lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I am speaking on behalf of the Socialist Group. We support the joint resolution, but, at the same time, I would endorse Mr Casaca's comments that we should not be widening this resolution outside of its original terms. Therefore, we will not support the two amendments by the Liberals and the Greens. Of course the PSE Group condemns the cowardly 'twin towers' bombings of the Gateway of India and of the Zaveri Bazaar in Mumbai on 25 August 2003 that killed and injured so many people. Under no circumstances can any terrorist attack that targets civilians, resulting in the loss of innocent lives, be accepted by the international community. These terrorist bombs were clearly designed to cause maximum civilian causalities, to destabilise Indian society and weaken the Indian economy. Yet members of both the Hindu and Muslim communities in India died in the attack and worked together in the rescue efforts. We have seen a degree of restraint that we have to welcome. At the same time, we welcome the statement by the Pakistani Foreign Minister expressing sympathy with the victims and their families. We urge the Commission, the Council and this Parliament to do all they can to ensure that the current between India and Pakistan is not damaged by these incidents."@en1
