"Thank you for giving me the floor. I would like to take this opportunity to denounce the Burmese
and the electoral commission acting on its orders, which last week announced the dissolution of the National League for Democracy, as well as of nine other political organisations. The leader of the National League for Democracy, Mrs Aung San Suu Kyi, is a laureate of the Sakharov Prize awarded by the European Parliament. She supports dialogue between the
and the opposition, as she proved in 2000 when she negotiated with generals on the gradual withdrawal of the military from political life. Unfortunately, the talks did not lead to a breakthrough.
The elections due to take place in Burma in November will be the first since 1990, when the military
refused to accept the crushing victory of the opposition and placed Mrs Aung San Suu Kyi under house arrest. The European Parliament should clearly signal our opposition to the military regime, the violations of human rights and the lack of respect for fundamental civil liberties in Burma."@en1
