lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in Bahrain the ruling family has rejected reform for far too long, and like Saudi Arabia, which props it up, believes in the efficacy of repression. The Arab world is in the throes of irrepressible change, however, and not even Saudi Arabia is immune from the wind of change and from the thirst for democratisation and the aspiration for political, economic and social reforms. Last week, a tribunal in Bahrain sentenced 14 people, including 12 women, to six months in prison for having taken part in an illegal demonstration. The defendants were pronounced guilty of provoking chaos and panic in the population of Manama during a protest inside a shopping centre and were imprisoned for having taken part in a gathering of more than five persons. Since the middle of February, when the protests in Bahrain against the Sunni monarchy began, hundreds of people have been arrested. The main opposition parties have put forward a peaceful solution to the political crisis taking place since mid-February. The document calls for democratic reforms and a democratically elected government, but these requests have been rejected. The European Union cannot remain silent in the face of these clear violations of the right to demonstrate and of the freedom of expression."@en1
