"Article 1 of the Cooperation Agreement that the EU has concluded with Pakistan states: ‘Respect for human rights and democratic principles as laid down in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (...) constitutes an essential element of this Agreement.’ For this reason, I supported the submitted joint resolution in which Parliament requests the Commission, and the European diplomatic service in particular, to submit a detailed report on how Pakistan is complying with its commitment. It is clear that violations of human rights, particularly of women and Christians, occur every day in Pakistan. However, it is not entirely clear what the Commission, which is equally bound by the agreement in force, is doing or can do. Mechanisms are available to diplomacy that can be used in these cases. It is up to us to prove that human rights are important for Europeans not just on paper, but also in real life."@en1
