LETTER-APPEAL TO EUROPEAN INSTITUTIONS AND TO THE GOVERNMENTS OF THE MEMBER STATES

ON THE FULL RESPECT OF FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT OF PERSONS IN THE EUROPEAN UNION AND TO ELIMINATE ALL DISCRIMINATIONS AGAINST SAME SEX COUPLES

One of the freedoms on which the EU is based is the freedom of movement, working, residence and establishment anywhere on the territory of the EU, without any discrimination, with the same rights and duties of other citizens: we all are citizens of a certain State, but also European citizens. These rights are enshrined in the Treaties of the Union, and now also in the Charter of Fundamental Rights.

The EU is now examining an important proposal for a directive concerning "the right of citizens of the Union and their family members to move and reside freely within the territory of the Member States (1)". This directive is aimed at fully implementing the Treaties and the provisions concerning the European citizenship, guaranteeing new rights and eliminating unjustified discriminations and obstacles to free movement of persons.

Until now same-sex couples, married or living in a durable relationship, that have seen their relationship recognised by a Member State that provides for such an opportunity, do not enjoy the same rights and duties when they move to another State of the EU.

For this reason we appeal to you, to ask you to eliminate such a discrimination and guarantee the full, free movement of everybody, without unjustified discriminations, on the territory of the European Union.

Sincerely,
