"Madam President, I very much welcome the strategic review that is being undertaken, and of course I see that the Commissioner does take a very real personal interest in these matters. She must be quite sick to death of the number of letters that I keep writing to her about human rights issues by now, but she deals with them very diligently and I am obliged to her for that.
Commissioner, we actually have a problem here and it is quite clear to me that the flag that we display in our Parliament in certain instances has a reputation of which we can be proud. In other instances, it has a reputation for double standards. I see that displayed here today. For instance, in all of the comments that have been made, there has not been a single mention of the thousands and thousands of mass graves that have been discovered in the area of Kashmir, only as recently as a matter of months ago and going back over the last year or so. We, of course, as a set of institutions, are currently in negotiations with India. If you want that agreement to pass through this House – and I am committed to that agreement – one of the things we have to do is to see how we can square that circle."@en1
