"Mr President, our primary duty in the struggle to protect the civilian population, refugees and prisoners of war in Chechnya is to do everything to finally bring the war in Chechnya to an end. This should also be uppermost in the mind of the parliamentary delegation due to travel to the war zone over the coming weeks. Only a political solution to all the issues connected with the conflict and reconstruction of the region will guarantee a change in the awful situation faced by the people in the towns and villages which have been destroyed, in the refugee camps and in the prisoner of war camps.
I should also like to warn against judging just one side and apportioning blame solely to the Russian side. It is clear, including from the report by the Council of Europe delegation, that human rights have been violated and war crimes committed by all the warring factions. They must be investigated and the guilty must be called consistently to account. But we should also give the competent Russian authorities the chance to do this themselves."@en1
