lpv:translated text	". We voted in favour of this resolution on account of its general defence of human rights in the EU Member States, although we do have some criticisms with regard to the wording of one of the points. It is unacceptable to continue to foster homophobic practice and any form of discrimination against people on the grounds of sexual orientation. We therefore support the call on the Commission for an anti-discrimination package based on Article 13 of the Treaty on European Union, aimed at putting an end to discrimination on various grounds including that of sexual orientation. We advocate a range of measures to encourage the fostering of equal rights and opportunities for all, rather than mere formal statements not backed by legislative or budgetary substance. We also support the call for stepping up the practical enforcement of existing legislation in these areas, to defend and promote human rights. We object to discriminatory comments by politicians aimed at homosexuals, given that such comments more often than not incite hatred and violence."@en1
