"Mr President, the situation of fundamental rights in the EU is wholly unacceptable. Compassionate protection and the promotion of rights to life, dignity and freedoms, such as asylum, are being undermined, if not ignored, in the current context of the ongoing humanitarian refugee crisis. Rather than approaching this crisis with humanity, a fortress Europe is heavily financed, and indecent and dehumanising language, border fences, tear gas, religious discrimination and the shirking of responsibility are comfortably adopted.
Only the solemn protection of fundamental rights can resolve this crisis. That can be accomplished by providing safe and legal access, scrapping the Dublin Regulations, and empowering and encouraging Member States to take a progressive and humane approach to the most pressing humanitarian crisis the world faces. Clearly we will not uphold fundamental human rights or resolve the refugee crisis by dropping more bombs on Syria. Enforcing fundamental human rights is crucially important, and therefore I thank the rapporteur and the shadows for their sterling work."@en1
