"Madam President, it is good that we are having this debate today. I, too, would like to pay my compliments to Baroness Ashton. What I am particularly pleased about is that we in the European Parliament now seem to have come up with a robust joint text, a text which recognises and states that the Palestinians have a right to their own state, based on the 1967 borders, and that Israel and its citizens are entitled to security. Madam President, we want the UN to come up with an answer to this legitimate application by Mahmoud Abbas during its 66th session – therefore, before the year is out – because we do not want to send the Palestinians home empty-handed and we cannot allow this to happen.
However, there is one thing which I am disappointed not to see in the resolution. What will Europe and the international community do if Israel continues to build settlements as, indeed, it has announced it will in East Jerusalem? Mr Pöttering has already spoken about this. What do you make of these acts of provocation? Does that mean that you will also leave open the possibility of us taking unilateral action?"@en1
