"Mr President, last Sunday, local elections were held in Lithuania. The formation representing the Polish national minority achieved a major success, despite the fact that Poles in Lithuania have been subject to regular discrimination for years. Unfortunately, the land taken away by the authorities of the Soviet Union 50 years ago has not been returned to them. The opportunities for national education that are available to Poles who live there have been limited to a large extent. Their names are forcefully distorted; they are not allowed to write them down in accordance with the Polish spelling. Moreover – contrary to European standards and the regulations of the Council of Europe – they are not allowed to put up signs with town and street names in Polish. I appeal to the European Parliament to deal with the issue of Poles in Lithuania, because this is obvious discrimination against my fellow countrymen living there, which, and I emphasise this, runs contrary to European standards."@en1
