(ANSA) - STRASBOURG, SEPTEMBER 14 - The European Union must remove all the obstacles that LGBTIQ people face in exercising their fundamental rights and ensuring that marriages or partnerships registered in a Member State are recognized in all EU countries, . This is what the MEPs requested in a resolution approved by the plenary assembly of the European Parliament with 387 votes in favor, 161 against and 123 abstentions. In the text, MEPs urge all Member States to recognize as legal parents the adults mentioned in a child's birth certificate and to recognize the right to family reunification of the same couple and their families to avoid the risk of their children becoming stateless in the event that their families move within the EU. In the end,MEPs underline the discrimination faced by LGBTIQ communities in Poland and Hungary and, in this regard, ask the Commission to take further actions such as infringement procedures, judicial measures or budgetary instruments against these countries.
