"− Mr President, my thanks to the Commissioner for his very important explanations on that last point. We held a long discussion in committee as to how the origin of products from the settlements will in fact be established because, as far as numerous colleagues are concerned, both in my and in other political groups, these products come from the settlements and we would be rewarding illegal settlement. These clarifications are indeed reassuring and we thank you for them. At the end of this debate, I should like to thank my colleagues for the debate and for the truly huge opportunity that this report and the agreement reached give the Palestinian people. I believe that the entire House agrees that this agreement is the first step towards the development and prosperity of a people which has suffered immensely over recent years. The principle on which this report is based is that it must not become an agreement that holds hostage other agreements that need to move forward on a separate track. In other words, the Palestinians must not be held hostage yet again to other issues. Each issue has its own specific weight: we discussed this and tried to ensure that this agreement will be evaluated and will proceed as a stand-alone agreement. This is a huge opportunity for the Palestinians and for the Middle East and a first – albeit small – step towards peace. Once again, my thanks to my colleagues for the opportunity which we, as the European Union, are offering the Palestinian people."@en1
