Weibliche #Genitalverstümmelung ist eine massive Menschenrechts- und Körperverletzung. In Österreich leben 6000 – 8000 betroffene Frauen/Mädchen, ein Drittel davon in Wien. Das Thema verdient unsere maximale Aufmerksamkeit. #FGM #endFGM #ZeroToleranceForFGM
Together with European Commissioner Helena Dalli and my colleague MEP Evelyn Regner, we made a video with an important message. We want zero tolerance for FGM. We must develop a European strategy that brings real change. #EndFGM

On female circumcision:
Qur'an: No results
Sunnah: No credible results
Clerics e.g. Dar al-Ifta: 'Harmful, forbidden, un-Islamic'
Yet, proponents: 'It's part of our religion & culture, and thus obligatory'
Enough. #ZeroToleranceforFGM bc it's un-Islamic & harms girls & women.
