We must not leave the opposition unsupported by adopting measures that encourage isolation. Instead, we should press, through intensive contacts not only with the government but also with the opposition, and by the Council, the European Parliament and the Commission bringing all their considerable influence to bear, for an end to these developments, and to ensure that the reform process in Iran, which is fragile but promising, is not once again choked at birth!
Vi må nu ikke ved foranstaltninger, der fremmer isolationen, lade oppositionen stå alene, men vi skal i intensiv kontakt med regeringen, men også i intensiv kontakt med oppositionen og med massiv påvirkning fra Rådet, fra Europa-Parlamentet og fra Kommissionen kræve, at det hindres, at den i forvejen svage, men lovende demokratiseringsproces i Iran igen kvæles fuldstændigt.
