Parliament adopted three resolutions on human rights, covering cases in China, Türkiye, and Iraq, each calling for specific actions from authorities.

  • Uyghur detainees in China: Parliament demanded the release of Ilham Tohti, Gulshan Abbas, and other detained Uyghurs, urging China to close camps and respect religious freedom, while backing EU sanctions.
  • Journalist Bülent Mumay in Türkiye: MEPs condemned the imprisonment of journalist Bülent Mumay and harassment of media, calling on Türkiye to end repression and ensure judicial independence, linking EU relations to rights.
  • Women's rights in Iraq: Parliament urged Iraq's parliament to reject Personal Status Law amendments that would legalize child marriage, and to adopt a domestic violence law, forwarding the resolution to authorities.
