"(
) There is something not right when Parliament demands respect but cannot command it.
Relevant and serious issues like this deserve our attention, discussion and a search for the greatest common denominator. I do not even think that this should be difficult to achieve. Nevertheless, the furtive and back-handed introduction of divisive issues under cover of these very topics is turning into a regrettable habit. Once again, Parliament has acted as a mere sounding board for the most extreme agendas.
I cannot but emphatically reject this attempt to promote the liberalisation of abortion and the disregard for human life and dignity that come with it under the pretext of supporting equality between men and women, and the illegitimate attempt to associate both these causes and manipulate the powers of the Member States in such matters.
This obsession with expanding the concept of sexual and reproductive health to include abortion, along with forcing it to be implemented everywhere, shows the kind of insidious methods employed by those who try to put a pretty face on reality. These euphemisms designed to numb the conscience cannot make it any less brutal, violence against women less cruel or this strategy less deplorable."@en1
