"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the Amazonian countries are confronted with illegal mining, which is synonymous with the ecological and social violation of indigenous territories, with tragic consequences. At the end of August an NGO, provided information concerning the massacre by miners of several dozen Yanomami Indians on Venezuelan territory. Today, however, the Venezuelan Government believes there to be no evidence. Since then, voices have been raised, including that of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, denouncing the lack of will on the part of local authorities to conduct an investigation and calling for an in-depth investigation. I hope that the European Union will expressly call on the Venezuelan Government to shed light on this tragedy to the fullest extent. However, those of us who are directly concerned, through our overseas territories, send a strong message calling for the full recognition of the rights of indigenous people. Starting today, let us put an end to the illegal exploitation of mineral and forest resources."@en1
