European Parliament Resolution on the second European Roma summit
The European Parliament adopted, on Thursday (25.03.2010), a resolution on the second European Roma summit . It is said that policy failings regarding the social inclusion of the Roma people must be examined critically, given the "unsatisfactory progress" to date. Policy commitments need to emerge from the second European Roma summit taking place in Córdoba on 8 April, believe MEPs. The Parliament has been calling for a Roma inclusion strategy since 2008. In a resolution tabled by all seven EP political groups and adopted by 572 votes to 28, with 23 abstentions, MEPs condemn the "recent rise of anti-Gypsyism in several EU Member States".
