"Madam President, the serious human rights violations that have taken place in Congo, especially those against women, are to be utterly condemned. Physical violence against women is one of the most serious breaches of human rights.
What makes an act especially serious in Congo is when the perpetrators of crimes are still soldiers in the country’s army. The victims of mass rape in Congo are also entire families and communities. This outrageous crime will leave permanent scars on young women and girls for the rest of their lives. Those responsible must definitely be made to answer for what they have done.
Alongside the criminal investigations, it will be very important to protect the victims from being stigmatised and to offer them adequate help in their crisis, as well as legal and psychological support. Violence against women must be condemned in all its forms, and there should be more human rights education as a component of military training everywhere."@en1
