Estou a ficar enervada

Devo estar especialmente burra porque não consigo encontrar a proposta de declaração de que se fala (e que a Palmira já por aqui tinha referido há uns dias). Estou a falar da que levou a (mais) uma belíssima e mui oportuna e humana oposição vinda do Vaticano, com origem em França, e que pretende que a Assembleia das Nações Unidas faça passar um texto em que se proponha o fim da criminalização da homossexualidade. Pelo que vi escrito no El País é um texto com 13 parágrafos e aquele que está a causar engulhos ao Vaticano é muuuuito, muuuito ofensivo, já que «(...) se pide a los países que tomen "las medidas necesarias, administrativas y legislativas, para garantizar que la orientación sexual y la identidad de género no sean bajo ninguna circunstancia causa de sanción penal, en particular ejecución, arresto o detención"». Como não me canso de defender, nada como ir às fontes...Palmira, minha deusa da "linkagem", serás que és tu que me vais tirar da aflição descobrindo-me o texto original da bendita declaração?

E é a isto que o Vaticano se está a opor?

 

UN STATEMENT

We have the honour to make this statement on human rights, sexual orientation and gender identity on behalf of […]

1 - We reaffirm the principle of universality of human rights, as enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights whose 60th anniversary is celebrated this year, Article 1 of which proclaims that “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights”;

2 - We reaffirm that everyone is entitled to the enjoyment of human rights without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status, as set out in Article 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 2 of the International Covenants on Civil and Political, Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, as well as in article 26 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights;

3 - We reaffirm the principle of non-discrimination which requires that human rights apply equally to every human being regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity;

4 - We are deeply concerned by violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms based on sexual orientation or gender identity;

5 - We are also disturbed that violence, harassment, discrimination, exclusion, stigmatisation and prejudice are directed against persons in all countries in the world because of sexual orientation or gender identity, and that these practices undermine the integrity and dignity of those subjected to these abuses;

6 - We condemn the human rights violations based on sexual orientation or gender identity wherever they occur, in particular the use of the death penalty on this ground, extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, the practice of torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment, arbitrary arrest or detention and deprivation of economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to health;

7 - We recall the statement in 2006 before the Human Rights Council by fifty four countries requesting the President of the Council to provide an opportunity, at an appropriate future session of the Council, for discussing these violations;

8 - We commend the attention paid to these issues by special procedures of the Human Rights Council and treaty bodies and encourage them to continue to integrate consideration of human rights violations based on sexual orientation or gender identity within their relevant mandates;

9 - We welcome the adoption of Resolution AG/RES. 2435 (XXXVIII-O/08) on “Human Rights, Sexual Orientation, and Gender Identity” by the General Assembly of the Organization of American States during its 38th session in 3 June 2008;

10 - We call upon all States and relevant international human rights mechanisms to commit to promote and protect human rights of all persons, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity;

11 - We urge States to take all the necessary measures, in particular legislative or administrative, to ensure that sexual orientation or gender identity may under no circumstances be the basis for criminal penalties, in particular executions, arrests or detention.

12 - We urge States to ensure that human rights violations based on sexual orientation or gender identity are investigated and perpetrators held accountable and brought to justice;

13 - We urge States to ensure adequate protection of human rights defenders, and remove obstacles which prevent them from carrying out their work on issues of human rights and sexual orientation and gender identity.
