Set i lyset heraf er det mit håb, at Kommissionen ikke - og det tror jeg i alt fald gælder kommissær Michel - betragter Den Blandede Parlamentariske Forsamlings arbejde om anekdotisk, at den ikke betragter Forsamlingen som en form for sikkerhedsventil, hvor vi drøfter indbyrdes spændinger. Det er tværtimod mit håb, at Kommissionen virkelig vil tage hensyn til de synspunkter, der kommer til udtryk i Forsamlingen, eftersom det for mange af vores kolleger fra AVS-landene desværre er det eneste forum, hvor de har mulighed for at komme til orde.
I would just like to point out that effectively, the JPA is a matter for MPs, but that the Commission plays an important role ,of course, in development policies at European level, and on that basis it is my wish that the Commission should not consider - and I think that Commissioner Michel, in any case, is included here - the work of this Assembly as anecdotal work, that it should not consider this Assembly as a sort of safety valve where the tensions between us are discussed, but rather that it takes into account the opinions expressed there, since for many of our ACP colleagues, this is unfortunately the only forum where they are able to express themselves.Europarl8 Europarl8
