"Mr President, in today’s resolution, the European Parliament condemns the practice of forced abortions and sterilisations in China. The official family planning policy which allows families to have only one child and leads to abortions of female children violates human rights and the integrity of the female body, and deserves the strongest criticism and political intervention. Coercive measures used against women forcing them into abortions, as well as pressure and intimidation, are inhumane instruments of pressure used on mothers to rid themselves of their children. The case of Ms Feng Jianmei shows that forced abortions of foetuses that could be capable of independent existence outside their mother’s body also take place. Between 90% and 95% of seven month old babies born in Europe have a chance of survival, which means they are no longer foetuses, but fully formed human beings. This cannot be tolerated or considered normal procedure within official family planning policy. Our protest should not be limited to words, but should translate into concrete action."@en1
