lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, the election of a democratic Palestinian parliament and the setting up of democratic institutions are the necessary preconditions for the establishment of a viable and sovereign Palestinian state which will live in peace and security next to a secure, peaceful and democratic Israel. Progressive, moderate forces in Palestine need to block the way to all the forces feeding the blind violence and clashes, to say no to the forces denying the existence of the state of Israel. It is these extreme Palestinian forces that are materially undermining the very prospects of the creation of a Palestinian state. All the political organisations have their place in the political system in Palestine. However, they have their place without weapons, without paramilitary approaches, without terrorist action. There needs to be – and I am calling today for – immediate intervention by the European Union and by you, Commissioner, for the release of the Palestinian parliamentary candidate in Jerusalem, Mrs Fadwa Khader, who was arrested and is now in jail. She needs and we call for her to be released immediately. I should like to touch on two major issues which relate to peace in Palestine and the Middle East: you referred to one, Commissioner, which is the drastic economic and social situation of the Palestinian people living in Gaza and the occupied West Bank. Your contribution is indeed important if this situation is to be rectified. However, there cannot be peace with poverty, with despair and with the marginalisation of the Palestinian people. This poverty, this marginalisation is the best ally of the extreme paramilitary organisations. The second issue relates to the unacceptable tactics which the Israeli authorities continue to apply to the occupied Palestinian territories, especially East Jerusalem. The illegal settlement is continuing, as are the de facto annexing of territory, the building of the wall and the compulsory purchase of Palestinian property. On 7 November, the Council of Ministers took certain decisions on East Jerusalem. On 12 December, the question of East Jerusalem was discussed again. I believe that the European Union should take immediate measures to respond to these unacceptable Israeli tactics. We should not feed the radicalisation of extreme Palestinian organisations any more and Israel bears a great deal of responsibility here."@en1
