lpv:translated text	"With his populist and hard-line nationalist rhetoric, President Ahmadinejad is causing great damage to Iran’s image and reputation. He is also threatening moderate Islam in the West and spreading negative stereotypes about it. We have to take decisive action against such provocation. In sentencing Roxana Saberi, the Iranian regime has demonstrated that it is essentially weak and cowardly. In its verbal confrontation with the United States, it chooses to take hostages, in this case a woman and a journalist, in order to mobilise its people ideologically. It is making a mockery of all democratic standards. Fundamental human rights form the bedrock of the European Union, as does the fight for the right to information. The fourth estate, that is the media and the press, are an important tool in restoring democratic standards. Any power which is afraid of the press will first strike against them. Non-democratic regimes remain in perpetual fear, which is why they persecute journalists, imprison and torture them, and even kill them."@en1
