’s authoritarian ideology. Unfortunately, for as long as the acts of Nazism are recognised as a crime against humanity but the crimes of the Communist regime of the USSR are excused, we have to face the fact that Europe and its historical truth is split between its eastern and western halves. Ukraine’s gas supply is cut off and Russian tanks enter Georgia. For so long, Europe’s common values remain nothing but a dream. I call on the Czech Presidency to carry out the resolve expressed in the Prague declaration."@en1
