"Mr President, I would prefer it if, for once, we could have a debate on Latin America following well-prepared discussions in the committees, rather than it being part of some urgent procedure or other. It seems to me that we only ever deal with events in Latin America on a case by case basis, but otherwise pursue a very reticent policy. It is a shame, because the continent merits more attention. As far as Peru is concerned, a number of speakers, and also our resolution, have pointed to the fact that President Fujimori’s forthcoming resignation offers scope for a fresh start. I am not so sure whether this will be the case though, because there have already been one or two disturbing developments on this front, and I will only be convinced once Fujimori has actually stepped down or been voted out of office. I therefore think it is extremely important for the European Union to get fully involved with this country, and with the situation in Peru, for example by maintaining an orderly dialogue with the forces of opposition. I would like us to send the delegation that we wanted to send to the elections – which then failed to take place for reasons we are all familiar with – to Peru now, with a view to supporting those who are working towards democratic reform in the country. And if that were to be the outcome of this afternoon’s sitting, I would be more than satisfied."@en1
