"Mr President, I would like to congratulate Mrs Panayotopolous-Cassiotou for her perseverance in dealing with matters that are important on more than just a social level, especially in view of the fact that she herself is the mother of nine children. One of the challenges of our time, including in terms of the demographic situation, is to find solutions that will allow people to reconcile bringing up children with studying and starting a career. We are not only simply talking about young women, but about young parents in general, namely both mothers and fathers.
It should be stressed that the current need to complete a higher education course, followed by a PhD or various training courses, and then to start a career and become independent, requires a great deal of effort and that this process usually takes more than four years. On the other hand, one cannot deny the laws of biology. Therefore, young people need conditions that will allow them to start a family, as well as fulfilling their educational and career development goals. We also need a benevolent, family-friendly and non-discriminatory environment, which includes social support, flexible studies and academic internships. In this respect, the Internet will prove to be a very useful tool."@en1
