lpv:translated text	"Mr President, it is an incredibly serious crisis we have in Kosovo regarding the Roma. A week ago, I was involved in a live television debate with the OSCE's representative for the Roma population, who is monitoring the situation. I regret to have to say that his appeal to the effect that the EU should do something about the Roma’s situation, such as arrange a special meeting, has fallen on deaf ears. We know that people are being thrown out of hospitals and exposed to various forms of violence if they belong to the Roma population. The profound appeal I am making to the Commission and the Council is therefore as follows: help arrange a special meeting where the Roma’s situation can be discussed. Try to obtain a proper monitoring of the situation and demonstrate that all the international organisations which are on the scene in Pristina want to do something about the issue, for example by calling a meeting of the kind that the OSCE’s special rapporteur has been seeking (but without receiving any support). This could be extremely significant in showing the path we are to go down. I hope that the present Commissioner, Mr Nielson, will present this message to Mr Hombach and his colleagues in Pristina and Thessaloniki."@en1
