"The first parliamentary contacts between the European Parliament and the ASEAN countries took place in 1976, but it was only in 1979 that regular meetings between Parliament and the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Organisation were inaugurated. They now take place annually, alternating in location between the EU and an ASEAN country. The Treaty of Amity and Cooperation in Southeast Asia, on which we are voting today, is designed to promote peace, stability and cooperation in the region, and provides for the peaceful resolution of disputes, the preservation of peace, conflict prevention and the development of security in Southeast Asia. In July 2007, ASEAN opened trade negotiations between the European Union and seven member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). In December 2009, the European Commission decided to conduct the negotiations on a bilateral basis. Currently, negotiations are being held with Singapore and Malaysia, but Vietnam has also signalled that it wishes to open a dialogue on this issue. Given the importance of this region for the EU, this morning’s signature is extremely important and formally confirms Europe’s desire for friendly relations with ASEAN."@en1
