Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I'll address my questions to Ambassador Vosalik and to Ed Broadbent, and in the second round to the other two. That will be more effective.
Ambassador Vosalik, I'll be visiting your country at the beginning of June for a conference that former President Václav Havel is holding on the promotion of human rights and democracy. I'm very much looking forward to that.
You mentioned that the human rights criterion for all countries, arising from your own experience that you seek to share, is how far a country is open to dialogue. You mentioned that Cuba has not been open to dialogue. What could a country like Canada do, after the experience of Czechoslovakia, to assist Czechoslovakia and other like-minded countries in opening up that dialogue? What initiatives can we take? That's the same thing I would ask Mr. Broadbent. What specifically can Canada do, what initiatives can we take, to promote political and civil rights in Cuba?
I used to notice the statement of Albert Camus every day at the International Centre for Human Rights and Democratic Development when you headed it. With the inspiration of Camus, what can we do?
