"This report deals with an issue that is surely worthy of attention. Women and children are, without doubt, the most vulnerable people during and after wars, because they are often subject to sexual and other abuse, physical mistreatment and psychological violence. Even though the general approach is to be welcomed, since it calls for greater focus on the education and schooling of women in times of war and proposes greater commitment in the field of gynaecological and health care assistance for these vulnerable persons, the report proposes some specific measures with which I do not agree. For example, the creation of a Special EU Representative for Women, Peace and Security, with the ensuing bureaucratic and administrative apparatus, obviously carries an expense that does not seem justifiable, given the existence of an organisation within the UN that already works precisely in the field of sexual violence and armed conflicts. This is a duplication that offers no useful assurances and certainly will carry extra costs compared with today. Another problematic issue – again for budget reasons – is the proposal to open new budget items for Gender Advisors within the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). That is why I decided to abstain on this report."@en1
