"I voted in favour of the Council’s position on the European Protection Order. This project is ambitious. It is precisely because it is ambitious that it has taken so long to come to fruition. Today, we have reached a satisfactory compromise, which will finally enable us to ensure broad geographical protection for European citizens who are the victims of crime. The main disagreement relating to the legal basis has been resolved. Judgments relating to criminal matters will be the only ones covered by a European Protection Order. Parliament has agreed to devote another text to civil cases. However, Parliament will see to it that this text respects the spirit and the letter of what it demands. We will not allow the directive on the use of the European Protection Order in civil cases to be weaker than the one we have on the table today regarding criminal cases. Finally, there is one thing we can be pleased about: we have made sure that the word ‘dignity’ is included in the text. It is a difficult word to define, and I can understand certain people’s reluctance to include it in the text, but it is a necessary evil, for the hardest thing for victims of crime is regaining their stolen dignity."@en1
