"Mr President, I welcome the vote in favour of this resolution on the situation in Mali.
In the face of this security, humanitarian and food crisis, we have a duty to act and ensure that everything is put in place, firstly, to protect the most vulnerable populations – that is, displaced persons, women and children; secondly, to support the regional and international efforts of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), the African Union and the UN in order to resolve the conflict; thirdly, to accompany the interim Malian authorities in the coming democratic transition process and thereby defend the sovereignty, integrity and unity of Mali; lastly, to ensure the stability and security of the Sahel region, which has today been weakened by the terrorist threat and the food crisis that weigh heavily on the future of the region.
I would therefore ask the Commission and the Member States to make a commitment to the people of Mali and the various international organisations to let the Sahel region know that the European Union will do all it can to ensure that fundamental rights are respected, including the right to live in a peaceful environment."@en1
