"Only those who have lived under the socialist system can fully understand the nations which experienced lack of personal freedom, lack of press and media freedom, or the difficult road these nations had to follow. I understand those who are today raising their concerns and speaking of the lack of respect for people’s rights and the multifaceted problems that Ukraine is grappling with today. Yet we must also acknowledge the small but positive changes, such as the recent democratic elections at which we, as representatives of the European Parliament, were observers.
I appeal for sensitivity to the situation of millions of citizens of Ukraine and hundreds of young Ukrainians. They are counting on the European Union, on our help in building democracy, and on our help in building a civil society. It is very easy to criticise, but as a Polish woman, I remember that we were once helped."@en1
