lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I am pleased that we are discussing Burma today, because on the one hand it gives us an opportunity to acknowledge the progress which as been made there in going from basically a military, authoritarian state towards democracy. While everything is not perfect, I think the visit there by President Obama was in itself an indication that in the broader sense Burma’s progress has been recognised worldwide. That is important. On the other hand, there are difficulties, of course, particularly in Rakhine State. The Rohingyas need to be given citizenship, because you cannot have a stateless group within a state. You will never get solutions if that situation continues. They also need outside help. I come from Ireland, where we had a similar situation in Northern Ireland: it was seen as Catholic versus Protestant. The role played by the European Union and the United States was vital. We can play the same role in Burma."@en1
