"Since I work closely on human rights, democracy, rule of law, civil liberties and gender equality, I endorse Richard Howitt’s report. Those values are the cornerstones of the European Union and it is important that we imprint them on every policy field, from energy and development to environment and trade. The activities of the EU must be consistent and coherent, keeping in mind the interests of the citizens of the Union as well as its international credibility. As human rights are such an integral part of what the EU stands for, I would insist that it reflects on our relations with third countries, especially with strategic partners. Unfortunately, not all of them share the same values, which, in my opinion, casts a doubt as to whether use of the term ‘strategic partnership’ is, in those cases, justified."@en1
