"Mr President, I shall state briefly that this situation is much more complex than people think. I myself signed the resolution, but I could not regard it as the most urgent of all.
It is regrettable that, for some people, in some countries, the Arab Spring has become a cold snap for human rights, and I personally understand the concern of the UAE leadership at the events in Egypt.
The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt achieved victory through the democratic process, but the outlook for the future there is questionable. Are they interested in pursuing democracy and good governance or in pursuing political control? Human rights groups in Egypt have expressed their concern about aspects of the new constitution because it diminishes women’s rights and is unclear as to who falls within the scope of Sharia law and who does not.
Therefore, this House must closely monitor, in its entirety, everything that emerges from the Arab Spring from every angle."@en1
