"Mr President, we, as the European Union, have an obligation to protect the fundamental rights of all citizens. It goes without saying that we must do so within each of our 27 Member States, but we must also do our best to protect those citizens residing in non-EU States. It is our duty to call for the basic rights of Pakistani women and children to be protected. Malala Yousafzai, a 14-year-old girl who was attacked because of her outspoken call for women’s education, is just the latest victim of violence and oppression against women in Pakistan. Pakistan has made efforts to curb violence, passing laws in the fight against discrimination and violence against women. We must do our part to show Pakistan that this is not enough. The Global Gender Gap Index still rates Pakistan as the third most dangerous place in the world for women. The Union must show its strength and ensure that EU-provided assistance, trade and development aid is conditional upon Pakistan’s ability to ensure basic protection and rights for its citizens. Pakistan must continue to make strides by providing proper education and safety for women."@en1
