"I would like to thank the rapporteur for doing such an enormously important work.
Europe has long been proud that slavery was eradicated here sooner than on any other continent. Sadly, it is returning in other forms that are equally repulsive, along with scorn, distress and, ironically, unimaginable profits.
What should we do first? We should coordinate the actions of the EU and all neighbouring countries better, eliminate legal gaps enabling offenders to evade law enforcement without being punished, even hand out to all Members of the European Parliament a kind of 'shame list' of states, which have failed to ratify United Nations conventions on trafficking in human beings, and draft a code of conduct for officers of EU institutions and bodies, which would even be useful for some Members of Parliament.
We must make our citizens, especially those in the new EU Member States, clearly aware of the possible threats of becoming a target of traffickers in people. The victims of offenders must not only have the courage but also the right to be able to address governmental institutions without being afraid of deportation."@en1
