lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am extremely disappointed in the way that the hands of the main representative of the common foreign policy, Baroness Ashton, have been tied in the negotiations with regard to the crisis in the Middle East. Standing side by side with those who are fighting for democracy and freedom should be a foregone conclusion for us in Europe. Our common Parliament and our common Union are the result of our endeavours never again to have to experience the horrors that totalitarian systems bring. With this motion for a resolution, we want to accept our share of the responsibility for this and show that we are willing to support the fight for democracy and freedom in the Middle East. It is therefore even more regrettable to see that the Commission and the Council have not been able to accept their share of the responsibility. We are seeing the winds of change sweeping through the Middle East. People there are calling for help and it is our duty to provide that help. Specific measures are needed on our part in the form of the provision of food, medicine and aid workers. This is needed now. At the same time, of course, we must help to build democratic societies that have legal certainty in Tunisia and Europe. Half of the Member States in our Union have gone from dictatorships to democracy and freedom. What is so difficult about saying that the same should be the case for people in the Middle East?"@en1
