Considerando que cerca de 14 millones de personas en la Unión Europea y entre el 1 y el 3 % de la población mundial total sufre de fibromialgia, un síndrome debilitante que causa dolores crónicos generalizados, B. Considerando que, aunque la Organización Mundial de la Salud reconoció la fibromialgia como enfer­ medad ya en 1992, esta patología no está incluida en el índice oficial de patologías en la UE, lo cual impide a los pacientes obtener un diagnóstico oficial, C. Considerando que las personas que sufren de fibromialgia acuden con más frecuencia al médico de cabe­ cera, son remitidos con mayor frecuencia a especialistas, reciben más certificados de baja por enfermedad y son hospitalizados con mayor frecuencia, lo que genera una carga económica considerable para la UE, D. Considerando que los pacientes de fibromialgia tienen que luchar por llevar una vida plena e indepen­ diente, a menos que tengan acceso a un tratamiento y un apoyo adecuados, 1. Pide al Consejo y a la Comisión que: — desarrollen una estrategia comunitaria sobre la fibromialgia con objeto de que esta patología sea recono­ cido como enfermedad; — contribuyan a la sensibilización sobre esta patología y faciliten el acceso a la información para profesio­ nales y pacientes, apoyando las campañas de la UE y nacionales de sensibilización; — alienten a los Estados miembros a mejorar el acceso al diagnóstico y al tratamiento; — promuevan la investigación sobre la fibromialgia mediante los programas de trabajo del Séptimo Programa Marco de Investigación y Desarrollo Tecnológico y futuros programas de investigación; — promuevan el desarrollo de programas para la recopilación de datos sobre la fibromialgia; 2.

    Ref. Ares(2016)626783 - 04/02/2016 European Parliament Brussels, 29 January 2016 Dear First Vice-President Timmermans, High Representative/Vice-President Mogherini, On 27 January, renowned Turkish journalists Can Dündar and Erdem Gül have been informed that they both faced one aggravated life sentence, one ordinary life sentence and 30 years in jail on charges of revealing state secrets. These claims are based on an article Dündar published in Cumhuriyet newspaper, a major Turkish newspaper of which Gül was the Ankara bureau chief. The article claims to show proof that a consignment of weapons from the Turkish government seized at the border in January 2014 was bound for Islamist rebels in Syria. Similar penalties are usually reserved for cases involving violent crimes. As such they have a chilling effect on press freedom and freedom of expression in Turkey. The indictment prepared by Istanbul Deputy Chief Public Prosecutor ¡rfan Fidan accuses Dündar and Gül of "gathering secret state documents for the purposes of political and military espionage," "attempting to topple the government of the Republic of Turkey or attempting to stop either partially or totally the government from fulfilling its duties" and "deliberate support for a terrorist organization without being a member." The two men are accused of being "accomplices" of a so- called Gülenist Terror Organization/Parallel State Structure (FETÖ/PDY). According to the indictment, the purpose of the report published in Cumhuriyet was "to create the perception in Turkey and in the world that Turkey was helping terrorist organizations to associate the government with terrorism." Both the charges and the proposed sentences have serious implications for Turkey's already poor press freedom record.
