lpv:translated text	"People in the European Union still face obstacles in actively exercising their rights as EU citizens. For example, current events regarding the creation of websites discriminating against Central and Eastern European workers show that the rights of European Union citizens are still under threat. We must therefore defend the right of citizens to move and work freely, because the free movement of workers is one of the most important European Union values and all workers must have the same rights and be respected in all EU Member States. Secondly, every day, people with disabilities in the European Union encounter many physical and social barriers preventing them from enjoying their rights, such as normal use of public buildings, public services, free movement and use of public transport, infrastructure, information technology and other measures and services. Unfortunately, the high level of unemployment is the greatest obstacle to the inclusion of disabled people in society, and unemployment among disabled people arises because of insufficient preparation for the labour market. In accordance with the European Disability strategy (2010-2020), the Member States and the Commission must therefore take active steps to overcome barriers to movement and accessibility for people with disabilities because that would solve many other problems, such as social isolation, discrimination, unemployment, etc. I also call on the Member States to actively make the most of the European Year of Citizens 2013 and raise people’s awareness of the rights attached to Union citizenship."@en1
