lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I wish to express our relief following the decision by the Spanish Constitutional Court to allow the lists submitted by the coalition to be included in the Basque Country’s democratic elections. This decision was taken on appeal. It therefore overturned the decision of the Supreme Court, which had again banned the Basque nationalist left from standing in elections. Would it have been acceptable, at the very heart of the European Union, for citizens to have been deprived again of the right to vote for candidates whom they wished to support? Fortunately, Spain has chosen to stop travelling down this very dangerous road for European democracy. We can only be pleased about that, and we must call on to fulfil the objectives to which it has committed itself: an end to all political violence in the Basque Country and the disbandment of ETA. A new political climate is gradually emerging. Dialogue is difficult, but a desire for peace has been very clearly expressed. I should like the European Parliament to continue to pay close attention to this important development, because the Basque Country is at the very heart of Europe. It is essential for Europe that this peace process, which comes 10 years after the Northern Ireland one, receives support and that it can also run its course."@en1
