lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I have thought for a long time about why it is that this debate in the European Parliament is taking place today. It was only quite recently that we adopted the excellent report by Mr Lisek, in which we praised the determined and consistent work in introducing democratic standards in Georgia and I am wondering what has happened since that time. In my view nothing has happened. On the contrary, the Georgian authorities are still reforming the country, they are introducing democratic reforms, they have reformed media law and electoral law. Georgia is high in ‘doing business’ rankings as far as openness to business and the fight against corruption is concerned. Let us all consider for a moment why it is that we have organised this debate today. What we should be doing is helping Georgia, providing support and encouragement to the Georgian authorities in what they are doing in their own country as regards coming closer to the European Union, because this is the kind of Georgia that we, as the European Union, need. At the same time let us look at the behaviour of the opposition and consider whether it is in the opposition’s interests for there to be a proud and independent sovereign Georgian nation or a country that is under Russian influence."@en1
