"Madam President, the phenomenon of trafficking in and the movement of women is a problem with global dimensions which arises even more acutely during the organisation of sports events. Obviously, with this problem, there can be no discrimination between forced and 'voluntary' prostitution, because both forms have the same root: they are caused by deep poverty and social exclusion, phenomena which lead women to the limits of exploitation. However, from a legal point of view also, when the victim comes before the courts, how can a distinction be made between forced prostitution and prostitution and how can sanctions be imposed on the person behind them?
It is vital that it be made clear that sports events must be safeguarded in the conscience of all of us as roadmaps of values and cultures. Each and everything that sullies such cultural meetings must be abolished. I believe that the proposals you just mentioned, Mr Frattini, and Mrs Prets' proposals, lay down a serious framework at European and international level."@en1
