lpv:translated text	"Mr President, my voice will also be one of praise for Baroness Ashton’s recent visit to Tunisia, and for her trip to Egypt next week. What can Europe do, as the previous speaker said? It is crucial to give a clear indication of our support for these countries at this point in time. Geography and history make Europe the natural ally of the countries in the Mediterranean region. This is the right time to let them know how important they are to us, how radical a change they have brought to our neighbourhood policy, and what high hopes we have for this new Mediterranean region engendered by the young people of Egypt and Tunisia, much to our surprise and disbelief. We should now support this transformation, as other speakers have said. Above all, we should do this by dismantling the machinery of repression –let us not forget that the dictatorship continues even though the dictator may have stepped down–, lifting the state of emergency and helping pro-democracy forces so that Europe can make a genuine contribution to this process, so that democracy can become truly consolidated and a new partnership can be established. What has been said about the need to adapt instruments is by no means gratuitous. The truth is that one page has been wiped and we are now moving on to a new one."@en1
