lpv:translated text	"− I voted in favour of this resolution on the common foreign and security policy (CFSP). It is an important document provisions of which I fully support. I am pleased that there was room in it to mention EU-Taiwan relations. I feel that this is very important, particularly in today’s context where the protracted dispute between Japan and China over a chain of islands has recently begun to escalate into open confrontation. It should be highlighted that the existence of Taiwan and its peaceful, non-confrontational policies are important for maintaining stability in the region of the East China Sea, and that Taiwan in general also acts as a stabilising factor. The EU welcomes good relations with Taiwan, which must be developed further. In this context I welcome the resolution’s provision that we must urge the Commission and the Council to take concrete steps to further enhance EU-Taiwan economic relations, and to facilitate the negotiation of an EU-Taiwan economic cooperation agreement. Furthermore, the EU must firmly support Taiwan’s meaningful participation in relevant international organisations and activities, including the World Health Organisation. I am pleased that the EU visa waiver programme for Taiwanese citizens, which entered into force in January 2011, has proven to be mutually beneficial."@en1
