"Mr President, the European Union’s policy in the field of human rights should shape the European Neighbourhood Policy and also become an effective instrument in today’s global civilisation for the protection of people threatened by genocide and war crimes, people fighting for democracy and fundamental freedoms and all those who experience discrimination due to ethnic origin, religious beliefs, gender, disability or sexual orientation.
Human rights policy cannot apply double standards – one approach for small countries and a different one for large countries that are of strategic importance to the European Union. The policy should be effective. In view of this, the European Initiative for Democracy and Human Rights takes on particular importance, as does increasing the budget of this institution. The European Parliament must take on the responsibility for raising the importance of human rights protection in the European Union. It must become a place where new initiatives in this field will emerge, and the institution which coordinates the human rights actions of the different Union institutions."@en1
