"According to World Health Organisation figures, between 100 million and 140 million women and girls have been subjected to genital mutilation, and 3 million are at risk every year. In 2008, it was estimated that around 500 000 women living in Europe were daily suffering the consequences of having been mutilated, and around 180 000 were at risk every year. Following previous resolutions by Parliament on the fight against female genital mutilation, appeals and recommendations are once again being made to various institutions, including the United Nations, to put a stop to this practice. Moreover, the motion for a resolution stresses the importance of awareness-raising, mobilisation, and education and training of those directly or indirectly involved in this issue, including the families of the victims and the communities to which they belong. We voted for this resolution."@en1
