"The first concern of the report is, curiously, women’s participation in peace negotiations on the basis, amongst other things, of a sexist stereotype: men make war, women are better at talking. So be it. Only then is there the denunciation of the situation of women in times of war, and particularly the rapes to which they increasingly fall victim, rapes which have become, in certain parts of the world, fully-fledged weapons of war. The rapporteur asks for these rapes to be considered as war crimes and for there to be no impunity for those who commit them. She is quite right. However, I seem to remember that there is a ‘law of war’, which, shocking as that term may seem, has maintained that for a long time. The rapporteur also asks for the ‘adverse effects of armed conflict on family life’ to be limited. Frankly, I do not know what to make of a remark like that. Simple naivety? Good intentions? The only way to limit such consequences is to avoid war."@en1
