"Mr President, on various occasions Parliament has talked about the code of conduct for the export and transfer of arms. First of all in order to arrive at this code of conduct, then in order that it should be effective.
Today, our resolution has a fundamental objective: to help the next United Nations Conference in July to be successful. In order to do this we propose various points in the resolution. Taking into account the time that I have, I am only going to explain three. In the first place, preventing arms from being exported or transferred to groups or countries that violate human rights. Secondly, an international agreement on the trade and transport of arms that is binding for all countries. Thirdly, transparency and parliamentary control over this trade which causes low- and medium-intensity conflicts, something which you only have to be here for an afternoon of topical and urgent debate to see.
Of course, without these arms, those conflicts would not happen. Parliament must therefore wish the United Nations Conference in July to be a success."@en1
