With the exception of Uzbekistan, where the EU suspended its partnership and cooperation agreement and imposed other sanctions after President Islam Karimov refused to agree to an international inquiry into the Andijan massacre, the EU and its member states were reluctant to sacrifice business and important political interests for strong promotion of human rights, according to the report. Europeans are only slightly better than Americans. During Saddam's salad days in the '80s, Europe was right in there with their American counterparts selling Saddam weapons of all sorts. If Europe had as much power as the US, they would not be taking the slightly higher road as much as they do. ted
