lpv:spoken text	". Mr President, firstly I would like to thank the honourable Members for all their speeches. The Commission has been informed about the alleged destruction of artefacts in the Julfa Cemetery, in the Azerbaijani Autonomous Republic of Nakhichevan. Both Armenia and Azerbaijan delivered a statement at the 586th Meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council of 22 December 2005 and the issue was also discussed in the Council of Europe on 1 February 2006. The protection of World Cultural Heritage sites in third countries is not within the Commission’s competences. We understand, however, that Armenia appealed to UNESCO, asking for a mission to be sent to Nakhichevan as rapidly as possible. The Commission is well aware of the fact that episodes like the destruction in the Julfa Cemetery, if confirmed by independent sources, have a direct link with and are symptomatic of the long-standing conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, which has caused mistrust and destruction and claimed victims on both the Armenian and the Azerbaijani sides since the early 1990s. The Commission will continue to use all the means at its disposal to persuade the parties to find a quick settlement to the conflict and, once a peace deal is hopefully reached, assist in the reconstruction and the rehabilitation of the region. The conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh particularly unacceptable today in that both Armenia and Azerbaijan are part of the European Neighbourhood Policy, which aims, as a priority, to build confidence in the South Caucasus region, encouraging regional cooperation in as many sectors as possible and contributing to peace, stability and prosperity at the borders of an enlarged European Union. It is an ambitious objective that we will try to achieve, including through the implementation of the action plans that the Commission is currently discussing with Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. In these documents we ask the three South Caucasus countries to undertake a number of steps in order to come closer to Europe. The documents cover a very wide range of subjects, including cooperation on education and culture and the protection of cultural heritage. Implementation of the ENP action plans will be monitored closely by the Commission and the benefits which flow from these will of course be conditional on their achievements."@en⁴

Kommissionen er blevet underrettet om den påståede ødelæggelse af kulturværdier på kirkegården i Julfa, i den aserbajdsjanske selvstændige republik Nakhitjevan. Både Armenien og Aserbajdsjan afgav en erklæring under møde nr. 586 i OSCE's Permanente Råd den 22. december 2005, og spørgsmålet blev også drøftet af Det Europæiske Råd den 1. februar 2006. Beskyttelse af verdens kulturarv i tredjelande ligger ikke inden for Kommissionens kompetence. Vi forstår imidlertid, at Armenien har henvendt sig til UNESCO og anmodet om, at en mission sendes til Nakhitjevan så hurtigt som muligt. Kommissionen er fuldstændig klar over, at episoder som ødelæggelsen af kirkegården i Julfa, hvis den bekræftes af uafhængige kilder, er direkte forbundet med og symptomatisk for den langvarige konflikt om Nagorno-Karabakh, der har skabt mistillid og ødelæggelse og krævet ofre i både Armenien og Aserbajdsjan siden starten af 1990'erne. Kommissionen vil fortsat anvende alle tilgængelige midler til at overtale parterne til