"A tough EU arms export policy has never been more vital. I back efforts to prevent arms getting into the wrong hands. I demand EU Member States do more to prevent arms being exported to repressive regimes, terrorists and criminals.
Transparency in the EUR 20 billion European arms industry is long overdue. The Arms Trade Treaty requires an assessment of all exports to stop weapons ending up in conflicts fuelling genocide and human rights abuses.
The unregulated trade in arms has had a devastating effect on peace and stability around the world. Proper implementation of the UN agreement starts with a coordinated EU approach to regulate the arms industry.
As a human rights and children’s rights champion I demand that the EU do whatever it takes to prevent European arms contributing to death and suffering in the world."@en1
