"I am voting for this motion for a resolution and would stress the importance of the Member States of the European Union maintaining common positions on key issues that will be debated in the United Nations Human Rights Council; specifically, on freedom of expression online, on the rights of children, and on torture and arbitrary detention in Syria, Libya, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Burma/Myanmar, Iran and Côte d’Ivoire. I would stress the importance of the Member States bringing their positions together at mini-councils on foreign policy, so as to always ensure a single European Union standpoint internationally. I believe the European Union’s credibility depends on its ability to speak with one voice. In addition to this tactical issue, there is a particular need to extol the issue of the principles underlying these debates: human dignity and human rights should always come first and guide the EU’s stance in international politics."@en1
