"Mr President, the situation in Mali and the current conflict between Sudan and South Sudan make it clear how fragile the national borders in Africa are. This is because they are artificial, colonial boundaries. Nevertheless, I agree that we need territorial integrity, democracy, the rule of law and borders that do not change. However, if we want to achieve all of this, we will have to be creative.
Just as we have developed a Roma policy in Europe at the initiative of Mr Orbán and of Hungary, we also need a Tuareg policy in North Africa for peoples who live a life which involves moving across national borders. We must establish regions and we need cross-border neighbourhood policies which bring peoples from similar cultures together, without calling into question the integrity of the states. There is a great deal for the African Union to do here, with our support."@en1
