"The situation in Syria is deeply worrying. Despite widespread international condemnation, the Syrian authorities continue their brutal repression against their population, and continue to commit grave human rights violations against non-violent civilians. The toll of this repression is tragic: according to United Nations estimates, since March 2011, more than 5 000 people, including over 300 children, have been killed, and many more have been injured, more than 14 000 people are reported to have been detained and tens of thousands of others have sought refuge in neighbouring countries or have been internally displaced in Syria. By voting for this resolution, I wanted to once again condemn, in the strongest terms, the Syrian regime’s brutal repression against its population, and to reaffirm my solidarity with the Syrian people in their non-violent struggle for freedom, dignity and democracy. We again call for President Bachar al-Assad and his regime to relinquish power immediately so that a political transition can take place in Syria."@en1
