“There are multiple definitions of rape within the European Union; yet murder, another of the most serious crimes, is universally understood as intentionally taking the life of another. How can we justify this differentiation when it comes to rape? In the EU, we condemn rape when it is used as crime of war - we must also be consistent and clear when it comes dealing with this crime during peacetime.”
Rape must be included in EU rules to combat violence against women.
This is our cross-party Press Release following our meeting with Council and Commission negotiators today on a new law to combat violence against women.
Stop rape. Protect women and their dignity.
