lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, after East Timor, Somalia, Kosovo and Congo, can we really see what is happening in Haiti and Liberia as exceptional? Wherever the UN goes it seems that sexual abuse occurs against the civilians they are supposed to protect. Kofi Annan has been the Secretary-General of the UN and its peacekeeping forces for many years while this abuse by UN personnel, for whom he bears responsibility, has been taking place. He has done nothing about it. Instead, he allows it to be covered up, as an internal UN report on sexual abuse in East Timor demonstrates. Though sexual abuse has been a problem there since the arrival of the UN in 1999, not one UN staff contractor or soldier has been brought to justice, even when it involved East Timorese children. The Pope and the Vatican are held responsible for sexual abuse by priests, so why does the same principle not apply to Kofi Annan and the UN? Mr Annan will retire soon to great honours and a generous pension. I hope his successor will take sexual abuse seriously."@en⁴

Kan vi virkelig efter Østtimor, Somalia, Kosovo og Congo opfatte det, der sker i Haiti og Liberia, som enestående? Uanset hvor FN tager hen, lader det til, at der sker seksuelle overgreb mod den civilbefolkning, som de forventes at beskytte. Kofi Annan har været generalsekretær for FN og dets fredsbevarende styrker i mange år, mens FN-ansatte, som han har ansvar for, har udøvet dette misbrug. Han har ikke gjort noget som helst ved det. Tværtimod tillader han, at der dækkes over det, hvilket en intern FN-rapport om seksuelt misbrug i Østtimor viser. Selv om seksuelt misbrug har været et problem i området siden FN's ankomst i 1999, er ikke en eneste FN-ansat eller FN-soldat blevet retsforfulgt, heller ikke selv om sagen har drejet sig om østtimoriske børn. Paven og Vatikanet stilles til ansvar for præsters seksuelle misbrug, så hvorfor gælder det samme princip ikke for Kofi Annan og FN? Hr. Annan trækker sig snart tilbage med stor ære og en klækkelig pension. Jeg håber, at hans efterfølger vil tage seksuelt misbrug alvorligt."@da² "Herr Präsident! Können wir nach Osttimor, Somalia, dem Kosovo und dem Kongo das, was gerade in Haiti und Liberia geschieht, wirklich als Ausnahme bezeichnen? Wo auch immer UN-Truppen im Einsatz sind, scheint die Zivilbevölkerung, die eigentlich unter dem Schutz der UN-Truppen steht, Opfer sexuellen Missbrauchs zu werden. Kofi Annan ist seit vielen Jahren Generalsekretär der UN und damit ihrer Friedenstruppen, und in seine Amtszeit fällt der Missbrauch durch UN-Personal, für das er die Verantwortung trägt. Er ist nicht eingeschritten. Stattdessen lässt er es zu, dass diese Dinge vertuscht werden, wie ein interner Bericht der Vereinten Nationen über sexuellen Missbrauch in Osttimor zeigt. Obwohl sexueller Missbrauch dort bereits seit der Ankunft der UN im Jahr 1999 ein Problem darstellt, wurde nicht ein einziger Mitarbeiter oder Soldat der UN vor Gericht gestellt, nicht einmal in den Fällen, bei denen Kinder aus Osttimor betroffen waren. Den Papst und den Vatikan macht man für Fälle sexuellen Missbrauchs durch Priester verantwortlich; warum also wendet man nicht dasselbe Prinzip auf Kofi Annan und die UN an? Herr Annan wird bald in großen Ehren und mit einer großzügigen Rente aus seinem Amt scheiden. Ich hoffe, sein Nachfolger wird das Thema des sexuellen Missbrauchs ernst nehmen."@de⁹ "Κύριε Πρόεδρε, μετά το Ανατολικό Τιμόρ, τη Σομαλία, το Κοσσυφοπέδιο και το Κονγκό, μπορούμε πραγματικά να θεωρήσουμε εξαίρεση αυτά που συμβαίνουν στην Αϊτή και τη Λιβερία; Οπουδήποτε πηγαίνει ο ΟΗΕ, φαίνεται ότι καταγράφονται περιστατικά σεξουαλικής κακοποίησης κατά των πολιτών που υποτίθεται ότι προστατεύουν. Ο Κόφι Ανάν διετέλεσε Γενικός Γραμματέας του ΟΗΕ και των ειρηνευτικών δυνάμεών του για πολλά χρόνια ενώ συνέβαιναν αυτά τα περιστατικά κακοποίησης από το προσωπικό του ΟΗΕ, για το οποίο ευθύνεται ο ίδιος. Δεν έκανε τίποτα γι’ αυτό. Αντίθετα, επιτρέπει τη συγκάλυψή τους, όπως καταδεικνύει μια εσωτερική έκθεση του ΟΗΕ για τη σεξουαλική κακοποίηση στο Ανατολικό Τιμόρ. Παρόλο που η σεξουαλική κακοποίηση αποτελεί πρόβλημα στην περιοχή από την άφιξη του ΟΗΕ το 1999, δεν προσήχθη στη δικαιοσύνη ούτε ένα μέλος του προσωπικού ή στρατιώτης του ΟΗΕ, ακόμα και στις περιπτώσεις που εμπλέκονταν παιδιά από το Ανατολικό Τιμόρ. Ο Πάπας και το Βατικανό θεωρούνται υπεύθυνοι για σεξουαλική κακοποίηση που τελούν ιερείς, επομένως γιατί δεν ισχύει το ίδιο για τον Κόφι Ανάν και τον ΟΗΕ; Ο κ. Ανάν θα αποχωρήσει σύντομα με υψηλές τιμές και γενναιόδωρη σύνταξη. Ελπίζω ότι ο διάδοχός του θα λάβει σοβαρά υπόψη το θέμα της σεξουαλικής κακοποίησης."@el¹⁰ "Señor Presidente, tras los sucesos de Timor Oriental, Somalia, Kosovo y el Congo, ¿realmente se puede calificar de excepcional la situación reinante en Haití y Liberia? Dondequiera que vayan las misiones de la ONU, parece que se cometen abusos contra la población civil que se supone deben proteger. Kofi Annan ha sido el Secretario General de esta organización y de sus fuerzas de mantenimiento de paz durante muchos años, en los cuales se han estado produciendo estos abusos por parte del personal de las Naciones Unidas del que él es responsable. Y no ha hecho nada al respecto. En su lugar, permite que estos casos se encubran, tal y como demuestra un informe de las Naciones Unidas sobre los abusos sexuales en Timor Oriental. A pesar de que los abusos sexuales son un problema en el país desde la llegada de las Naciones Unidas en 1999, no se ha juzgado a ningún miembro del personal ni a ningún soldado, ni siquiera cuando las víctimas eran menores. Si el Papa y el Vaticano son responsables de los abusos sexuales cometidos por los sacerdotes, ¿por qué no se aplica el mismo principio a Kofi Annan y la ONU? El señor Annan se jubilará pronto con grandes honores y una pensión generosa. Espero que su sucesor se tome en serio el problema de los abusos sexuales."@es²⁰ "Mr President, after East Timor, Somalia, Kosovo and Congo, can we really see what is happening in Haiti and Liberia as exceptional?

