"Over recent months, Syria and Egypt have been undergoing a critical period in the transition to democracy, facing serious difficulties and considerable challenges in this process of social stability and economic development. I would like to voice my complete solidarity with the Egyptian and Syrian peoples, and I hope that the authorities will succeed in identifying the perpetrators of and those responsible for the attacks against Christian communities. I also believe that it is crucial that the authorities respect the public’s fundamental rights, especially freedom of association, freedom of peaceful assembly, freedom of expression, and freedom of religion, conscience and thought for all citizens. I am voting for this resolution of the European Parliament on the situation in Egypt and Syria, on which it is essential that the EU take a clear and unequivocal position by strongly condemning the murder of protestors. I also believe that the EU should adopt measures in cases of serious human rights violations, and it should also make way for the adoption of new aid measures aimed at supporting both peoples in their progress towards a peaceful democratic transition."@en1
