"The review of the European Neighbourhood Policy is needed now more than ever, firstly, in the light of the developments that will inevitably lead to an Arab Spring in the South, and secondly, in view of the new wave of violations of fundamental rights in some Eastern countries. The solutions proposed in the report are inspired by lessons learned from the past, and take into account the specific characteristics of the two regions of our neighbourhood. That is why I supported it in the plenary vote. However, this vote is only part of the process. I shall be keeping a close watch on the distribution of funding earmarked for neighbourhood instruments, and on the implementation of new instruments that have been announced, such as the European Endowment for Democracy, for which I have been appointed shadow rapporteur by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats). Above all, we should monitor the way in which these funds are used. The European Commission should ensure there is regular monitoring based on a similar method and similar criteria for all recipient countries."@en1
