lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the Republic of Lithuania has recently adopted an Education Act which changes the education system in such a way that there are fears that a significant number – at least half, and maybe more – of the Polish schools in Lithuania may be closed. This is a further example of discrimination against the Polish national minority which has lived in the country for centuries, going back many generations. After the introduction of a ban on writing Polish names using the Polish spelling and a ban on the use of Polish place names, and even instances of Poles being penalised for using their own language, we are dealing with a further instance of discrimination, this time affecting education. This is all the more lamentable since there is no conflict between the peoples of the two countries, and yet the Lithuanian authorities are irresponsibly igniting and fuelling such a conflict, which may have extremely adverse effects. We concern ourselves with violations of human rights in various places around the world, and yet such regrettable developments are taking place right here in the European Union. It is high time that the European Union looked into this matter. It is a disgrace, not only for Lithuania, but for the European Union as a whole. Thank you."@en1
