Amendment 13 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3 a (new)
(3 a) Furthermore, an official and encompassing human rights and security dialogue should be pursued with Kuwait and Qatar, which should take place at least on an annual basis. This dialogue should lead to significant and tangible improvements and achievements, in particular in the field of gender equality, LGBTQ+ rights, worker's and labour rights, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, media freedom, the abolishment of the death penalty, prohibition of torture and the right to assembly. The security aspect of the dialogue should in particular focus on cooperation on combatting terrorism. The bilateral agreements on visa waiver between the Union and Kuwait and between the Union and Qatar should include explicit and concrete commitments to these aims.
