Communique issued by the Presidency of the Republic announcing the release of the bulgarian nurses and doctor
Paris, 24 July 2007
The French presidential plane has just taken off from Libya for Sofia with Mme Cécilia Sarkozy, Ms Benita Ferrero-Waldner, M. Claude Guéant, the Bulgarian nurses and Palestinian doctor on board.
The President of the French Republic, M. Nicolas Sarkozy, and President of the European Commission, Mr José Manuel Barroso, welcome the agreement which has finally allowed the release and return to Bulgaria of the nurses held for over eight years, and of the Palestinian doctor, and establishment of an improved framework to ensure the care dispensed to child AIDS victims in Libya.
President Sarkozy and the President of the Commission welcome this humanitarian gesture of Libya and her highest leader and pledge to do the utmost to help children infected with AIDS. They express their profound gratitude to the Amir and State of Qatar whose mediation made this happy outcome possible.
This outcome would not have been possible without the efforts and determination of the European Commission, and more particularly of the Member of the European Commission in charge of External Relations, Ms Benita Ferrero-Waldner, throughout the process, and without the personal commitment of Mme Cécilia Sarkozy./.
