European Parliament President Meets with EHU Students in Brussels
21/06/2010
This meeting follows the President's invitation to the EHU students, which originated from his official visit to Vilnius and to the European Humanities University in October 2009.
"These students, as many other students in Belarus, are to be praised because they have refused to accept a pre-packaged truth, which in fact amounts to little more than a farce of democracy,” said President Buzek.
“Their action is a form of intellectual resistance which is to be praised and supported. The free Belarus of tomorrow will need new elites capable of governing wisely and democratically: the European Humanities University is an excellent breeding ground."
The group of students also met with members of the European Parliament delegation for relations with Belarus, and with MEP Heidi Hautala, chair of the European Parliament subcommittee for human rights.
