lpv:translated text	"Mr President, although I fully support the proposed resolution, I would just like to point out that the Council and the Commission are applying double standards in respect of the Eastern States. Here is a concrete example: the widely known and regular violation of human rights in Belarus and Russia. Russia, furthermore, is engaged in the genocide of a nation, which is something that is not happening even in Belarus. Nevertheless, the Council and the Commission treat the two States completely differently. The doors to European Union States have been slammed in Lukashenka’s face, yet President Putin is welcomed with open arms. If these double standards are only being applied because of Russia’s oil and gas, resources that Belarus does not have, then such a policy is immoral, although the European Union is supposed to be the standard-bearer of human rights, as well as moral policy. I do not believe that the Council and the Commission are unaware of the principles of moral policy; however, these principles should not be sold for oil and gas."@en1
