"The Joint Parliamentary Assembly is a unique institution in the world, a key player in North/South cooperation, the driving force of a partnership in which elected members respect each other, put across their opinions freely and without taboo to forge a freer, fairer and more humane world. This assembly has successfully created an arena where debate is open, without preconceptions and where mutual respect is the rule, which enables us to have vibrant, lively and enriching debates where all parties are heard. It has a real political impetus. In 2010, therefore, we did not turn down any debate that affected the world’s fate, whether that be Millennium Development Goals (MDG), Economic Partnership Agreements (EPA), climate change, food security, Haiti, South Sudan ... For instance, in Kinshasa, we congratulated the fantastic work of Doctor Denis Mukwege who is trying to build a new future for female victims of sexual violence, underlining that impunity was unacceptable for this type of wartime practice. In Budapest, we also covered the subject of homosexuality because any minority, regardless of the nature of that which makes it a minority, must enjoy identical rights."@en1
