"Madam President, first of all I too should like to take my turn in thanking VĂ©ronique de Keyser and Eduard McMillan-Scott for the effort they made, together with the other MEPs, during their mission. The election count confirmed Hammas as the first political power and this result must be respected. At the same time, the result should not come as a surprise. It is the consequence of numerous factors both local and international. The Palestinians, despite the pronouncements of the West, have unfortunately not yet seen the objective of creating their own independent state being promoted. However, they have seen the racist policy of the wall and settlement being legalised. The result constitutes a message both to the Palestinians themselves and to the international community, especially us, about our inadequate policy, which failed to exert pressure on Israel to apply the road map and the UN resolutions in order to promote a political process and was content merely to support the Palestinians financially. Unfortunately, I am not sure if we were able to receive these messages, given that today a resolution which is one-sided and unilateral is being promoted in the European Parliament. Our reaction to the new government cannot be to stop efforts to restart the peace process, as announced by the United States. At the same time, Hammas needs to denounce violence, recognise the right of the state of Israel to exist and cooperate with President Abbas in continuing the peace process. At the same time, reconfirmation is needed, both by the European Union and by the other members of the Quartet, of the undertaking to create an independent Palestinian state next to the state of Israel with East Jerusalem as its capital."@en1
