"Madam President, in 2011 Kazakhstan’s scored only 2.7 on Transparency International’s corruption perception index. For 2012, Freedom House describes the Kazakh judicial system as being dependent on the executive and with a lot of corruption. As proof of this, the Zhanaozen trials were rampant with independent accusations of evidence fabrication, torture and intimidation. The progress in the negotiation of the new partnership and cooperation agreement must be linked to the progress of political reform. Enforcing judicial independence and curbing corruption within the judiciary must be set as priorities. Also, the control and management of penitentiaries should be returned to the Ministry of Justice, and political prisoners must be released. We need binding commitments from the Kazakh authorities. I believe that EU financial aid must be conditional upon progress with clear benchmarks, binding deadlines and monitoring mechanisms."@en1
