"Madam President, I am the last speaker in this debate and I have to say that there is really little to be said that other colleagues have not said. It is deplorable, at this time in the 21st century European Union, that many of our citizens live in fear of discrimination, abuse and hate crimes simply because of their religion.
As Vice—President responsible for Parliament’s dialogue with religions, I have been meeting religious leaders from across the European Union including, of course, Jewish leaders. We are hearing stories that send shivers down our spine of children being afraid to go to school and families contemplating leaving Europe because of the fears that they have. I was therefore happy this week to contribute to the launch of the OSCE’s practical guide to combating anti-Semitism. This work should help public authorities to take the necessary steps to ensure the safety and security of our religious communities. This is absolutely vital and I fully support this resolution."@en1
