lpv:translated text	"− I voted in favour of this report because since the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon in 2009 and the guidelines envisaged by the Stockholm Programme, protection of victims of crime in the EU has been at the top of the EU’s agenda. Closer cooperation among Member States and better coordination of actions in respect of victims would help to reduce the negative impact of crimes and the risk of secondary and repeated victimisation and stigmatisation. All victims, regardless of their origin or the harm suffered, should receive free support, and should be treated with respect in a language they understand. According to the concept of victim, support should also be offered to victims’ children and family members. Both during and after criminal proceedings, it is very important for all possible measures to be taken to protect victims’ private and family life. In particular, attention should be drawn to the media, which often encourages victims to feel vulnerable and disoriented, and we therefore need to ensure that the media pursue self-regulatory measures. In order to avoid unintended discrimination, persons with disabilities, women or children who have suffered a sexual assault, victims of terrorism and organised crime, should not be defined as ‘vulnerable victims’, but as ‘victims with specific needs’ and they should be guaranteed specific protection measures, such as provision of shelter, medical support, legal and psychological counselling."@en1
