". For various reasons, the Persian Gulf region is of strategic importance for the European Union, particularly in terms of energy supply. The European Union wants to enter into closer cooperation with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) – an organisation made up of the six richest nations in the region – with the conclusion of a free trade agreement forming a key component of that process. I voted in favour of this report, which prepares the ground for future cooperation between the Union and the GCC. Covering all of the issues relevant to such a partnership, such as the rights of minorities, women’s rights, freedom of conscience and expression, but also support for the Israeli-Palestinian peace process and areas for strategic partnership such as research, education and fossil and renewable fuels, the motion proposed by my colleague, Mr Baudis, has achieved a fairly broad consensus among the political groups. However, recent events in Bahrain have given rise to concerns as to whether the report is sufficiently up-to-date. Goodwill on all sides has resulted in some excellent compromise oral amendments being negotiated, thereby bringing the report up to date and ensuring that months of hard work have not been in vain."@en1
