lpv:translated text	"− I voted in favour of this resolution on the situation in Syria, Yemen and Bahrain in the context of the situation in the Arab world and North Africa. This is above all because political instability in the region is the main factor behind the uncontrolled migration flows into the EU. Attention should be drawn to the fact that Syria’s security forces are continuing to repress Syria’s civilian population, killing protestors, arresting anti-government activists and driving civilians from their homes. All of this is forcing thousands of people to flee to Turkey. In order to ensure respect for human rights and quell unrest, the Syrian authorities should release all Syrian political prisoners, detained due to their participation in anti-government demonstrations, and end torture and abuse, as well as restrictions on freedom of expression and of the press. Attention should be drawn to the fact that, in both Yemen and Bahrain, the current situation is a major cause for concern. The chaos in the State of Bahrain, and Iran’s involvement in the internal affairs of this kingdom in the Persian Gulf, pose a danger not just to the population of this country but to the entire region. Consequently, we must review and implement the European Neighbourhood Policy more effectively, and provide humanitarian or other necessary aid, so that peace and democracy might be restored in this region."@en1
