lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Baroness Ashton, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your statement. It has to be admitted that we have been waiting for it for several months already. This delay has critically deferred the adoption of the respective reports by the European Parliament, and it has also delayed the report on human rights by Mr Howitt, to which you referred. Your statement has highlighted a wide range of problems, but I fail to see there what is mentioned in the title of the statement, namely, ‘raising effectiveness’. Nor can we see either how to resolve these problems or the specific mechanism, which we could also gladly work on in our further cooperation. The priority mentioned in the statement – the reform of the judiciary – is extremely important in my view, yet here as well, a need exists for effectiveness in our activities, because although we have been talking about such blatant cases as those of Khodorkovsky and Magnitsky in Russia for several years … – Ms Ashton, I should really like you perhaps to listen to what we are saying too. Ms Ashton, we would like you to listen to us a little bit – ... we have not moved in this direction by a hair’s breadth. Human rights have a very important role in the world. We have experienced ‘the Arab Spring’, and democratic elections are crucial in this respect. I should like to see these rights to be more strongly stated in the case of Russia, too. I should like you to express a stronger joint EU stance in response to the calls for help that 80 000 people are addressing to us, so that we should have no double standards; so that we respond to election violations in Russia as we do to violations in Kyrgyzstan, where I had the honour to lead the mission, in Belarus and in Ukraine. Double standards do no honour to our human rights policy. Thank you."@en1
