"I voted against this report because even though it is a technical measure, in my opinion, the subject of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has political implications. Indeed, I maintain that the EBRD, like the rest of the European Investment Bank (EIB), cannot provide financing for a country that does not respect the territorial sovereignty of an EU Member State and that even threatens the EU itself. I am referring, of course, to the age-old question of relations between Cyprus and Turkey. The European Union should send a strong message to Turkey, suspending all financing until the Cyprus question is resolved. We cannot and must not accept vetoes and ultimatums from Ankara, as was the case a few days ago on the issue of the future Cypriot Presidency of the European Union."@en1
