lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, sexual violence and mass rape used as weapons of war are, unfortunately on the rise across the world. Parliament has often been alarmed by the deteriorating situation, particularly in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, and by the widespread impunity. I visited South Kivu, in particular, some time ago. I can testify to the gravity of the situation and the devastating physical and psychological consequences for women and young girls as a result of such acts. Let us not choose the wrong battle. In the face of such atrocities, reproductive and sexual health should be dealt with without taboo. The Union must grant a central place in its actions to reproductive and sexual health and the protection of women’s rights in terms of sexuality during times of war. We know that rape is a crime. During war, it is a war crime. Therefore, women – we must always remember – are not an instrument of war."@en1
