"Mr President, we have in Europe fought for Zimbabwe’s independence for many years, where freedom and democracy are said to prevail, despite the colour of people’s skin. This democracy was to lead to an independent judicial system and separation of political and judicial powers. Twenty years after Zimbabwe’s independence, we can only establish that the Mugabe government has not achieved a great deal. The economy is in decline and, as for human rights, it is questionable whether the present situation is so much better than twenty years ago. But what is most surprising, is the fact that the rest of Africa, especially South Africa, is looking on in silence. My group is of the opinion that the European Commission must come down as hard on this regime as it did on any other regimes in southern Africa which rode roughshod over people’s rights. If not, this problem might well contaminate the rest of Africa, which could have disastrous consequences."@en1
