"Mr President, let me start by saying that human rights are universal, indivisible and interdependent, and it is indispensable that the EU puts this at the forefront of all its policies. In this respect, I condemn the ongoing attempts to undermine the universality and indivisibility of human rights, in particular with a resolution on so-called traditional values. I welcome the focus of the resolution we will vote on tomorrow in advance of the UNHRC on minority rights, including LGBT rights. I thank the Commission for supporting the regional meeting on violence and discrimination against LGBT people (even though the Commission is not represented here) co-organised by the French Government in Paris in March, and I hope that this is a sign that the Commission is starting to bring forward an LGBT rights roadmap. I take this opportunity to congratulate the work of Navi Pillay, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and I encourage our colleague Stavros Lambrinidis to work closely with her to continue to contribute to the EU’s leadership on this vital issue."@en1
