"The Republic of Kazakhstan plays an important role for the security and stability of Central Asia. This country has also become an important partner for Europe because of its economic potential and its natural resources. The continuation of our cooperation, as well as political dialogue with Astana, require the negotiation of a new understanding to replace the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement which is now reaching its term. The need to make economic and political relations both closer and deeper would appear to be fully justified. Unfortunately the recent events involving the brutal repression of striking oil workers in Zhanaozen have cast a shadow over the reliability of this country. While the involvement of the President in investigating the circumstances of this heinous act is encouraging, the authorities are still a long way at present from starting a constructive social dialogue. Instances of breaches of freedom of speech as well as arrests of representatives of the media and the opposition are also worrying. With the above in mind I abstained from voting."@en1
