Mr President, Mr Watts’ report concerns an agreement on maritime transport between the European Union and China. Of course, I voted for the motion and I support this extremely important agreement between Europe and China, but I still wish – and I would like to voice this desire once more – that, in promoting the trade and economies of other countries, Europe would concern itself with monitoring respect for human beings and democracy in these states.
China is still a communist state and it still has a long way to go: let us help it along the path of European democracy.
