"Mr President, the debate has started on improved relations with Kazakhstan. A new partnership agreement would certainly benefit both sides, given that Kazakhstan is an important partner in Central Asia and could become even more important.
However, progress in negotiations must go hand in hand with progress in political reforms in that country. It is vital that the necessary reforms be introduced in order to create an open and democratic society. Respect for fundamental rights is a non-negotiable value for the European Parliament and we shall continue to insist on that in every way possible.
Free and fair elections, the right to strike, independent information and trade unions are questions of strategic importance to Europe and the authorities in Kazakhstan need to understand that.
I should like to ask the High Representative to make it clear to the other side during the negotiations that there is no question of our making concessions on our values and principles."@en1
