"In the Treaty on European Union, the Member States pledged to safeguard the principles of democracy and respect for human rights. Clearly all candidate countries must have satisfied these conditions before negotiations begin, but this does not imply indifference to conditions outside the EU. The last few years have been extremely dramatic for Tibet and the people of this nation have given a strong and succinct message: after 50 years of Chinese occupation, Tibetans are calling on the world for real change – a change that includes dialogue with the Chinese leadership, not an intensification of violence. The strategic partnership between the European Union and the People’s Republic of China should be based on common principles and values: the latter’s great economic dependence on exports ‘Made in China’ and the importance China attaches to its international reputation can influence such a change, if we make the effort. To guarantee respect for the fundamental rights of citizens, freedom of speech and association and the release of political prisoners, we need to take concrete action."@en1
