lpv:translated text	"I have on previous occasions spoken up for Tibetan nuns and monks in response to the shocking way in which they have committed suicide, by setting themselves on fire. However, this is not the only problem in the region. China has instigated many measures that threaten the Tibetan language, culture, religion, heritage and environment. Last December, Tibet’s leaders asked the EU High Representative to send EU diplomats to Tibet to investigate the situation for themselves. China blocked these moves. In my opinion, the European External Action Service should adopt a bolder stance with regard to the matter, as this concerns the dire human rights situation of countless numbers of people. Tibetan leaders have even said that if nothing is done soon, not even China can prevent an Arab Spring-type situation from happening. The EU should also raise the matter with the UN Human Rights Council. I therefore voted in favour of the motion for a resolution."@en1
