lpv:translated text	"I supported this recommendation, outlining our expectations of the future EU Special Representative for Human Rights. The promotion of human rights and democracy worldwide is at the heart of EU action. It is its its strength and its ambition. We have been waiting for a long time for this post to be created, under the authority of the High Representative/Vice-President. Nothing now stands in the way of the appointment to this post. This is the second major innovation in European diplomacy after the creation of the European External Action Service (EEAS). I shall keep a watchful eye to ensure that it is not an umpteenth honorary position, for then it would be an empty shell. To my mind, the representative must have maximum visibility, effectiveness and capacity for action. He or she will be the face and the power of the EU in its quest to root out any denials of democracy and of individual freedoms and violations of human rights. I have also expressed my desire for our Parliament to be associated with the appointment procedure and to be informed of the actions of the representative. It is unimaginable for our Parliament, elected by the citizens, not to have any right of oversight of the results of the person who is to promote its values in the world."@en1
