lpv:translated text	"Madam President, we have heard the relocation of sporting competitions described as ‘gesture politics’. However, to hold such competitions in a brutal dictatorship where people are randomly murdered would also entail gesture politics, by which I mean bad gesture politics. The decision to hold the Olympic Games in Nazi Germany was bad gesture politics. When it came to the Olympics Games in Beijing, people said that they would promote democracy and the rule of law. Exactly the opposite was true. The regime used the Games to enhance its profile. That was a case of bad gesture politics. That is why I am in favour of good gesture politics and of the relocation of the championship."@en1
