"Madam President, the eastern part of Congo has been involved in war in unstable conditions since the start of the 1990s, and sexual violence is an element of this warfare. Thousands and thousands of women were raped in the period 2006–2007. Furthermore, the number of rapes has not gone down since then either, according to the latest international reports, in which the results of investigations are a lot grimmer than the earlier UN statistics. The most recent cases of mass rape are from this year: Kifaru’s troops, who previously belonged to the Mai–Mai rebels, are suspected of raping more than 60 women in January, and now also, in June, almost 100 women in the Nakiele area. The EU must put heavy pressure on the Congolese Government to bring an end to this situation and to bring the culprits to justice. The United Nations also needs to bring the situation in the region under control."@en1
