lpv:translated text	"The events taking place in innumerable Arab countries, especially Tunisia and Egypt, are demonstrations that will go down in the history of peoples’ liberation from authoritarian regimes that do not respect the basic rules of a democratic society: the rule of law and the defence of human rights. I think that it will now be important to rethink the short- and long-term strategies for Tunisia and Egypt in the long process of the transition to democracy, to prevent extremist groups from coming to power. I welcome the EU mission in Tunisia to evaluate the legal situation in the stage prior to elections and the observation mission for those elections: identical measures must be taken as soon as stability is achieved in Egypt. Nevertheless, I consider it extremely important to revise the neighbourhood policy, which we have witnessed failing to commit to one of its goals: the promotion of democracy and human rights. I think that there should be greater diversity of approach in the Euro-Mediterranean agreements, which should have a direct effect on civil society. Dialogue with Tunisia, Egypt and their neighbouring countries must pursue the aim of guaranteeing democratic stability. In order to achieve this, strategies must be created and the resources available for the necessary socioeconomic and political reforms must be increased."@en1
