"Mr President, the appalling crimes committed under the cloak of military conflict against women and girls are a clear indication that their rights are not sufficiently protected, despite all efforts to date. Sexual violence in the form of mass rape, human trafficking and other forms of sexual abuse still form part of military tactics in conflict regions worldwide. We cannot tolerate such attacks on human dignity.
I therefore wholeheartedly agree with the rapporteur’s proposals concerning the introduction of a code of behaviour for people serving in military and civilian missions, clearly stating that sexual abuse constitutes unjustifiable and criminal behaviour. It will introduce strict penalties and zero tolerance vis-à-vis sexual abuse of children, girls and women in armed conflicts and in refugee camps. I support the proposals to strengthen the participation of women in leading political dialogue roles. The representation of women in international teams and in civilian and security missions should be a basic precondition for the provision of support within a peace process framework."@en1
