"Mr President, the next Council is probably the last chance for Europe’s leaders to remember that we founded Europe in order to uphold values and to act together when fundamental issues are at stake. When a population finds itself at the mercy of a murderous leader, this is a fundamental issue. A resolution has been adopted thanks to the efforts by France and the United Kingdom. We have managed to stop Colonel Gaddafi from reaching Benghazi. However, Europe’s lack of unity is worrying. Tomorrow’s Council must send a strong signal; it must support the intervention that is under way, recognise the Libyan rebels in order to give them support and isolate Colonel Gaddafi even more so that this regime will fall. Fundamental issues are also at stake when we look at what is happening in Bahrain, Yemen and Syria. When we see the cycle of violence flaring up again in the Middle East, this too is fundamental. We the European Parliament expect Europe’s leaders to act before it is too late. History is on the move in much of the world. Political courage means taking up this challenge: this is precisely what we expect of Europe and of those in charge of it."@en1
