"Madam President, I come from a country in which hundreds of thousands of people work and live in third-world circumstances, even though that country, Hungary, is not in the third world: it is in the European Union.
These people work on the assembly lines of mainly foreign-owned companies, for about EUR 250 a month. They work in warehouses and food stores, also for EUR 250 a month. They can be fired overnight; they do not have any legal protection in terms of labour law.
So my questions to the High Representative are as follows – and I would very much appreciate it if, as an exception to her normal rules, she would give real answers to real questions. Is this new EU Representative for Human Rights going to examine cases of human rights violations within the European Union? My second question is: do you regard labour rights as human rights and, if so, how are the mass violations of human rights in Hungary going to be examined, and on the basis of what proceedings, by this new representative?"@en1
