"I voted in favour of this motion for a resolution, as I always support texts which promote steps towards greater equality between men and women. Combating violence against women is unfortunately a key part of this, and female genital mutilation is one of the daily horrors faced by thousands of women, mostly, but not exclusively, in Africa. Although, in theory, female genital mutilation is today legally banned in most countries of the world, the political will and specific actions to combat these practices are still often superficial. This violence against women, just like violence against children, and particularly girls, can only really be reduced through global policies, particularly cooperation policies aimed primarily at combating poverty and all of the inequalities with regard to access to education, health and social rights. In spite of its shortcomings, I cannot but endorse the principles of this report and that is why I voted for this resolution."@en1
