  Ulrike Lunacek (Verts/ALE). – Mr President, this is a happy day today because Leyla Yunus, shortlisted for the Sakharov Prize, is here today with us, free, together with her husband and her daughter. They were in the Plenary today, they are meeting with my group now. And yes, it is true that in Azerbaijan 150 people have been pardoned recently. But also another 70 are in prison because of their political ideas. So we have progress, but at the same time there is not enough pressure that we can exert to stop those authoritarian rulers who put people into prison because they criticise them. We need to do more and there needs to be more coherence between trade and economic instruments and our human rights policies. And I am sure that if we phased out fossil fuels, oil and gas, we would be a lot more independent towards rulers who put people like Leyla Yunus in prison. And luckily, she is not in prison anymore but here with us. Let me raise one other group of people: lesbians, gays, bisexual, transgender and intersex people in this world. It is good we have guidelines from the External Action Service. The UN Human Rights Council just voted for an independent expert to look into the plight of LGBTI people. We need to do more because people need to be able to live free from fear all over this planet.