at finde en hurtig løsning på konflikten og, når der forhåbentlig er indgået en fredsaftale, medvirke til genopbygningen og rehabiliteringen af regionen. Konflikten om Nagorno-Karabakh er især uacceptabel i dag, da både Armenien og Aserbajdsjan er omfattet af den europæiske naboskabspolitik, hvis prioriterede målsætning er at opbygge tillid i Sydkaukasus gennem fremme af regionalt samarbejde i så mange sektorer som muligt og støtte til fred, stabilitet og velstand i et udvidet EU's randområde. Det er et ambitiøst mål, som vi vil forsøge at opfylde, bl.a. ved at gennemføre den handlingsplan, som Kommissionen i øjeblikket drøfter med Armenien, Aserbajdsjan og Georgien. I disse dokumenter beder vi de tre lande i Sydkaukasus om at træffe en række foranstaltninger med henblik på at komme tættere på Europa. Dokumenterne vedrører en lang række områder, herunder samarbejde omkring uddannelse og kultur og beskyttelse af kulturarv. Kommissionen vil nøje overvåge gennemførelsen af ENP-handlingsplanerne, og fordelene ved disse planer vil afhænge af de resultater, de opnår."@da² "Herr Präsident! Zunächst möchte ich den Damen und Herren Abgeordneten für ihre Redebeiträge danken. Die Kommission ist über die mutmaßliche Zerstörung von Kunstwerken auf dem Friedhof von Dschulfa in der aserbaidschanischen Autonomen Republik Nachitschewan informiert. Sowohl Armenien als auch Aserbaidschan gaben auf dem 586. Treffen des Ständigen Rates der OSZE am 22. Dezember 2005 eine Erklärung ab, und am 1. Februar 2006 wurde die Frage auch im Europarat diskutiert. Der Schutz der Stätten des Weltkulturerbes in Drittländern gehört nicht in den Zuständigkeitsbereich der Kommission. Wir haben jedoch Verständnis für den armenischen Appell an die UNESCO, möglichst rasch eine Mission nach Nachitschewan zu entsenden. Die Kommission ist sich wohl bewusst, dass Geschehnisse wie die Zerstörung auf dem Dschulfa-Friedhof, wenn sie denn von unabhängigen Quellen bestätigt werden, mit dem seit langem währenden Konflikt um Berg-Karabach, der seit Anfang der 1990er Jahre Misstrauen und Zerstörung verursacht und auf armenischer wie auf aserbaidschanischer Seite Opfer gefordert hat, im Zusammenhang stehen und symptomatisch für ihn sind. Die Kommission wird auch weiterhin alle ihr zur Verfügung stehenden Mittel nutzen, um die Parteien zu einer raschen Beilegung des Konflikts zu veranlassen und, wenn man dann hoffentlich zu einem Friedensabkommen gelangt, beim Wiederaufbau und der Wiederherstellung der Region Hilfe leisten. Der Konflikt um Berg-Karabach ist besonders jetzt nicht hinzunehmen, da sowohl Armenien als auch Aserbaidschan Teil der Europäischen Nachbarschaftspolitik sind, deren vorrangiges Ziel es ist, Vertrauen in der Südkaukasusregion aufzubauen, indem die regionale Zusammenarbeit in möglichst vielen Bereichen gefördert und ein Beitrag zu Frieden, Stabilität und Wohlstand an den Grenzen einer erweiterten Europäischen Union geleistet wird. Das ist ein ehrgeiziges Ziel, das wir uns zu erreichen bemühen und wozu auch die Umsetzung der Aktionspläne gehört, über die die Kommission gegenwärtig mit Armenien, Aserbaidschan und Georgien diskutiert. In diesen Dokumenten fordern wir die drei Länder des Südkaukasus zu einer Reihe von Schritten auf, um sich an Europa anzunähern. Die Dokumente decken ein ganz breites Themenspektrum ab, darunter die Zusammenarbeit auf dem Gebiet der Bildung und Kultur sowie des Schutzes des kulturellen Erbes. Die Umsetzung der ENP-Aktionspläne wird von der Kommission aufmerksam überwacht werden, und der daraus entstehende Nutzen wird natürlich von ihrer erfolgreichen Verwirklichung abhängen."