"Madam President, I note that human rights clauses in partnership agreements and free trade agreements are asserted by the EU only sparingly and unsystematically. I consider another disturbing trend in the world, against which the European Union must take clear action, to be the violation of freedom of religion and belief, which is closely related to the spread of intolerance followed by violence against members of religious communities and minorities. We should not be afraid to state out loud that the victims include Christians around the world. I would also like to point out the inconsistency of the EU’s approach to the protection of human life, as manifested, for example, by the fact that the EU condemns cruel, inhumane and degrading treatment, including forced abortions and forced sterilisations, and yet, at the same time, the EU financially supports programmes aimed at so-called sexual and reproductive health, which include the carrying out of abortions. Sadly, such programmes are a significant part of EU policy, and therefore I could not support this report."@en1
