"Madam President, without doubt the sexual exploitation of children scars children for their entire life. Despite the lack of statistics, studies illustrate that, in the European Union, between 10% and 20% of minors have suffered sexual violence. The offenders are usually people in their close social environment. These days, with the quantum leaps being made in new technologies, mobile telephony and the Internet, there has been a parallel eruption of child pornography and sexual exploitation websites, with ever younger children falling victim to skillful paedophiles.
The Angelilli report and the proposal for a directive recommend a European framework of actions to prevent and eliminate the sexual abuse and exploitation of minors and child pornography. I specifically congratulate Ms Angelilli, because she has included in her report a wealth of points made by the Council of Europe on the protection of children, setting out minimum punishments, strict sanctions and actions to prevent grooming, such as confiscating pornographic material and blocking websites.
I consider that this Convention should be ratified by everyone and that we should all work together on zero tolerance towards the sexual abuse of children."@en1