@de⁹ "Κύριε Πρόεδρε, κατά πρώτον, θα ήθελα να ευχαριστήσω τους αξιότιμους κυρίους βουλευτές για όλες τις ομιλίες τους. Η Επιτροπή έχει ενημερωθεί σχετικά με την εικαζόμενη καταστροφή των μνημείων στο νεκροταφείο της Julfa, στην Αυτόνομη Δημοκρατία του Ναχιτσεβάν στο Αζερμπαϊτζάν. Τόσο η Αρμενία όσο και το Αζερμπαϊτζάν προέβησαν σε δήλωση κατά την 586η συνεδρίαση του Μόνιμου Συμβουλίου του ΟΑΣΕ στις 22 Δεκεμβρίου 2005 και το θέμα συζητήθηκε επίσης στο Συμβούλιο της Ευρώπης την 1η Φεβρουαρίου 2006. Η προστασία των τοποθεσιών Παγκόσμιας Πολιτιστικής Κληρονομιάς σε τρίτες χώρες δεν εμπίπτει στις αρμοδιότητες της Επιτροπής. Κατανοούμε, ωστόσο, ότι η Αρμενία απηύθυνε έκκληση στην UNESCO, ζητώντας να σταλεί μια αποστολή στο Ναχιτσεβάν όσο το δυνατόν πιο γρήγορα. Η Επιτροπή έχει πλήρη επίγνωση του γεγονότος ότι επεισόδια όπως η καταστροφή στο νεκροταφείο της Julfa, εφόσον επιβεβαιώνονται από ανεξάρτητες πηγές, συνδέονται άμεσα και είναι ενδεικτικά της μακροχρόνιας διαμάχης για το Ναγκόρνο-Καραμπάχ, η οποία έχει προκαλέσει δυσπιστία, καταστροφές και εικαζόμενα θύματα τόσο από την πλευρά της Αρμενίας όσο και από την πλευρά του Αζερμπαϊτζάν από τις αρχές της δεκαετίας του 1990. Η Επιτροπή θα συνεχίσει να χρησιμοποιεί όλα τα μέσα που έχει στη διάθεσή της για να πείσει τις δύο πλευρές να καταλήξουν σε μια ταχεία διευθέτηση της διαμάχης αυτής και, όταν αισίως επιτευχθεί μια ειρηνευτική συμφωνία, θα βοηθήσει στην ανοικοδόμηση και στην αποκατάσταση της περιοχής. Η διένεξη του Ναγκόρνο-Καραμπάχ είναι ιδιαίτερα απαράδεκτη σήμερα, επειδή τόσο η Αρμενία όσο και το Αζερμπαϊτζάν είναι μέρη της Ευρωπαϊκής Πολιτικής Γειτονίας, η οποία έχει ως πρωτεύοντα στόχο να εδραιώσει την εμπιστοσύνη στην περιοχή του Νοτίου Καυκάσου, ενθαρρύνοντας την περιφερειακή συνεργασία σε όσο το δυνατόν περισσότερους τομείς και συμβάλλοντας στην ειρήνη, στη σταθερότητα και στην ευημερία στα σύνορα μιας διευρυμένης Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης. Πρόκειται για ένα φιλόδοξο στόχο, τον οποίο θα προσπαθήσουμε να επιτύχουμε και με την εφαρμογή των σχεδίων δράσης που συζητά αυτή τη στιγμή η Επιτροπή με την Αρμενία, το Αζερμπαϊτζάν και τη Γεωργία. Στα έγγραφα αυτά ζητούμε από τις τρεις χώρες του Νοτίου Καυκάσου να προβούν σε συγκεκριμένες ενέργειες, προκειμένου να προσεγγίσουν περισσότερο την Ευρώπη. Τα έγγραφα αυτά καλύπτουν ένα ευρύτατο φάσμα θεμάτων, όπως τη συνεργασία στην παιδεία και τον πολιτισμό και την προστασία της πολιτιστικής κληρονομιάς. Η εφαρμογή των σχεδίων δράσης της Ευρωπαϊκής Πολιτικής Γειτονίας θα παρακολουθείται στενά από την Επιτροπή και τα οφέλη που θα προκύψουν από αυτά θα εξαρτηθούν ασφαλώς από τα επιτεύγματά τους."@el¹⁰ ". Señor Presidente, en primer lugar quiero dar las gracias a sus Señorías por sus intervenciones. La Comisión ha sido informada de la supuesta destrucción de monumentos en el cementerio de Djulfa, en la república autónoma azerbaiyana de Najicheván. Tanto Armenia como Azerbaiyán presentaron el 22 de diciembre de 2005 una declaración en la 586Ş reunión del Consejo Permanente de la OSCE y también se discutió la cuestión en el Consejo de Europa del 1 de febrero de 2006. La protección del Patrimonio Cultural Mundial situado en terceros países no entra dentro de las competencias de la Comisión. Pero entendemos