"Mr President, I was not going to take the floor on this, but because the Dalai Lama will visit my country next Thursday and will speak in my own constituency in the University of Limerick, where I am sure he will have much to say on this and other issues. Obviously, the behaviour of the Nepalese home ministry in confiscating ballot boxes is totally reprehensible. As for what happened in Kathmandu – a place renowned in song and story, and that even makes it sadder – up to 10 000 votes were not allowed to be counted. All we can hope is that we in the European Union, by expressing our voice unanimously, can bring some pressure to bear, not just in Nepal, but on their masters, the Chinese, to try and be a little more understanding, especially in relation to Tibet and the Dalai Lama. Finally, I want to say that he will be as welcome in Ireland as the Queen of England and President Obama, who are also coming."@en1
