lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the fact that the Kenyan authorities welcomed the President of Sudan with open arms in August has led Parliament, through our resolution this afternoon, to reaffirm certain very firm principles that we hold dear. Like any other country, Kenya is bound by compliance with international law. As such it should have facilitated the arrest of Omar al-Bashir, a leader – as has been said – against whom an international arrest warrant has been issued by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide in Darfur. As if we needed reminding, there were over 300 000 innocent victims in Darfur. That said, there are other African countries that have behaved in exactly the same way towards the Sudanese President: Libya, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, to name but a few. Europe must therefore have a single policy – firmness – towards the complicity of the African Union, which has advised its member states not to arrest the president. This House must remain vigilant and call on the European Union, and Baroness Ashton in particular, to put this respect for international law and human rights before any other consideration by, of course, making it a major topic on the agenda of the forthcoming European Union-African Union summit to be held on 29-30 November in Libya."@en1
