lpv:translated text	"I view the increasingly aggressive stance of the Israeli Government towards the Palestinian people with the deepest concern. The recent series of threats by the Israeli Government to expel Yasser Arafat, which culminated in the Deputy Prime Minister’s suggestion that he be assassinated, is totally unacceptable and despicable. The United Nations General Assembly has criticised the Israeli Government in this connection. The United States veto of a UN Security Council resolution to this effect (a vote from which, moreover, Germany and the United Kingdom abstained) is deplorable. The EU cannot simply, in the words of the statement by the Presidency of the European Union, express ‘its deep preoccupation’, ask ‘the Israeli Government to refrain from any use of force and, in particular, from the expulsion of President Arafat’, or consider the Israeli Government and the Palestinian people as equals. To do so is to ape the stance of the United States. It is essential to put significant pressure on the Israeli authorities with a view to ending the military occupation, the killings, the annexing of Palestinian territory, the building of the wall to control the movements of Palestinians, and, in general, the campaign of pure state terrorism being conducted against the Palestinian people. There is an urgent need to show solidarity with the Palestinian people. Peace will come only when the Palestinian people’s inalienable and widely-acknowledged right to their own independent, sovereign state becomes reality."@en1
