"Madam President, Baroness Ashton, ladies and gentlemen, it was quite right of Mr Brok to say that in the past, many of us have criticised you on a number of initiatives.
We shall not do so this time and that is because we recognise that the presence of the High Representative is something of an innovation which, by helping the European Union to take a common stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, could be crucial in effecting a change for the better in the conflict.
We therefore hope that you are aware and can feel the support of Parliament and, as Mr Pöttering rightly said, we know what we want. We want an agreement based on the existence of two democratic and sovereign states, whose peoples can live within secure and internationally recognised borders. What we are still lacking are negotiations with clear dates and clear conclusions. All democratic countries know that peace will be achieved when the Palestinian state is created, but we also know that this can only come to pass through proper peace talks.
The Palestinian state cannot exist without peace, and proclaiming its existence today would only mean ending peace talks and opening a new phase of internal conflict."@en1
