"Despite the serious and far-reaching consequences of the economic crisis, relations between the European Union and Russia have continued to evolve in recent decades. They are moving towards a complex economic integration and interdependence, and this can be expected to develop further in the future. The conclusion of a strategic partnership agreement between the EU and the Russian Federation is of key significance for the further development and intensification of cooperation between the two partners. For example, security of energy supplies is one of the greatest challenges for Europe, and one of the main areas of cooperation with Russia. Their joint effort should be directed towards the efficient use of energy and energy systems, and towards continuing the appropriate development of this effort. In another area, however, developments in the Russian Federation regarding the observance and protection of human rights and respect for commonly agreed democratic principles, rules and procedures are still a cause for concern. The Russian Federation, as a full member of the Council of Europe, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the United Nations, is committed to the principles of democracy and human rights. I take the view that it is important and necessary to respect these principles."@en1