que Armenia acudió a la UNESCO pidiendo que se enviara una misión a Najicheván lo más rápidamente posible. La Comisión sabe bien que episodios como la destrucción del cementerio de Djulfa, si la confirman fuentes independientes, es sintomática y guarda una relación directa con el largo conflicto de Nagorno Karabaj, que ha causado desconfianza y destrucción y se ha cobrado víctimas tanto armenias como azerbaiyanas desde principios de los años noventa. La Comisión seguirá utilizando todos los medios a su alcance para persuadir a las partes de que encuentren una resolución rápida al conflicto y, cuando finalmente se llegue a un acuerdo de paz, ayudar a la reconstrucción y rehabilitación de la zona. El conflicto de Nagorno Karabaj es especialmente inaceptable hoy, cuando tanto Armenia como Azerbaiyán forman parte de la Política Europea de Vecindad, cuyo objetivo prioritario es crear confianza en la región del Cáucaso Meridional, fomentando la cooperación regional en el máximo de sectores posible y contribuyendo a la paz, la estabilidad y la prosperidad en las fronteras de una Unión Europea ampliada. Es un objetivo ambicioso que intentaremos alcanzar, incluso mediante la implementación de los planes de acción que la Comisión discute actualmente con Armenia, Azerbaiyán y Georgia. En esos documentos pedimos a los tres países del Cáucaso Meridional que se comprometan a tomar medidas para acercarse más a Europa. Los documentos abarcan una gama muy amplia de temas, como la cooperación en educación y cultura y la protección del patrimonio cultural. Implementation of the P action plans will be monitored closely by the Commission and the benefits which flow from these will of course be conditional on their achievements."@es²⁰ "Mr President, firstly I would like to thank the honourable Members for all their speeches.

Arvoisa puhemies, ensiksi haluan kiittää parlamentin jäseniä kaikista puheenvuoroista. Komissiolle on tiedotettu kulttuuriperinnön tuhoamisesta, jonka väitetään tapahtuneen Djulfan hautausmaalla, Azerbaidžaniin kuuluvalla Nakhitševanin autonomisella alueella. Sekä Armenia että Azerbaidžan antoivat molemmat 22. joulukuuta 2005 pidetyssä ETYJ:n pysyvän neuvoston 586. kokouksessa lausunnon, ja asiasta keskusteltiin myös Euroopan neuvostossa 1. helmikuuta 2006. Unionin ulkopuolisissa maissa sijaitsevien maailman kulttuuriperintökohteiden suojelu ei kuulu komission toimivaltaan. Käsittääksemme Armenia kuitenkin vetosi Unescoon ja pyysi lähettämään valtuuskunnan Nakhitševaniin mahdollisimman pian. Komissio tietää erittäin hyvin, että Djulfan hautausmaan tuhoamisen kaltaisilla tapahtumilla – jos riippumattomat lähteet vahvistavat ne todeksi – on suora yhteys Nagorno-Karabahia koskevaan pitkäaikaiseen konfliktiin ja ne ovat suoraa seurausta siitä. Konflikti on aiheuttanut epäluottamusta ja tuhoa ja vaatinut uhreja sekä Armenian että Azerbaidžanin puolelta 1990-luvun alkupuolelta lähtien. Komissio pyrkii jatkossakin kaikin käytössään olevin keinoin taivuttamaan osapuolet etsimään selkkaukseen nopean ratkaisun. Kun rauhansopimus on toivottavasti saatu tehtyä, komissio osallistuu alueen jälleenrakentamiseen ja kunnostamiseen. Nagorno-Karabahin konfliktia ei voida hyväksyä missään tapauksessa, sillä sekä Armenia että Azerbaidžan ovat osa eurooppalaista naapuruuspolitiikkaa, jonka tarkoituksena on ensisijaisesti lisätä luottamusta Etelä-Kaukasuksen alueella, kannustaa alueelliseen yhteistyöhön mahdollisimman