"Madam President, I too would like to explain why I supported this resolution and why I voted against certain parts of it. Firstly, I am also a co-author of this resolution, which is far from perfect, especially the part stated in clause two, which asserts that the legal proceedings against Tymoshenko constitute a violation of human rights. I do not think so and as a result I voted against that. I do, however, support the resolution as a compromise here in parliament, and I do so because this resolution offers to Ukraine, the government of Ukraine and the people of Ukraine a very clear European prospect. I strongly approve of clause one, in which it is stated that any European country that fulfils the criteria will one day be entitled to become a member of the European Union.
Of course I presume that Ukraine will continue its reforms and perform all of the obligations it has assumed, but another reason for which I support this resolution is that it states precisely that before the summit to be held at the end of this year, possibilities to continue negotiations will be reviewed."@en1
