lpv:translated text	"The objective set by the EU 2020 strategy to reduce the number of Europeans living below the poverty line by 25%, which is more than 20 million people, must contribute to the development of national policies which will protect citizens against the risk of poverty. Women constitute a large section of the population threatened by poverty due to unemployment (with the unemployment rate rising from 7.4% in 2008 to 9% in 2009), unshared caring responsibilities, precarious, low paid jobs, wage discrimination and smaller pensions. In Romania, 25% of women live in poverty (compared with an average European level of 17%), as well as 33% of children. Romania has the European Union’s second highest rate of people living in poverty at 23% of the population. The minimum salary barely amounts to EUR 140, while the average gross salary does not exceed EUR 460. I call on Member States to take concrete measures which will be aimed at creating decent, sustainable jobs and will promote appropriate income and social protection schemes for preventing and reducing poverty, especially extreme poverty, and also to devise medium- and long-term strategies which will take the gender aspect into account and be integrated in all relevant policy areas."@en1
