lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, Daesh has been systematically killing, torturing, kidnapping and sexually enslaving members of minority groups, including Christians and Yazidis, in Iraq and Syria. Only this week, 400 people were killed or kidnapped by them in Syria, and today it was confirmed that the oldest Christian monastery in Iraq was razed to the ground. But we should also have other areas – like Pakistan and Afghanistan, where the Taliban have been rebranding into Daesh – on our radar. The EU and the UN must take urgent action to protect the Shias, Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Christians and other minority groups there from extremist attacks. My West Midlands colleague Rob Flello MP has been pressing the UK Government to call on the UN to treat the Daesh atrocities against religious minorities as a genocide. I urge you, High Representative, to back this initiative. Many voices at the UN speak louder than one, and this will help send a clear message to members of Daesh that they will face justice for the atrocities that they are committing now."@en1
