"In mid-March, it will be one year since the Syrian people began taking to the streets daily to protest against the current regime and demand greater democracy. It will also be one year since Bashar al-Assad began clinging to power, completely immune to the demands of his people, by using all means at his disposal to crush the democratic aspirations of the Syrian people. According to United Nations estimates, more than 5 000 Syrians have been killed and tens of thousands imprisoned. For all these reasons, I voted for this resolution, which condemns this brutal repression by the Syrian authorities and Russia’s and China’s blocking of the UN Security Council resolution on Syria. In this way, we reaffirm Parliament’s full support for the Syrian people and call for a political solution to end the violence as quickly as possible."@en1
