lpv:translated text	"− ( ) I regard the EU as a union of values and am in favour of several of the wordings in the report which direct our attention to the vulnerable position of children around the world. It is clear that society must take responsibility for safeguarding the rights of children, for reducing child mortality in poor countries and for combating all forms of child exploitation. However, the report also contains wordings that I find difficult to support, including the proposal to appoint a special EU representative with the responsibility to ‘ensure visibility and leadership on children’s rights’. The measures necessary to safeguard children’s rights are, and must remain, a matter for the national parliaments to decide. If international cooperation is considered necessary, it should be sought within the framework of the United Nations, not the European Union. In spite of these reservations, I have chosen to vote in favour of the report."@en1
