lpv:translated text	". Scientific and technological progress and the positive evolution of civilisations have enabled people’s life expectancies to be prolonged. Now, however, with neoliberal propositions and capitalism’s permanent goal of ever greater profits, governments are tending to give less value to the role of older people and considering an ageing population to be a burden; this is unacceptable. In this motion for a resolution, even though it does not address the root of the problem, namely the reasons for the devaluing of social support, there is a call to fight against older people’s social exclusion and against all forms of age discrimination. It also condemns the reduction in specialist geriatric medicine, the lack of commitment to training those specialised in caring for older people, and the lack of community and home care infrastructure, as well as of care for older people in conditions accessible to all. We therefore endorse this call, but will continue to fight against the causes of this situation and for a real change in policies to favour older people."@en1
