"Central Asia is strategically important in political and economic terms to the European Union. Since 2007, the EU has strengthened its diplomatic relations, as shown by the bilateral discussions on human rights and national water policies. In the countries of Central Asia there are however serious deficits regarding democracy, human rights, the rule of law and fundamental freedoms. Although tangible progress has been made, the limitations of the European strategy vis-à-vis Central Europe are now obvious. Furthermore, the EU has not succeeded in incorporating its various objectives, values and interest into programmes that are effective and suited to the realities of the region. It is hoped that this vote will lead to a series of initiatives to strengthen the EU’s engagement, concentrating on those objectives and measures which will contribute most to meeting the most pressing challenges: human rights and the rule of law, water, energy and regional safety."@en1
