"Madam President, I voted for this resolution because the brutal repression against ordinary citizens is continuing in Syria. In recent months, the regime has already created more than 5 000 victims, according to UN estimates. We cannot idly watch this situation. The international community needs to take a stance, and it is the European Union’s duty to step up the measures to make Syria’s leaders halt the violence.
I welcome the EU decisions on the new restrictions being imposed on Syria, and I hope that they will achieve the anticipated result. With this in mind, it is important for the specific details to be defined as soon as possible so that the new sanctions can be implemented. I should stress how important it is to assess continually which measures are more effective. I welcome the positive role played by Turkey in terms of its response to the Syrian crisis, including its efforts to respond to humanitarian emergencies."@en1
