"Mr President, the agreement is good for the European Union, Colombia and Peru, given that it boosts development and combats poverty, and this is a good tool against social injustice, which is the best breeding ground for violence. We have also seen the willingness of the region’s governments to make progress in this area. Among the most significant indicators, I would highlight the ongoing and reciprocal dialogue about human rights, that was established voluntarily in 2009, and the ratification of fundamental International Labour Organisation (ILO) agreements. It is also necessary to mention the victims’ law, the return of land, the protection programme for those in danger, which already encompasses 11 000 people, and the increase in resources devoted to investigating the crimes of which union members and human rights campaigners have been victims. These actions significantly improve the quality of life of Peruvians and Colombians, although there is still a lot more left for us to do. That is the reason why I support the resolution, and I request that you assess these areas of progress and reject the risk of victimisation that the region’s citizens can suffer. They are also shaking off terrorism; let us not also punish them with reservations based on prejudices, because we could harm their progress towards peace, democracy and social and economic development."@en1
