lpv:translated text	"This document concerns the 2010 Annual Report on Human Rights in the World. The document is geared towards deepening the EU’s intervention policies, towards turning the idea of human rights to the EU’s advantage, towards silence on crimes against human rights – which we also understand to include social, cultural and economic rights – committed by countries allied to the US and EU, and towards advocating enhanced mechanisms enabling the EU to step up its interventionism rapidly. As with previous annual reports, there is absolutely no mention of the flagrant human rights violations in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, occupied Cyprus or Western Sahara, in which EU Member States and/or their allies – the US, Israel, Turkey or Morocco – have played a leading role. On Libya, they only regret not having intervened sooner and they praise the ‘Arab Spring’. The stance of intervening in the domestic affairs of other countries shamelessly rears its head with the assertion of the need to use various means – particularly financial – to promote ‘transition’ to democracy, so as ‘to support civil society capacity for democratic opposition ... in a mutually safe and, where necessary, deniable manner’. Obviously, we voted against this hypocritical use of the concept of ‘human rights’."@en1
