"Genital mutilation has been carried out on 140 million women and girls in accordance with traditional practice, and every year a further three million girls are threatened with this painful intervention, which has significant health repercussions. Migration has brought the problem of genital mutilation to Europe. Even second generation migrants living in Europe are often powerless to prevent this intervention. I agree with the motion for a resolution that genital mutilation is an act of violence against women and girls that represents a violation of their fundamental rights, in particular their right to personal safety and integrity and physical and psychological health, and an attack on their sexual and reproductive health and that it constitutes child abuse in the case of under-age girls and cannot be justified by invoking different cultural traditions or initiation rituals."@en1
