This procedure calls for increased EU action to protect and support women's rights defenders in Saudi Arabia. It highlights the risks they face and urges the EU to use all available diplomatic and political tools to advocate for their release and safety.

The European Parliament wants the EU to publicly and privately condemn repression against these defenders. It also calls for sanctions against those responsible for human rights violations and for increased support for civil society organisations working on women's rights.
