It would be very difficult for the help and the money that goes to the Palestinian Authority to continue to flow. The taxpayers in the European Union, members of the Parliament of the European Union, will not be in a position to sustain that type of political activity.
The United Nations should continue to be the center of gravity in the post-conflict period.
We are going to continue to damage as much as possible those units that are responsible for the criminal acts that have taken place in Kosovo,
Diplomatic initiatives continue, but I think we must continue with the NATO strategy to seek a just end to this conflict,
We have to stop leaders who are not prepared to look to the future, who continue to look to the past, who are not prepared to look to the 21st century and continue to do terrible things to their people,
Further work continues to be necessary in order to make this possible, including explaining what we plan to do to European public opinion, as well as to our international partners, including the US but also China too.
If the situation continues ... we will go the Security Council but we will have to discuss that today.
I got the impression from the government that they don't see any basic difficulties in parliament ... Parliament is is recess but people continue to work on the law.
This report is not true. We are going to continue with the same strategy, the strategy of the air campaign,
We have been saying from the very beginning that we will not tolerate any action in Montenegro, ... We will continue to say that and to act if necessary.
We will continue to support the Palestinian Authority until the new government is formed and on that we are trying to find the necessary resources.
We will continue economic support for the Palestinian Authority. We want to see how the new government is formed. After that we will decide what to do, but we will never abandon the Palestinian people.
The position of Russia is the following: Why don't we have an extraordinary meeting (at the UN), debate the situation then go back to Vienna, continue discussions there and wait for the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) board meetings in March.
I want to express my personal commitment to continue to strive for a positive contribution of the European Union to lasting peace in the region.