monella alalla ja edistää rauhaa, vakautta ja hyvinvointia laajentuneen Euroopan unionin rajoilla. Tämä on kunnianhimoinen tavoite, jonka yritämme saavuttaa myös toteuttamalla toimintasuunnitelmat, joista komissio keskustelee parhaillaan Armenian, Azerbaidžanin ja Georgian kanssa. Näissä asiakirjoissa pyydämme kyseisiä kolmea Etelä-Kaukasuksen maata toteuttamaan toimenpiteitä lähentyäkseen Euroopan unionia. Asiakirjat kattavat monia eri aiheita, muun muassa koulutus- ja kulttuuriyhteistyön ja kulttuuriperinnön suojelun. Komissio seuraa tarkkaan eurooppalaiseen naapuruuspolitiikkaan kuuluvien toimintasuunnitelmien täytäntöönpanoa, ja suunnitelmista saatavien etujen edellytyksenä on tietenkin maiden edistyminen."@fi⁷ ". Monsieur le Président, je voudrais tout d’abord remercier les députés pour leurs interventions. La commission a été informée de la destruction présumée d’artéfacts dans le cimetière de Julfa, situé dans la république autonome azerbaïdjanaise de Nakhitchevan. L’Arménie et l’Azerbaïdjan ont tous deux fait une déclaration à l’occasion de la 586e réunion du Conseil permanent de l’OSCE du 22 décembre 2005 et le problème a également été abordé lors du Conseil de l’Europe le 1er février 2006. La protection des sites appartenant au patrimoine culturel mondial dans des pays tiers ne relève pas des compétences de la Commission. Nous comprenons toutefois que l’Arménie ait lancé un appel à l’Unesco pour demander l’envoi d’une mission au Nakhitchevan au plus vite. La Commission est bien consciente du fait que des événements tels que la destruction du cimetière de Julfa, s’ils sont confirmés par des sources indépendantes, ont un lien direct avec le conflit de longue date autour du Nagorno-Karabakh, dont ils sont symptomatiques et qui sont une source de défiance et de destruction, ainsi que de victimes du côté tant arménien qu’azerbaïdjanais depuis le début des années 90. La Commission continuera d’utiliser tous les moyens à sa disposition pour persuader les parties de parvenir à un règlement rapide du conflit et, une fois qu’un accord de paix aura été atteint, pour soutenir la reconstruction et la réhabilitation de la région. Le conflit sur la question du Nagorno-Karabakh est particulièrement inacceptable aujourd’hui, car l’Arménie et l’Azerbaïdjan sont tous deux englobés dans la politique européenne de voisinage qui vise, en priorité, à instaurer un climat de confiance dans la région du Caucase du Sud, en encourageant la coopération régionale dans un maximum de secteurs et en contribuant à la paix, à la stabilité et à la prospérité aux frontières de l’Union européenne élargie. C’est un objectif ambitieux que nous essaierons d’atteindre, au travers notamment de la mise en œuvre de plans d’action que la Commission est actuellement en train de discuter avec l’Arménie, l’Azerbaïdjan et la Géorgie. Dans ces documents, nous demandons aux trois pays du Caucase du Sud de prendre un certain nombre de mesures en vue de se rapprocher de l’Europe. Les documents couvrent de très nombreux sujets, parmi lesquels la coopération en matière d’éducation et de culture et la protection du patrimoine culturel. La mise en œuvre des plans d’actions de la politique européenne de voisinage sera surveillée de près par la Commission et les avantages découlant de ces plans dépendront évidemment des résultats obtenus."@fr⁸ "Mr President, firstly I would like to thank the honourable Members for all their speeches.

