lpv:translated text	". South Korea is one of the European Union’s key trade partners. It is also a country with which the European Commission has completed negotiations on a free trade agreement, giving both sides very broad access to the other’s market. In view of such close economic relations, I am surprised that the EU and Korea differ so greatly when it comes to respect for human rights. All Member States of the European Union are signatories to Protocol 13 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, which bans the use of the death penalty. What is more, the Union declares in the international arena that it has set itself the objective of working for universal abolition of the death penalty. In accordance with that declaration, the Union should express clear support for the movement in Korea which is working for the abolition of capital punishment. Let us hope that, first of all, a moratorium will be introduced on carrying out executions, and that the Korean Government will become actively involved in efforts to abolish the death penalty which are being made at the UN. Under new powers in the area of trade policy, we have the right and the obligation, as the European Parliament, to demand the abolition of capital punishment in all of the European Union’s partner countries."@en1
