"Madam President, it has been very interesting to follow the debate here today, and it has underlined the fact that we are dealing with an area in which it is incredibly important to step up our efforts. The circumstances that we witness in connection with trafficking in human beings are abhorrent. I would therefore like to take this opportunity to assure you that the Council will endeavour to ensure that the directive is followed up and, as I said, we will do everything in our power to combat the dreadful phenomenon of trafficking in human beings. I am pleased that we are in agreement about the need for a coordinated approach to the combating of trafficking in human beings, both at EU level and in the wider international community. For this reason, too, I think that the strategy on combating trafficking in human beings that the Commission is expected to present soon will be worth looking forward to, and that it is also worth appreciating the fact that we have good cooperation with Parliament and can look forward to new initiatives in the fight against human trafficking from you, too. Thank you for a very good debate, which has emphasised the fact that trafficking in human beings is a despicable phenomenon that we need to step up our efforts to combat."@en1