La Commissione è stata informata della presunta distruzione di manufatti nel cimitero di Giulfa, nella Repubblica autonoma azerbaigiana di Nakhichevan. Sia l’Armenia che l’Azerbaigian hanno rilasciato il 22 dicembre 2005 una dichiarazione in occasione della 586a riunione del Consiglio permanente dell’OSCE e l’argomento è stato anche discusso in seno al Consiglio d’Europa il 1° febbraio 2006. La protezione dei siti che rappresentano un patrimonio culturale mondiale nei paesi terzi esula dalle competenze della Commissione. Sappiamo tuttavia che l’Armenia si è appellata all’UNESCO chiedendo che venga inviata quanto prima una missione nel Nakhichevan. La Commissione è perfettamente consapevole del fatto che episodi come la distruzione del cimitero di Giulfa, se confermati da fonti indipendenti, sono sintomatici e direttamente legati al perdurante conflitto sul Nagorno-Karabakh, che ha causato sfiducia e distruzione, oltre a mietere vittime da parte sia armena che azerbaigiana sin dall’inizio degli anni ’90. La Commissione continuerà a utilizzare tutti i mezzi a sua disposizione per persuadere le parti a ricercare una rapida composizione del conflitto e, una volta auspicabilmente raggiunto un accordo di pace, assisterle nella ricostruzione e nel risanamento della regione. Il conflitto sul Nagorno-Karabakh è inaccettabile soprattutto oggi, in quanto sia Armenia che Azerbaigian partecipano alla politica di prossimità dell’Unione europea, politica prioritariamente volta a creare fiducia nella regione del Caucaso meridionale incoraggiando la cooperazione regionale in tutti i settori possibili e contribuendo alla pace, alla stabilità e alla prosperità ai confini di un’Unione europea allargata. E’ un obiettivo ambizioso che cercheremo di conseguire anche attraverso l’attuazione dei piani di azione che la Commissione sta attualmente discutendo con l’Armenia, l’Azerbaigian e la Georgia. In tali documenti, chiediamo ai tre paesi del Caucaso meridionale di intraprendere una serie di passi per avvicinarsi all’Europa, e i documenti trattano un ampio ventaglio di temi, tra cui la cooperazione in materia di istruzione e cultura, nonché la salvaguardia del patrimonio culturale. La Commissione vigilerà costantemente sull’attuazione dei piani di azione relativi alla politica di prossimità dell’Unione europea e i benefici che ne risulteranno saranno ovviamente subordinati ai risultati conseguiti nel loro ambito."@it¹² "Mr President, firstly I would like to thank the honourable Members for all their speeches.

