"Mr President, today the Swedish Government received a legal opinion on the case of Dawit Isaak who has been imprisoned for nine years in Eritrea. Dawit Isaak is a Swedish journalist who has been imprisoned for freedom of expression. According to legal opinion based on the European Convention of Human Rights and the case-law from the European Court of Human Rights, Sweden, the EU Member States and the EU have a duty to use all available diplomatic and legal means to ensure Dawit Isaak his basic rights. Eritrea is one of the world’s poorest countries and dependent on aid from the European Union. We have to demand Dawit Isaak’s immediate release in exchange for financial aid. Tomorrow, Dawit Isaak’s brother will come to the European Parliament to meet the President of Parliament and Commissioner Piebalgs and to hand over the legal opinion to the European institutions. I hope this will oblige the European institutions to put greater pressure on Eritrea’s President to release Dawit Isaak, thus saving his life."@en1
