"Mr President, last week an informal delegation of MEPs visited Palestine and Israel. We also visited the Gaza Strip. What we saw there has aroused in me a great feeling of outrage and strong feelings of sympathy towards the occupied Palestinian nation. The outrage I feel is shared by United Nations agencies which are active in that region.
Mr President, I can see only one way out of this situation: a Palestinian State should be established very quickly and unconditionally. In 1948, when their country was founded, the Jewish people did not ask the Palestinians for their consent. Today, Israel must not obstruct the will of the Palestinian people. I repeat: unconditional and urgent assistance should be provided to an oppressed nation, thus putting an end to this old conflict.
I believe that such measures would strengthen peace in the whole world, but, above all, we should do it simply because the Palestinians deserve their own State."@en1
