lpv:translated text	"Madam President, Lady Ashton, as we point out in this report, the consistency and coherence of the common foreign and security policy (CFSP) requires political leadership and coordination, ensuring that European policies such as trade and development are in line with CFSP principles, values and strategic interests. Ethiopia – an ACP partner, a major recipient of EU aid, the second most populous country in Africa and headquarters of the African Union – has been without a government since the dictator, Meles Zenawi, died in July, much earlier than the totalitarian clique announced to the people of Ethiopia. This delay allowed them to secretly engineer the perpetuation of their oppressive regime. Fortunately, yesterday, two Swedish journalists imprisoned by Meles were finally released. But we did not hear the EU pressing for their release, and we did not hear it pressing for the release of all the other thousands of Ethiopian political prisoners, including Eskinder Nega, recipient of PEN America’s ‘Freedom to Write’ award. What can you tell us about your endeavours in that regard? Why is the EU so silent or at least so discreet in calling for the liberation of Ethiopians? And can you tell us what the EU is doing to press for an inclusive political dialogue involving all opposition parties, including the armed ones, so that Ethiopia may remain unified and not fall into violence, so that Ethiopia may now find that genuine road to democracy to which its people aspire and not go on oppressed by these totalitarian forces? Ethiopia is too important for Africa and for the world for us to continue to turn a blind eye to what is going on there."@en1
