"The report by the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the European Parliament on ‘human rights in the world’ cynically expresses the imperialist policy of the ΕU. It endeavours to present it like a global trustee and defender of human rights, an 'exporter' of democracy to the world.
The EU's respect for and devotion to human rights and democracy was experienced at first hand by the people of former Yugoslavia, by Afghanistan, by Iraq, by Palestine and so on, who have been drenched in blood by the imperialists of the ΕU, the USA and ΝΑΤΟ, in the name of human rights.
It uses human rights and their selective, so-called protection as a pretext which gives it the right to intervene in every corner of the planet. Through the European Initiative for Democracy and Human Rights (ΕΙDHR) it finances 'coloured revolutions' and all sorts of submissive NGOs in order to coerce and undermine governments of countries which do not comply with its strategic aims.
The references in the report to poverty, the environment, employment rights and so forth are an insult to the peoples groaning beneath imperialist sovereignty and capitalist exploitation.
The Kommounistiko Komma Elladas voted against the report, denouncing the insulting hypocrisy of the ΕU and the selective use of human rights as a means of imperialist pressure and even of unleashing wars against peoples."@en1
