"Mr President, the measure of any society is how we protect those who cannot protect themselves. There are very few situations where there is an absolute right and an absolute wrong, but where the exploitation and abuse of children is concerned there is no confusion. It is the worst kind of crime. We must do all we can at every level, national, European and global, to eradicate it and punish those that seek to do children harm.
Arguments on freedom of expression and the right to privacy cease to be relevant in this context, and when we ask ourselves what needs to be done to stop the abuse it is quite simple: everything humanly possible. We need to work with internet companies and providers, social media, schools, parents, communities and police authorities. We need to block search results that lead to child abuse. We need to identify illegal images and take them down. We need to capture and prosecute perpetrators and provide justice for victims, and to give ourselves the tools to do so. Then we need to offer victims the necessary help and assistance to feel safe again. There are too many dark corners in the internet, and the most heinous of crimes are committed there. Children need a united voice committed to protecting them and their childhood."@en1
