"Mr Berman, you will be aware that we have concluded an agreement with Colombia. I expect this agreement to be brought before the European Parliament at some point over the next year, at which point you should have your say.
I am convinced, personally, that this agreement can help to stabilise peace in Colombia. In other words, I believe that the economic progress that will surely result from the agreement can make a positive contribution. I know that there are problems with human rights. Indeed, it is stated explicitly in the agreement that the observance of human rights is one of the material elements of the agreement and that, if we –or you – determine that these human rights are being systematically violated, we will have the ability to immediately terminate the agreement without giving any further justification.
Overall, I believe that this agreement can make a positive contribution. I am convinced that the Colombian Government is acting in good faith in its efforts to curtail and eliminate violations of human rights. I am also convinced that, if problems should present themselves, we have included precisely the right tools in this agreement to do something about them."@en1
