I voted in favour of adopting the resolution on the situation in Syria, Yemen and Bahrain in the context of the situation in the Arab world and North Africa. Those taking part in peaceful demonstrations in the countries of North Africa and the Middle East are calling for institutional, political, economic and social reforms, all with the aim of creating democratic countries where corruption and nepotism will be fought and human rights and the observance of fundamental freedoms will be promoted. They also want to eliminate the huge social inequalities and create better economic and social conditions. In today’s resolution, Parliament expresses its concern at the situation in these regions, and calls for concrete steps to be taken to prevent further dramatic events. In particular, the European Neighbourhood Policy faces new challenges in connection with the countries neighbouring us to the south. The European Union and the Member States themselves have decided to provide support for initiatives taken by governments which are genuinely committed to carrying out political and economic reforms and to supporting civil society. At the same time, the European Commission and the EU Council must apply a ‘more for more’ policy, on the basis of which actual progress in the field of democracy and human rights will be rewarded."@en1
