"Madam President, we are always looking for effective ways to influence countries which are outside the European Union – influence which would bring about a change and a decision to uphold human rights. These ways should never affect the population or humanitarian aid, but we must seek an intelligent way of putting pressure on the regime of President Mugabe which would mean that situations such as that of Farai Maguwu will never happen again.
On the issue of the protection of human rights, this is a question of our fundamental credibility. Here, we must say clearly ‘Yea, yea; Nay, nay’. Human rights are being upheld or they are not. We must not content ourselves with small advances. I have the impression that in some of the speeches there was an element of satisfaction with small advances. We have said clearly: the government of President Mugabe does not have any legitimacy and its actions are worthy of condemnation – and we should say this most explicitly."@en1
