Vi har udarbejdet denne betænkning med ambitioner og ansvarsbevidsthed: med de ambitioner, det kræver at engagere sig i forsvaret af menneskerettighederne i verden, og med den ansvarsbevidsthed, det kræver at vide, at det er meget vanskeligt at få inddraget menneskerettighederne i Unionens udenrigspolitik.
In drafting this report we have been both ambitious and responsible; we have shown the ambition that committing ourselves to the defence of human rights in the world requires and the responsibility that comes from realising that the challenge of integrating human rights into the Union's external policy is a genuinely complex matter.
