lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, according to a former Tiananmen Square student leader, Chai Ling, over 35 000 forced and coerced abortions are taking place today in China. Ling calls the brutal enforcement of the one-child policy the largest crime against humanity. He says it is as if the Tiananmen Square massacre had taken place every hour, and it is an unending holocaust that has gone on for thirty years. Coerced abortion has been exposed by the UNHCR in the context of refugees and displaced populations. Up to one hundred million girls who would have otherwise been expected to be alive are missing from various populations – mostly in Asia – as a result of sex-selective abortions, infanticide or neglect. Why is this not highlighted more by the UNHCR? Why is this not highlighted more by this House? If these were males, they would be alive. Gender-based abortion – the murder of women because they are females – is totally unacceptable and must be addressed by the UN and the European Parliament."@en1
