"Mr President, I would echo the words of my group colleague, Mr Romeva i Rueda, and emphasise everything that he and others have said on the situation in East Timor.
Here we are again in an urgency debate in which the few Members present will largely agree that it is bad that bad things are happening somewhere in the world. The Commissioner will doubtless largely agree with us. Though I would suggest – and I would ask the Commissioner for his view – that it would be useful for the Council to be represented in these debates in order to make them that little bit more relevant and meaningful.
As I say, I emphasise and reiterate the views of Mr Tannock and Mr Romeva i Rueda about the situation in East Timor. This motion for a resolution has a number of concrete steps that we ourselves can take to alleviate the situation in that troubled part of the world. It is tragic that a country has regained its independence in order to collapse into such anarchy and that, so many years later, it is still not that much further forward. We have a number of ideas in this motion for a resolution to help alleviate that and I hope we will be acting on them."@en1
