lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, let us note the absence of the Commission and of the Council. I regret to have to say that this motion for a resolution on Kosovo is quite unbelievable. Once again we are suffering from total amnesia. We are acting as if everything that has taken place in Yugoslavia over the last ten to twelve years did not take place. We are allowing Mr Kostuníca to let the Serbian people remain in ignorance of everything that Milosevic kept from them for the previous ten years, namely the events in Vukovar, in Sarajevo, in Kosovo, even quite recently, just eighteen months ago. I find this perfectly unacceptable. All eyes are on Belgrade. I understand, Mr President, Mrs Pack, the need to assist the new Serbian authorities in tackling the problems which exist, but this cannot be done at the expense of justice – or a modicum of justice – i.e. by failing to challenge and condemn the actions of Mr Milosevic and the main Serbian leaders. Nor can this be achieved while closing our eyes to a situation which is perfectly intolerable in terms of international law. The 700 Kosovars still detained in Serbia were sentenced in absolute contravention of the laws of the international community. Only UNMIK and the international tribunal in The Hague would be authorised to sentence these people. An amnesty would therefore not be valid, and I would urge the responsible parties within the Commission to refer the matter, with all due discipline, to the competent Commissioners. There is no need to pressure Mr Kostuníca to grant an amnesty, all he has to do is to hand over the parties concerned to the head of the United Nations Mission in Kosovo, Mr Hækkerup."@en1
