"Mr President, I totally condemn the unilateral declaration of independence made by the Tuareg rebels, who benefited for years from military and financial support from Gaddafi’s Libya, are connected to Islamic militants in Northern Mali and are now taking advantage of the power vacuum left following the military coup that ousted President Touré. These rebels must hand over control of the northern areas to the central political authorities in Mali as has been demanded by the international community, which does not wish to see further bloodshed and chaos in this fragile country.
We must also enforce sanctions against the leaders of the MNLA – such as asset freezes and travel bans – in order to put across to them a strong message from the EU that their behaviour is unacceptable. I believe that the proposals put forward in this motion for a resolution will go some way to supporting Mali’s territorial integrity and to building a democratic Mali with the aid of new free and fair elections. For this reason, I and my ECR Group voted in favour of this resolution."@en1
