European Parliament
Brok (PPE-DE ).
(DE)
Mr President, as a representative of the European Parliament, I have the honour of participating in a government conference. As the chairman of the Committee for Foreign Affairs, Human Rights, Common Security and Defence Policy, I have been holding frequent discussions – in the Council, in the Commission and in the embassies, with representatives of other countries, some of which are candidates for accession. May I ask for your support and protection, to ensure that Mr Martin cannot portray this activity in the exercise of my mandate as a disadvantage to the public?
(Applause)
