"I voted in favour of Ms Nicolai’s report on women’s situation in war. It seems to me important that the European Parliament focuses its attention on the impact of armed conflict on women, especially the sexual violence they may suffer. Used as a weapon of war, rape is a war crime: it is therefore our duty to condemn it and to ensure that those who commit it are prosecuted, tried and punished for their acts. The effects of sexual violence, both physical and psychological, are traumatic and devastating for the victims, who are often stigmatised and rejected by their communities. A further section of this report concerns the role of women in conflicts and peace negotiations. A more important role for women in the military, in civilian peacekeeping operations and in peace negotiations would have added value in political dialogue and the empowerment of women in regions in conflict."@en1
