lpv:translated text	"We should not only monitor obligations and rules governing adherence to human rights in the EU, but take into account the specificities of separate countries. For example, in Latvia, the parliament, by recommendation of the government, decided to increase the retirement age of Latvians just because of lack of funds in the social budget while ignoring the fact that, if Latvians retire at the age of 65, then the majority of them will not live to retirement age because the average age is 68 years for men in Latvia. What is more, after 55, it is very difficult to find a decent and well-paid job. I think that step by the Latvian Government and parliament violates the fundamental rights and freedoms of Latvian people since they are subject to unequal conditions in comparison to pensioners in France, Germany and other EU countries, where the average life duration is 80 years old, and the retirement age is 65. It means that on average, throughout the EU, a pensioner receives a pension for 15 years, but in Latvia, from one to three years. To stop injustice it is necessary to take immediate measures on the reallocation of EU social funds in order to level the difference in pensions between old Member States and new Member States."@en1
