"Madam President, on 10 December, when we celebrated Human Rights Day, the streets of Moscow, St Petersburg, Vladivostok, Kaliningrad and 88 other cities in Russia were in a state of ferment on account of a series of peaceful protests. The people of Russia were calling for the annulment of the rigged elections of 4 December. The ALDE Group expresses its solidarity with the people of Russia in their legitimate call for human rights and civil liberties to be respected, and for free and fair elections.
Human rights are universal everywhere; therefore, the EU must avoid a differentiated approach to different countries. We must be consistent in our statements and policies. The European Union stands, first and foremost, for human rights and democracy, and that is precisely why those values must be reflected as an integral part in all our policies, as well as in our partnerships with third countries."@en1
