"Madam President, Madam Vice-President, ladies and gentlemen, last December, yet another group of Eritrean refugees was kidnapped by human traffickers from
and sold to a gang belonging to the Ramailat tribe. Amongst them was a group of 27 Eritreans, including four girls and a woman with a small infant who were taken to Rafah. The group was subjected to terrible violence. Several were killed and their bodies abandoned in the desert.
One of these refugees, twenty-five-year-old Solomon, a few weeks later managed to escape from the prison where he was being held and took refuge in a mosque run by a group of Salafis who for the moment have not agreed to hand him back to his torturers. A bounty of USD 50 000 has been placed on his head. The European Union must make it clear whether the lives of Eritrean refugees are worth less than others.
We need a coordinating body to go via the African Union, as European Union partners, explicitly committed to the universal values of democracy and human rights. Given what is happening in the Sinai, one wonders what the point of the revolutions of the Arab Spring was. If no one does anything to free Solomon, what is the point of our proclamations about models of democracy?"@en1
