"Mr President, we have a broad base for our activities in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Baroness Ashton referred to our two security sector reform missions: EUSEC and EUPOL. Measures like these will enable us to achieve a great deal, if the government also has the political will. In my view, we must continue to provide these missions.
However, I would like to focus on the elections and on what will happen afterwards. I would also like to give my warm thanks once again to Ms Nedelcheva for her report. She must have been braver than I was, for example, in Tunisia to make such clear statements about what was seen by the observers. In Tunisia, there was a strong man who very much wanted to remain president and there were also groups which had an interest in the situation staying unchanged.
If we look at the facts that we have gathered and the recommendations based on these facts, which will allow us to make a better job of things next time, and if we, and that includes the EU delegation in the country, see it as our homework to implement them, then we already have enough to do. I would like to see our delegation in Kinshasa and also those in other countries being kept up-to-date at regular intervals on the progress of implementing the recommendations and also making proposals as to what we can do here to encourage our partners in the DRC to do the same. That would be a challenge not only for the DRC but for all the countries where we have had electoral observation missions."@en1
