"I congratulate the rapporteurs who jointly produced this important piece of work, for which I voted in favour. The European Union must focus its efforts in relation to neighbourhood policy on an ongoing and attentive dialogue aimed at promoting universal values such as the rule of law, democracy, good governance and human dignity, according to the principles of conditionality and specificity, inasmuch as not all the processes are equal and must be treated differently according to the country concerned.
In particular, for the countries of the Southern Mediterranean, Europe must, in this period of transition, act as a credible interlocutor and as a guarantor of democracy and peace through its support for civil society. Involving young people and women in this process is therefore essential, as they have significant potential for the development of these societies.
Democratic changes must be vigorously supported by promoting cooperation and integration of the countries of these regions, with a view to removing the current obstacles, such as those impeding the free movement of people and goods. Europe must serve as an example, now and in the future, for thousands of young people who are waiting for concrete answers."@en1
