"In my opinion, another resolution on Ukraine shows the European Parliament’s inability to conduct a constructive dialogue with an important partner. All arguments by supporters of Yulia Tymoshenko and supporters of strict diktats towards the current government of Ukraine resemble hysteria more than debates. We should be guided only by facts and not engage in political advertising of Yulia Tymoshenko, who lost the elections. I am sure that, if the court reached a verdict that Ms Tymoshenko is guilty, she should be subjected to punishment accordingly. I am sure that efforts to put the former prime minister beyond the law represent interference in the domestic affairs of Ukraine. I am sure that the political struggle should not become a clown-style activity. 48 million Ukrainian citizens are waiting for change but instead, they see every day the Yulia Tymoshenko soap opera. I will vote against the resolution and all other texts on Ukraine if they contain silly points and emotions. I am confident that the appeal from Catherine Ashton to boycott Euro 2012 is an irresponsible move that will drive Ukraine away from the EU. I appeal to all MEPs to make a statement regarding that."@en1
