lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am struck by the similarities between these reports. Mr van den Bos has just pointed out that conditions for women in the developing countries are appalling for a variety of reasons. At the same time, I remembered that Mrs Martens’ report states that women in developing countries are often discriminated against in terms of access to food, health care, education, training, decision-making, participation in regional programmes and economic activities, as well as property rights. It is of course precisely the same as in the EU Member States. Perhaps the degree of discrimination is not as great in the EU but, as we say in Sweden, ‘there are differences of degree in hell’. The report also makes it clear that remedying a lack of equality and strengthening the role and rights of women are crucial to social justice and development. That is something which applies to both developing and industrialised countries and within both the EU and its Member States."@en1
