9. volebné obdobie Rory PALMER

I voted in favour of this resolution because it pays homage to the victims of the December 1989 revolution, who sacrificed their lives for the cause of ending the totalitarian dictatorship in Romania, and to their families.

The ‘China cables’ investigation has unveiled the repressive regime that Uyghurs and other Muslim ethnic minorities are facing at the hands of the Chinese Government. I voted in favour of this resolution, because it strongly condemns the sending of hundreds of thousands of Uyghurs and ethnic Kazakhs to political re-education camps, and it demands EU—targeted sanctions against those Chinese officials responsible for implementing this revolting policy of mass detention.

I supported this resolution, because it calls for an immediate end to the repression of freedoms by governmental forces and paramilitaries in Nicaragua. As there has been no progress in resuming a national dialogue, we are calling on the Council to start filling the list of targeted sanctions for those who have committed human rights abuses.
