"Mr President, I shall not speak about the murder of Mr Rafiq Tagi, nor about the human rights situation in Azerbaijan, which I have discussed in this Chamber in the past. Once again, I regret our choice of urgent topics and the way in which we deal with them. I should like to speak about the situation in the Ashraf refugee camp: the camp currently houses 3 500 people, including 1 000 women and many children. The United States has just announced that it will withdraw its troops on 31 December 2011; I am not sorry about that but I am worried that after that date the refugees in Camp Ashraf will no longer be guaranteed any protection. What will become of them, given that the Iraqi Government still considers them to be terrorists? The UN, the Council of Europe and Ms Ashton are all calling for protection for these people. The UNHCR’s response is that it needs time. Why has the Council of Ministers refused to consider Ms Ashton’s request for the refugees with links to the Member States to be accepted? I believe – and I am finishing now, Mr President – that, once again, it is unfortunately the French Government that is at the forefront of this issue, and I sincerely regret that."@en1
