"Mr President, I would like to reaffirm what my colleague, Manuel Medina, has just said.
Fortunately, in this particular case, we can welcome the fact that the Spanish Jesuit and other Spaniards, as well as other Community citizens, have been released. It is also true, however, that Colombia, which we frequently discuss here, has several problems.
At the moment, for example, there is a Colombian priest, Oliveiro Medina, who is in Brazil. His extradition to Colombia could put his life in danger because we have already seen, in the last resolution on Colombia that we discussed, that more than 24 human rights defenders have recently been murdered there.
Unfortunately, we all hoped that we would not have to discuss Colombia again. Unfortunately, we may have to discuss it again, but I think that the European Union should have a fundamental role – as Manolo Medina was saying – in Latin America in general. And reducing budgets for Latin America is not going to help us to play the role that we should be playing there."@en1
