"Apart from the significance of this House speaking with a single voice and the repeated appeals in this resolution, which I was one of the first to sign, against the basely orchestrated massacre of a people, I believe that the whole international community must keep up constant and daily pressure on the Syrian regime, which should involve implementing new restrictive measures. Although I am perfectly aware that a democratic Syria needs a period of transition and guarantees for all of its minorities, I believe that the EU and the international community are already too late toughening up their action. As I said in plenary, we must give more concrete support to the Arab League. We need to give our unreserved support to the work of the Red Crescent in its efforts to mitigate the suffering of the people. The International Criminal Court must begin taking steps immediately to punish those responsible for the crimes against humanity that are being committed. In addition, as a form of pressure on countries that have kept up their support for Assad, all EU trade with Russian or Chinese companies that have trade relations with Syria should be banned."@en1
