lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, like others, I welcome the rather tardy arrival of this communication, but nevertheless it is welcome in itself. It represents not, I think, what the Vice-President/High Representative defines as the beginning of a process, so much as the end of the examination of the subject from the point of view of the EEAS, Parliament, the Commission and the Council. When Parliament finally produces its report – I hope very soon – I think that will end it, because we all know that human rights are a universal value, that the document itself defines democracy as a universal value. What I think is important is to accept the propositions made in the paper and to think about the new institutional balance we need to strike on this. Yes, this year has been a challenge for all of us, but when – and I welcome this – the Vice-President/High Representative says she is open to the creation of a special representative for human rights, I hope she means that she is prepared to do this, because I know that the NGOs, the European Parliament and the human rights community generally want to see that expression of the commitment of the Commission and the EEAS to human rights. We need also a European endowment for democracy as another institutional element in the development of this process of democracy and human rights in the world. Finally, I can tell the House that last night, the Bureau established the process for creating a European Parliament Office for Democracy. That will be finalised in the new year. I welcome that very much."@en1
