lpv:translated text	"South Africa is a country that has been inspiring interest, aid and esteem internationally since the end of apartheid due to the way in which, despite difficulties and setbacks, it has managed to make a relatively peaceful transition from a supremacist regime to a democracy in which universal suffrage prevails. It is impossible to recall this transition without evoking the inspirational figure of Nelson Mandela and his show of dignity, kindness and reconciliation, which is still having a positive effect on the country. Today, we can say that South Africa is a key geopolitical and geostrategic player in Africa, and an example to other countries that have not yet been able to free themselves from the dictatorships that are oppressing them and holding back their development. The EU has every interest in strengthening the ties that bind it to South Africa and in establishing partnerships that are mutually advantageous. I therefore support the amendment to the Agreement on Trade, Development and Cooperation between the EU and South Africa."@en1
