lpv:translated text	"Mr President, following the election of Mahmoud Abbas and the formation of a new Israeli government said to be in favour of withdrawal, there is renewed hope that progress can at last be made in the peace process. It is a fragile hope, and the window of opportunity of which you, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, spoke is a narrow one. I would like to see our trans-Atlantic relations strengthened by the resolute commitment that the European Union and the United States must make, that this opportunity be not lost. The new Palestinian president must indeed be strongly encouraged in his self-confessed willingness to renounce violence and thereby relaunch dialogue. This courageous stance will, however, become untenable unless he soon – that is to say, between now and the summer – gets distinct indications that this attitude is in no sense a sort of capitulation. We have always known that this conflict, so long and painful, would, at its end, have neither victor nor vanquished. Whether rightly or wrongly, the Arab world regards the Americans as having taken Israel’s side. That is why there are such expectations, and not only in Palestine, that the European Union will balance perspectives and give its own guarantee. Here more than elsewhere, and now more than ever, our expectation of you, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, is that this necessary complementarity of influences be reinforced and put to work for the sake of peace and in order to strengthen trans-Atlantic relations, which is indispensable."@en1
