"I voted in favour of the report by Mr Howitt because I believe that the text approved today by Parliament puts forward some positive suggestions for dealing with the difficult issue of human rights. The delicate area of human rights covers various issues and needs to be tackled by the EU not only from a European and a political viewpoint, but also in its relationships with non-EU countries. The EU must therefore continue to take action to safeguard civil rights, such as freedom of expression, gender equality and actions to support pluralism and democracy. This Parliament has already done much and must continue to do much with regard to safeguarding human rights. There is still a long way to go, and the good work on the issue in EU policies needs to be extended and improved in the area of non-EU relationships, without losing sight of developments in the social and political context."@en1
