"I welcome the firm stance our House took today in relation to a situation that has existed in Tibet for decades but deteriorated significantly a month ago. Defending our values – both European and universal – means that silence is out of the question: I thus fully support the condemnations of the ‘brutal repression visited by the Chinese security forces on Tibetan demonstrators’ as well as ‘all acts of violence from whichever source’ that have taken place in recent days. Parliament also makes a number of requests to the Chinese authorities, calling on them, in particular, to authorise an independent international inquiry into the violence in Tibet, to open a constructive dialogue without preconditions with the Tibetans, to release immediately the peaceful demonstrators and all dissidents arrested in China, and to honour the human rights commitments it made to the IOC and to the world in 2001. Finally, the resolution calls on the EU heads of state or government to adopt a common position on their participation in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games."@en1
