lpv:translated text	"Mr President, two days ago alerted us in the towns of France as we in the European Parliament seek to inform public opinion on Afghanistan. added that the European Community budget given to NGOs in Afghanistan was in sharp decline. I ask myself how we can receive representatives of the Afghan resistance, how we can support Afghan women – which I feel is a very positive thing – without going further and without having the means to express our indignation. I think that that is the purpose of this resolution, which is much better than the one we drafted two months ago, which I found rather weak, especially with regard to discrimination against women. Now, we seem able to talk about crime, about rape, about apartheid, about everything which reflects the situation of women nowadays. The current situation is difficult. It has perhaps been made worse by our support for Commander Massud, Afghan women and many others, as well as the entire Afghan population, which is dying of hunger. If, in future, however, the effect of our support were to worsen sanctions, to prohibit women from driving for the NGOs working on behalf of women and to close bread shops which enable women to work, to feed themselves and to feed others, we must do more. And to do more, as has already been said, is to call the countries supporting the Taliban to account. I believe that the European Community, the European Union, must not only give more money, it must know how to politically call to account those who support this regime and who allow this regime to survive. This is the logical outcome of our indignation and our support and it is also our responsibility. It is my hope that we stop confining ourselves to drafting resolutions which, even though each one is better than the last, are still too timid in relation to what we have to do for this suffering population."@en1
