"(
Mr President, two weeks ago, this Parliament adopted a brave political resolution, appealing – amongst other things – for the creation of a no-fly zone over Libya. Just one week ago, when the United Nations Security Council had not yet approved this resolution, we held another sitting where we were feeling rather desperate due to the imminent fall of Benghazi and ultimately the collapse of the revolution which is in favour of democracy in Libya. Last Thursday, one day later, the resolution was approved and it has been four days since its implementation.
Mr President, I think it is important that we continue to implement this resolution and carry on supporting the Libyan people, while at the same time protecting them from further massacres and helping them in their transition towards democracy.
We also need to tackle two other issues. First of all, we need to keep on providing extensive humanitarian aid to the Libyan people and to refugees fleeing Libya, particularly to Tunisia and Egypt. Secondly, we need to prepare for a possible mass exodus of refugees toward European Union countries. After all, this is not just the responsibility of Mediterranean EU countries but of us all."@en1
