"Mr President, it is a disgrace for the European Parliament to receive the president of Colombia, Álvaro Uribe Vélez, tomorrow with honours. It is a disgrace for the socialists who made the proposal and for everyone who accepted it. Mr Uribe and his government, with the support of the USA, are responsible for the death of thousands of trade union farmers and other grass-roots fighters. They refuse ethnic reconciliation, they show contempt for the numerous recommendations of the UN Commission on Human Rights and they seek to suppress grass-roots dissatisfaction with military means. Mr Uribe's presence here shows that the European Union is moving towards getting involved in the ‘Columbia’ plan, through which the USA intervenes cruelly in this country, in an aim to achieve general control over the area.
We condemn all external intervention and call for all governments to stand by the side of the grass-roots forces in Columbia so that the bloodshed and the activities of the paramilitary forces stop, peace is protected and human rights are respected. We express the undivided solidarity of the Communist Party of Greece with the Columbian people who, we are sure, will win in the end."@en1
