"Mr President, this resolution contained a justified criticism of the Israeli attack, but I regret the fact that the words have not been converted into action. Let us imagine for a moment that it was Cuba or Venezuela or Iran that had attacked an EU vessel in international waters without a prior declaration of war and had killed a number of people – 9 people killed, 34 injured – the reason being that there had been an attempt to support terrorism in Cuba or something along those lines. Would the EU have maintained a privileged trading relationship with such a country? No, of course not. We would have responded in a completely different way. The problem with this resolution is that it contains some fine words, but it will not lead to action. It does not take up the issue of the privileged partnership. If Parliament is to retain its credibility, I think it is important that our words are accompanied by action."@en1
