lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am probably the only Member here who has been to Kazakhstan recently – two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to see the situation for myself. I met the victims’ families and offered expressions of the deepest sympathy on behalf of the European Parliament. I met most of the prosecutors who are leading the investigation, and I met regional leaders, the new municipal authorities, independent non-governmental organisations and representatives of independent media. I would like to thank the Polish Embassy for this visit, but also the Kazakh Embassy, which made many of the meetings possible, and I would also like to thank the independent opposition for the meeting I had with them. What lessons can be learned from this? Well, we have the assurance of the Kazakh authorities that they will explain the circumstances of the tragedy in which innocent people were killed, and also that they will explain the circumstances of the tragic beatings inflicted on people who have been arrested. We have their assurances that these investigations will be conducted. We also have assurances about transparent, objective trials for those who have been arrested, among whom we are most concerned about Mr Kozlov, Mr Vinyavskiy and Ms Amirova. This is very important. It seems to me that we should continue to monitor the situation concerning transparency. I would also like to say that I see this visit and this situation as a further step in democracy, but there is no democracy in Kazakhstan if truly objective trials are not given to those who have been arrested, and, in particular, to Mr Kozlov, Mr Vinyavskiy and Ms Amirova. I think Kazakhstan is taking a test of its democracy today. In my opinion, this democracy will be expressed by free media, by a free opposition and by a relaxation of certain restrictive laws which are in force today in Kazakhstan."@en1
