lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I would like you to ask Mr Cox, the President of Parliament, to raise with the Commission the situation regarding Mrs Radia Nasrawi, who has just completed five weeks on hunger strike in protest at the intolerable human rights situation in Tunisia. She is one of the leading human rights activists in that country. Her life has been made unbearable by the activities of the Tunisian authorities, who oppose her human rights work. This situation is one which has been repeated many times over in relation to other human rights activists. I would particularly like the Commission to ensure that the European Union representative in Tunisia makes direct contact with the Tunisian authorities in writing, insisting that the human rights of Mrs Radia Nasrawi and others in Tunisia be respected. The only European Union embassies to have taken a stand on this issue are those of the Netherlands and Finland. It is quite disgraceful that the European Union itself has not made its views known on this matter at this critical juncture for Mrs Radia Nasrawi."@en1
