"Mr President, the Strategic Partnership Agreement between the EU and Russia is very important for developing and stepping up cooperation between the two. Russia’s accession to the World Trade Organisation in December is also a significant matter for Europe as a whole. It will improve economic relations and promote investment. Security of energy supply is one of the biggest challenges that Europe faces. We need to cooperate with Russia. The EU must speak with one voice when it negotiates with Russia. The relationship must be based on mutual advantage and common values. European values are represented by democracy and freedom of speech. The Duma elections in Russia have not fulfilled the requirements of democracy, according to observers. Information that has come to light regarding election fraud is extremely worrying. The European Union is in a difficult situation, because cooperation with Russia in energy and trade is vital for all of Europe, but, at the same time, the distortion of democracy does not fit in with European values. This matter should not be swept under the carpet."@en1
