| I am a longstanding campaigner on the rights of Palestinians to self-determination. In the European Parliament, I have been a member of the Delegation for Relations with the Palestine Legislative Council. I have visited Gaza and the West Bank several times as part of European Parliament delegation visits and other groups. I have tried to raise awareness of the situation through the press and media, public meetings and by making a film. I have been in touch many times with the EU Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy, Catherine Ashton, in relation to EU action on trade and human rights issues. I am President of the European Free Alliance (EFA) group in the European Parliament, made up of parties working for self-determination, and which has been active in this campaign too. |
