"Mr President, amidst all the naïve euphoria over the Arab Spring, the EU needs to open its eyes and do something about the continued violent attacks on Coptic Christians. There are frequent bloody and murderous incidents in Egypt, right on Europe’s doorstep. We need to act quickly on this. To put it quite plainly, an EU delegation needs to be appointed that will register, document and publish data on these groundless attacks, linking development aid and bilateral trade agreements to respect for religious freedom. Military aid from the EU must never be used to perpetrate acts of violence against civilians. This is something that needs to be evaluated and aid should be halted if necessary. The EU is urgently called upon to ensure that the so-called Arab Spring in countries like Egypt, Tunisia, and so on should actually give birth to new democracies in which the principles of tolerance, human rights and the rule of law are established."@en1
