Last month, the European Parliament adopted a resolution on the fight against diabetes. It is a victory for a small group of MEPs, including myself, who have been striving to put this item on the agenda for the past two and a half years.
The victory was even sweeter given that the resolution was supported by an overwhelming majority of MEPs across the political spectrum.
It was an important step for more than 32 million EU citizens who suffer from diabetes and another 32 million citizens who are at great risk of contracting it in the course of their lives.
