"Mr President, exactly two weeks ago I had the opportunity of visiting South Ossetia as part of a European Parliament delegation. It appears that in this troubled area of the South Caucasus there are at least 10 confrontations every day involving the use of firearms. The peace-keeping forces deployed there by Russia were supposed to guarantee peace for the local people and indeed for the whole of that area of the South Caucasus. According to the information provided to us by the Finnish head of the OSCE detachment, Major Lehtonen, the Russian peace-keeping forces are not, however, taking any steps to identify the underlying causes of these confrontations and if necessary pursue the individuals who are provoking them. I would therefore like to draw the attention of this House to the fact that it is unacceptable to allow such an important part of our continent to remain under the sole control of a single military peace-keeping force. We should strive to ensure that in future the European Union has greater influence over how the situation in South Ossetia is controlled."@en1
