". Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the list of tragedies in Cambodia is very long indeed: crimes against the environment, stratospheric corruption, waste of international aid, aggression against human rights activists, and a very shrewd dictator, who plays with democracy to give himself a semblance of legitimacy and who is still there. Now there is also the issue of the leader of the opposition, who is exiled from Cambodia. Yet I believe there is also another misfortune in that country, and that is an international community that is too obliging, and I have to say that that includes the European Union. Accompanying Graham Watson during our delegation’s visit to Cambodia, we felt that the Commission’s attitude was not sufficiently firm and robust. In Parliament, there is a robustness in the various debates on Cambodia that I would like to see in the other institutions too. Within the framework of European cooperation, I think it important to reflect on the case of Sam Rainsy who, among other things, won, through the efforts of the European People’s Party, an important human rights prize here in this institution. Perhaps that is the acid test, to try to have him return before the elections."@en1
