"Mr President, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, speaking as a Swedish Conservative, I welcome the Irish Presidency. It is a new European Union that, in six months’ time, you will hand over to the next country to hold the Presidency. With enlargement occurring during your Presidency, the EU will increase in importance and its words will count for more. Ireland has great confidence in the work for peace. You took the initiative, helped find a solution to the protracted internal conflict in Ireland and helped normalise the situation there. In spite of what was said at the last EU-Russia summit, I now appeal to you and the Irish Presidency to make use of the confidence you enjoy and to exploit the European Union’s growing importance by taking the initiative to promote a genuine peace dialogue between the parties involved in the war in Chechnya with a view to bringing the atrocities to an end. The war in Chechnya is a focus for the spread of terrorism. It is an abomination for both Russia and Europe, and the war may have far-reaching consequences for peace in our part of the world. Mr President-in-Office of the Council, what you can bring about in terms of peace and freedom in Europe will be greeted with endless gratitude on the part of the peoples of the European Union."@en1