It is an ambitious objective that we will try to achieve, including through the implementation of the action plans that the Commission is currently discussing with Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. In these documents we ask the three South Caucasus countries to undertake a number of steps in order to come closer to Europe. The documents cover a very wide range of subjects, including cooperation on education and culture and the protection of cultural heritage. Implementation of the ENP action plans will be monitored closely by the Commission and the benefits which flow from these will of course be conditional on their achievements."@mt¹⁵ ". Mijnheer de Voorzitter, allereerst wil ik de geachte afgevaardigden bedanken voor al hun uiteenzettingen. De Commissie is op de hoogte gesteld van de vermeende vernieling van kunstvoorwerpen op het kerkhof van Djulfa in de Azerbeidzjaanse Autonome Republiek Nachitsjevan. Zowel Armenië als Azerbeidzjan heeft een verklaring afgelegd tijdens de 586e vergadering van de Permanente Raad van de OVSE op 22 december 2005, en de kwestie is ook aan de orde gekomen tijdens de Raad van Europa op 1 februari 2006. De bescherming van wereldcultuurbezit in derde landen behoort niet tot de bevoegdheden van de Commissie. We begrijpen echter dat Armenië een beroep heeft gedaan op UNESCO om zo spoedig mogelijk een missie te sturen naar Nachitsjevan. De Commissie is zich terdege bewust van het feit dat voorvallen zoals de vernieling op het kerkhof van Djulfa, indien bevestigd door onafhankelijke bronnen, rechtstreeks verband houden met en symptomatisch zijn voor het langdurige conflict over Nagorno-Karabach, dat heeft geleid tot wantrouwen en verwoesting, en dat sinds de vroege jaren negentig slachtoffers heeft geëist onder zowel de Armeense als de Azerbeidzjaanse bevolking. De Commissie zal haar uiterste best blijven doen de partijen ertoe te bewegen snel tot een oplossing van het conflict te komen, en zodra er een vredesovereenkomst is bereikt, zal zij helpen bij de wederopbouw en het herstel van de regio. Het conflict over Nagorno-Karabach is op dit moment wel bijzonder onaanvaardbaar, omdat zowel Armenië als Azerbeidzjan deel uitmaken van het Europees nabuurschapsbeleid, dat als speerpunt heeft het opbouwen van vertrouwen in de zuidelijke Kaukasus, waarbij regionale samenwerking in zoveel mogelijk sectoren wordt aangemoedigd en wordt bijgedragen aan vrede, stabiliteit en welvaart aan de grenzen van een uitgebreide Europese Unie. Het is een ambitieuze doelstelling, maar wij zullen proberen die te verwezenlijken, ook door de tenuitvoerlegging van de actieplannen die de Commissie momenteel bespreekt met Armenië, Azerbeidzjan en Georgië. In deze documenten vragen wij de drie landen in de zuidelijke Kaukasus een aantal stappen te nemen om nader tot Europa te komen. De documenten gaan over een zeer breed scala aan onderwerpen, waaronder samenwerking met betrekking tot onderwijs en cultuur en de bescherming van cultureel erfgoed. Tenuitvoerlegging van de ENP-actieplannen zal nauwgezet worden gemonitord door de Commissie, en de voordelen die eruit voortvloeien zullen uiteraard afhankelijk zijn van de prestaties."@nl³ "Mr President, firstly I would like to thank the honourable Members for all their speeches.

The protection of World Cultural Heritage sites in third countries is not within the Commission’s competences. We understand, however, that Armenia appealed to UNESCO, asking for a mission to be sent to Nakhichevan as rapidly as possible. The Commission is well aware of the fact that episodes like the destruction in the Julfa Cemetery, if confirmed by independent sources, have a direct link with and are symptomatic of the long-standing conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, which has caused mistrust and destruction and claimed victims on both the Armenian and the Azerbaijani sides since the early 1990s.

