"Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, we in the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe support and thank the rapporteur for the outstanding work she has accomplished in committee, sometimes in circumstances that can hardly be described as relaxed. Trade between the European Union and the Palestinian Authority is minimal. We are certainly a long way from achieving the full potential of this relationship, and who knows when we will also be able to implement the sections relating to fishing, considering the dual illegality the Gaza Strip is subject to: the illegality of the blockade by the Israelis and the illegality of the control exercised by Hamas over the Strip. However, we are finally taking full responsibility for our relations, we are making international trade a fully-fledged instrument of foreign policy and above all we recognise the Palestinian Authority as a negotiating partner with full rights. Paradoxically we are doing this while at the same time, at the UN headquarters in New York, we are dragging our feet on the question of recognising its independence. Let us now hope for rapid implementation with good will shown by all sides. This should include ensuring we do not grant the products of the Jewish colonies any kind of special trade privileges, either as products declared as Israeli or as Palestinian products."@en1
