lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I confess to not understanding much of the criticism and many of the remarks coming from some Members. Some of them even seem offensive towards the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament. You do not have any grounds for casting doubt on our intentions with regard to the rights of people around the world, starting with Tibet and going on to other parts of the world with which we have again been concerned in the last few days. We have always stood up for human rights. The issue that Ms De Keyser has raised is a problem of a different order; it is a problem of political timeliness. In other words, whether a position taken at this time by Parliament would help or hinder the process intended to resolve the dreadful problem of the Tibetan monks, who have a right to express their opinions and to live in decent conditions in their country, in a full democracy. There is therefore no doubt that restrictions exist. The issue, however, lies elsewhere: it is how not to turn good intentions and positive wishes, such as those that motivate you, into an obstacle to the process of resolving this problem. That is all. As for the rest, we do not disagree on the fact that human rights must be guaranteed at all times. Just beware of timing."@en1