Kaikkialla, minne YK menee, näyttää tapahtuvan niiden siviilien seksuaalista hyväksikäyttöä, joita sen olisi tarkoitus suojella. Kofi Annan on ollut YK:n ja sen rauhanturvajoukkojen pääsihteeri monien vuosien ajan, kun hänen vastuullaan oleva YK:n henkilökunta on syyllistynyt hyväksikäyttöön. Hän ei ole tehnyt asialle mitään. Hän sallii sitä vastoin toiminnan peittelyn, kuten YK:n sisäinen raportti seksuaalisesta hyväksikäytöstä Itä-Timorissa osoittaa. Vaikka seksuaalinen hyväksikäyttö on ollut siellä ongelma YK:n saapumisesta lähtien vuonna 1999, yhtään YK:n henkilökuntaan kuuluvaa urakoitsijaa tai sotilasta ei ole tuotu oikeuden eteen, ei edes kun oli kyse itätimorilaisista lapsista. Paavia ja Vatikaania pidetään vastuullisina seksuaalisesta hyväksikäytöstä, johon papit ovat syyllistyneet, joten miksi samaa periaatetta ei sovelleta Kofi Annaniin ja YK:hon? Pääsihteeri Annan jää pian eläkkeelle suuresti arvostettuna ja saa korkeaa eläkettä. Toivon, että hänen seuraajansa suhtautuu seksuaaliseen hyväksikäyttöön vakavasti."@fi⁷ "Monsieur le Président, après le Timor oriental, la Somalie, le Kosovo et le Congo, pouvons-nous réellement considérer ce qui se passe à Haïti et au Liberia comme des cas isolés? Où que se rendent les soldats des Nations unies, il semble se produire des abus sexuels à l’encontre des civils qu’ils sont supposés protéger. Kofi Annan a été secrétaire général de l’ONU et de ses forces de maintien de la paix pendant de nombreuses années, pendant lesquelles le personnel des Nations unies, dont il est responsable, s’adonnait à cet abus. Il n’a rien fait à ce propos. Au lieu de cela, il a permis que ces actes soient couverts, comme le démontre un rapport interne des Nations unies sur les abus sexuels au Timor oriental. Si les abus sexuels ont posé un problème là-bas depuis l’arrivée des forces de l’ONU, aucun soldat ou fournisseur de personnel de l’ONU n’a été traduit en justice, même lorsque les cas concernaient des enfants au Timor oriental. Le Pape et le Vatican sont tenus pour responsables des abus sexuels commis par des prêtres, pourquoi le même principe ne s’appliquerait-il pas à Kofi Annan et aux Nations unies? M. Annan prendra bientôt sa retraite avec tous les honneurs et une pension généreuse. J’espère que son successeur prendra les abus sexuels au sérieux."@fr⁸ "Mr President, after East Timor, Somalia, Kosovo and Congo, can we really see what is happening in Haiti and Liberia as exceptional?