A Comissão foi informada da alegada destruição de artefactos do cemitério de Djulfa, na República Autónoma de Nakhichevan, no Azerbeijão. Tanto a Arménia como o Azerbeijão fizeram uma declaração no 586º encontro do Conselho Permanente da OSCE, em 22 de Dezembro de 2005, tendo o assunto sido discutido igualmente no Conselho da Europa, em 1 de Fevereiro de 2006. A protecção dos locais do Património Mundial Cultural nos países terceiros não é da competência da Comissão. Sabemos, porém, que a Arménia apelou para a UNESCO, solicitando o envio, o mais brevemente possível, de uma missão a Nakhichevan. A Comissão tem consciência de que episódios como a destruição do cemitério de Djulfa, se confirmados por fontes independentes, estão directamente associados ao prolongado conflito sobre Nagorno-Karabakh, de que são sintomáticos, que deu azo a desconfiança, destruição e que, desde o início de 1990, fez vítimas tanto do lado da Arménia como do Azerbeijão. A Comissão vai continuar a usar de todos os meios ao seu dispor para persuadir as partes envolvidas a encontrarem uma rápida solução do conflito e, uma vez alcançada a paz, esperemos, ajudar à reconstrução e à reabilitação da região. O conflito sobre Nagorno-Karabakh é hoje particularmente inadmissível, uma vez que tanto a Arménia como o Azerbeijão são parte na Política Europeia de Vizinhança que visa, como prioridade, criar confiança na região do Cáucaso Meridional, encorajando a cooperação regional num número de sectores tão elevado quanto possível e contribuindo para a paz, estabilidade e prosperidade nas fronteiras de uma União Europeia alargada. Trata-se de um objectivo ambicioso que vamos tentar alcançar, inclusive através da implementação de planos de acção que a Comissão está actualmente a discutir com a Arménia, o Azerbeijão e a Geórgia. Nestes documentos, pedimos aos três países do Cáucaso Meridional que adoptem algumas medidas tendentes a aproximarem-se mais da Europa. Os documentos cobrem uma vasta série de assuntos, entre os quais a cooperação no domínio da educação, da cultura e da protecção do património cultural. A implementação dos planos de acção no âmbito da PEV será vigiada de perto pela Comissão, sendo, evidentemente, os benefícios deles decorrentes condicionados pelos seus resultados."@pt¹⁷ "Mr President, firstly I would like to thank the honourable Members for all their speeches.

Jag vill börja med att tacka parlamentsledamöterna för deras inlägg. Kommissionen har informerats om den påstådda vandaliseringen av konstföremål på kyrkogården i staden Djulfa i den azerbajdzjanska autonoma republiken Nachitjevan. Armenien och Azerbajdzjan gjorde båda ett uttalande vid det 586:e mötet i Europeiska säkerhets- och samarbetsorganisationens (OSSE) ständiga råd den 22 december 2005, och frågan diskuterades också i Europarådet den 1 februari 2006. Skyddet av de platser i tredjeländer som utsetts till världskulturarv ingår inte i kommissionens behörighet. Vi har emellertid förståelse för Armeniens vädjan till FN:s organisation för utbildning, vetenskap och kultur (UNESCO) om att en delegation snarast ska skickas till Nachitjevan. Kommissionen är väl medveten om att incidenter som vandaliseringen av kyrkogården i Djulfa – om den bekräftas av oberoende källor – står i direkt samband med och är ett utslag av den långvariga konflikten om Nagorno-Karabach som dels har bidragit till att föda misstro och orsaka vandalisering, dels har skördat offer på både den armeniska och azerbajdzjanska sidan sedan början av 1990-talet. Kommissionen kommer även i fortsättningen att utnyttja alla till buds stående medel för att övertala parterna att komma fram till en snabb lösning av konflikten och kommer, när en fredsöverenskommelse förhoppningsvis väl har uppnåtts, att hjälpa till vid återuppbyggnaden och återupprustningen av regionen. Konflikten om Nagorno-Karabach ter sig särskilt stötande i dagsläget, eftersom både Armenien och Azerbajdzjan ingår i den europeiska grannskapspolitiken som i första hand syftar till att bygga upp förtroendet i Sydkaukasien genom att främja regionalt samarbete inom så många sektorer som möjligt och därmed bidra till fred, stabilitet och välstånd vid det utvidgade EU:s gränser. Det mål som vi kommer att försöka uppnå är långtgående och innefattar genomförandet av de handlingsplaner som kommissionen för närvarande diskuterar med Armenien, Azerbajdzjan och Georgien. Vi uppmanar i dokumenten de tre länderna i Sydkaukasien att vidta en rad åtgärder i syfte att närma sig Europa. I dokumenten tas ett mycket brett spektrum av ämnen upp, bland annat samarbete på kultur- och utbildningsområdet samt skydd av kulturarvet. Kommissionen kommer på nära håll att övervaka genomförandet av handlingsplanerna inom den europeiska grannskapspolitiken, och de positiva effekter dessa ger hänger givetvis samman med om målen uppnås."@sv²¹
