Recital E
E. whereas the exploitation of irregular migration not only puts the lives of migrants at high risk, but is very often associated with the worst human rights abuses, including slave labour, sexual exploitation, child abuse and gender violence, and whereas action by the EU to prevent such abuses and to protect migrants, including irregular migrants, in situations of distress oftenis therefore necessary and proves vital,
Amendment 115 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3
Paragraph 3
3. Considers that support for politically and economically fragile states, as a source of irregular migration and security and stability tensions, should always include, in addition to budgetary relief and support, direct investment and EU market-access strategies, rural development and food security strategies, job-creation policies, infrastructure development, and strategies geared to promoting democratisation and good governance, social inclusion and religious tolerance, thereby maximising local prospects and alternatives for potential migrants; calls in this connection on the bodies responsible in the EU also to factor in this approach when laying down measures in other policy areas, e.g. when awarding agricultural export subsidies, so that the objectives expressed here are not countered; firmly believes that such strategies must be based on active partnerships which draw on the principles of ownership and empowerment of the beneficiary countries, but also on targets, clear roadmaps and conditions for their achievement co-defined with donor countries, and on benchmarks and strict accountability standards;
