However, I do believe that the international community needs to move on from rhetoric to real action and, as a member of Parliament's Delegation for relations with the Member States of ASEAN, South-east Asia and the Republic of Korea, I am disappointed and concerned like others before me that the EU has decided to enter into dialogue with ASEAN in Laos next month at ministerial level.
Jeg mener dog, at man fra international side skal overveje handling i stedet for ord, og som medlem af Parlamentets delegation for forbindelser med medlemsstater i ASEAN, Sydøstasien og republikken Korea er jeg som mange andre skuffet og bekymret over, at EU har besluttet at forsøge at få en dialog i gang med ASEAN på ministerniveau i Laos i næste måned.