Ovunque si rechi l’ONU pare si verifichino abusi sessuali ai danni dei civili che dovrebbe proteggere. Kofi Annan è stato Segretario generale delle Nazioni Unite e delle forze di pace dell’ONU per molti anni, mentre si verificavano questi abusi ad opera del personale ONU sotto la sua responsabilità. Egli non ha fatto nulla al riguardo. Anzi, ha permesso che i fatti venissero insabbiati, come dimostra un rapporto interno ONU sugli abusi sessuali a Timor Est. Sebbene questo genere di abusi sia stato un problema in quell’area fin dall’arrivo dei Caschi Blu nel 1999, nessun membro civile o soldato dell’ONU è stato portato in giudizio, neppure quando tali abusi hanno riguardato bambini di Timor Est. Il Papa e il Vaticano sono considerati responsabili degli abusi sessuali perpetrati da sacerdoti, perciò perché lo stesso principio non si applica anche a Kofi Annan e all’ONU? Kofi Annan si ritirerà ben presto con grandi onori ed una generosa pensione. Spero che il suo successore prenderà gli abusi sessuali in seria considerazione."@it¹² "Mr President, after East Timor, Somalia, Kosovo and Congo, can we really see what is happening in Haiti and Liberia as exceptional?

Waar de VN ook naar toe gaat, er wordt seksueel misbruik gepleegd met als slachtoffer de burgers die de VN geacht wordt te beschermen. Kofi Annan is jarenlang secretaris-generaal van de VN en de VN-vredeshandhavers geweest en al die tijd heeft het VN-personeel, waar hij verantwoordelijk voor was, zich aan misbruik schuldig gemaakt. Hij heeft daar niets aan gedaan. Integendeel, hij staat toe dat het wordt toegedekt, zoals blijkt uit een VN-rapport over seksueel misbruik in Oost-Timor. Ofschoon seksueel misbruik daar al een probleem is sinds de komst van de VN in 1999, is niet één van de degenen die personeel voor de VN aanwerven en niet één soldaat voor de rechtbank gedaagd, zelfs niet toen kinderen het slachtoffer waren op Oost-Timor. Als de paus en het Vaticaan verantwoording moeten afleggen voor seksueel misbruik door priesters, waarom zou dan hetzelfde principe niet gelden voor Kofi Annan en de VN? De heer Annan zal spoedig met groot eerbetoon en een royale uitkering met pensioen gaan. Ik hoop dat zijn opvolger seksueel misbruik serieus zal nemen."@nl³ "Mr President, after East Timor, Somalia, Kosovo and Congo, can we really see what is happening in Haiti and Liberia as exceptional?

Onde quer que haja um destacamento das tropas da ONU, parecem verificar-se abusos sexuais contra os civis que estas são supostas proteger. Kofi Annan é o Secretário-Geral das Nações Unidas e das suas forças de manutenção da paz desde há muitos anos, e foi durante este período que ocorreram estes actos criminosos por parte do pessoal da ONU, por quem ele é responsável. Kofi Annan nada fez a esse respeito. Bem pelo contrário, permite que os factos sejam encobertos, como o demonstra um relatório interno da ONU sobre actos de abuso sexual em Timor Leste. Muito embora os abusos sexuais tenham constituído um problema em Timor Leste desde a chegada das tropas da ONU em 1999, não houve um único elemento do pessoal contratado ou das forças da ONU que tenha sido levado perante a justiça, nem mesmo quando os casos envolviam crianças timorenses. O Papa e o Vaticano são chamados à responsabilidade por abusos sexuais cometidos por padres; por que razão esse mesmo princípio não se aplica a Kofi Annan e às Nações Unidas? O Sr. Annan em breve se aposentará, com grandes honras e uma generosa pensão. Espero que o seu sucessor encare com seriedade o problema dos abusos sexuais."@pt¹⁷ "Mr President, after East Timor, Somalia, Kosovo and Congo, can we really see what is happening in Haiti and Liberia as exceptional?

Efter Östtimor, Somalia, Kosovo och Kongo, hur kan vi se händelserna på Haiti och i Liberia som undantagsfall? Var än FN befinner sig verkar det som om de civilpersoner som de ska skydda utsätts för sexuella övergrepp. Kofi Annan har varit generalsekreterare för FN och de fredsbevarande styrkorna under många år medan dessa övergrepp har begåtts av FN-personal, som han ansvarar för. Han har inte gjort någonting åt det. I stället låter han händelserna tystas ned, enligt en intern FN-rapport om sexuella övergrepp i Östtimor. Trots att sexuella övergrepp har förekommit i Östtimor sedan FN kom dit 1999 har inte en enda FN-anställd eller soldat ställts inför rätta, inte ens då det handlade om östtimoresiska barn. Påven och Vatikanen hålls ansvariga för sexuella övergrepp som begås av präster, så varför gäller inte samma regler för Kofi Annan och FN? Kofi Annan kommer snart att avgå och få ta emot stora hyllningar och en frikostig pension. Jag hoppas att hans efterträdare kommer att ta problemet med sexuella övergrepp på allvar."@sv²¹
