Commissioner, I can tell you that I am altogether dissatisfied with the response given. I regret that Mr Michel is not here because he is very well acquainted with the subject of Mauritania. I believe that the Commission could have provided more information in view of the
coup d’état
in August, given that it proposed to dispatch a European Union delegation for the purposes of monitoring the elections being held there. I would remind you that a referendum is due to take place in that country at the end of June. Consequently, are you able to tell us whether this delegation will have a short- or a long-term mission regarding the elections?
