which was referred to the Committee on Foreign AffairsRESOLUTIONCondemning the atrocities and crimes against humanity being perpetrated against religious and ethnic minority women in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region by the Government of the People’s Republic of China.Whereas repression of ethnic Muslim minorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region has been ongoing, and was formalized with the Strike Hard Campaign against Violent Terrorism that began in 2014;Whereas the mass internment of Uyghur and other Muslim ethnic minorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region has been ongoing since April 2017;Whereas the People’s Republic of China has conducted a targeted and systemic population-control campaign against ethnic and religious minorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region by imposing and implementing coercive population-control practices including selectively enforcing birth quotas, targeting minority women who are in noncompliance with birth quotas, and subjecting women to coercive measures such as forced birth control, forced sterilization, and forced abortion;Whereas the most frequently cited internment reason for one majority-Uyghur county is a violation of birth control regulations;Whereas widespread reports indicate that detained Uyghurs, ethnic Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and other ethnic and religious minority women are subjected to sexual violence and prevented from reproducing;Whereas, in August 2020, a first-hand account by a former teacher at a women’s internment camp in Urumqi reported human rights abuses and atrocities against many of the 10,000 interned women, including inhumane and unsanitary conditions, forced injections of unknown substances, forced contraception, daily rape and sexual abuse by camp guards, and torture;Whereas the People’s Republic of China allocated $37 million for birth control surgeries in 2019 and 2020 and planned to force more than 80 percent of women in southern areas of Xinjiang to adopt birth control measures with long-term effectiveness;Whereas sterilization rates in Xinjiang grew seven-fold from 2016 to 2018 to more than 60,000 procedures;Whereas birthrates in the majority-Uyghur regions of Hotan and Kashgar decreased by more than 60 percent from 2015 to 2018, and in 2019 the birthrate of the Uyghur population plummeted by 24 percent, compared to a 4.2 percent decline nationwide;Whereas the People’s Republic of China set a near-zero birthrate target of 1.05 per 1,000 people for one majority-Uyghur and Kazakh region for 2020, compared to 19.66 per 1,000 in 2018;Whereas, in 2018, 80 percent of intrauterine device (IUD) insertions in China were performed in Xinjiang, which only makes up 1.8 percent of the nation’s population, up from only 2.5 percent in 2014;Whereas Chinese IUDs are designed without strings so that they can only be removed through surgical procedures by state-approved medical practitioners, and unauthorized removals are punished with prison sentences and fines;Whereas the People’s Republic of China’s policies incentivize interethnic marriages between ethnic minorities and Han that effectively assimilate minorities into the Han culture;Whereas the Pair Up and Become Family program sends male Han Chinese officials to live in and surveil Uyghur and other Muslim ethnic minorities’ homes, sometimes forcing Uyghur women to sleep alongside the Han officials sent to observe them;Whereas Xinjiang policies disrupt every facet of ethnic minority women’s lives beginning with sending young girls to Chinese boarding school, then pressuring marriage to Han Chinese men, pregnancy checks, and forced birth control or sterilization as a means of population control;Whereas the Programme of Action adopted at the International Conference on Population and Development in 1994 affirmed the right of individuals to make decisions concerning reproduction free of all forms of discrimination, violence, or coercion, and reproductive coercion includes, but is not limited to, use of incentives or disincentives to lower or raise fertility, withholding of information on reproductive health options, coerced or forced abortion, involuntary sterilization or use of contraception, or forced pregnancy; Whereas, on October 6, 2020, 39 countries delivered a cross-regional joint statement to the United States Mission to the United Nations on the human rights abuses on Uyghurs and other minorities for forced birth control including sterilization;Whereas, on January 19, 2021, the Department of State determined that the People’s Republic of China committed crimes against humanity and genocide against Uyghurs and other ethnic and religious minority groups in Xinjiang, citing forced sterilizations, forced abortions, coerced marriages, and separation of Uyghur children from their families;Whereas the Department of State’s 2020 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices affirmed the genocide determination and noted coercive population control measures inflicted on ethnic and religious minority women in China, including forced injections with drugs that cause temporary or permanent end to their menstrual cycles and fertility; andWhereas the United States ratified the United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide in 1988, recognizing that imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group with intent to destroy a group in whole or part is an act that constitutes genocide: Now, therefore, be itThat the House of Representatives—(1)condemns the atrocities against religious and ethnic minority women in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region by the Government of the People’s Republic of China;(2)calls on the People’s Republic of China—(A)to uphold its obligations as a signatory to the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, and cease violations of the Conventions’ acts;(B)to halt all forms of forced or coercive population-control practices and end all coercive policies; and(C)to release all individuals detained in internment camps and forced-labor programs, including women interned for violations of birth control regulations; (3)condemns performing unwanted, unnecessary medical procedures on individuals without their full, informed consent and recognizes that everyone has a right to control their own reproductive choices and make informed choices about their bodies; and(4)urges the President of the United States—(A)to take all available actions to prevent atrocities against religious and ethnic minority women in the People’s Republic of China;(B)to encourage and engage in a United Nations-led full investigation of state-sponsored atrocities against women in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, including measures intended to prevent births within specific ethnic and religious groups;(C)to use interagency partnerships and existing authorities, including the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act, to impose targeted sanctions against individuals and entities responsible for coercive population-control measures and other human rights abuses against women in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region;(D)to address atrocities against religious and ethnic minority women in the People’s Republic of China through bilateral relations and engagement with multilateral institutions and conventions to which both the United States and the People’s Republic of China are parties; (E)to use all existing authorities to provide protection to ethnic and religious minority women who escape the People’s Republic of China, including the authority to include Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and certain others who are or were nationals and residents of the People’s Republic of China as Priority 2 refugees of special humanitarian concern;

John Stanley Beard ( - ) était un forestier et écologiste d'origine britannique qui résidait en Australie.
 Biographie
 Il étudie à l'Université d'Oxford, où il passe sa thèse de doctorat sur la sylviculture tropicale.
 Alors qu'il travaillait avec le Service des forêts de Trinité-et-Tobago dans les années 1940, John Beard développa un système de classification des forêts pour l'Amérique tropicale et décrivit les forêts de Trinité, Tobago et des Petites Antilles. Ces descriptions restent des références sur le sujet.
 Après avoir quitté Trinité, Beard s'installa en Afrique du Sud puis en Australie, où il réalisa une vaste série de cartes botaniques couvrant une grande partie du pays.
 Ses études approfondies de l'Australie occidentale ont offert des clés de compréhension des aires biogéographiques de cet état ainsi que de la distribution de la flore régionale. Beard fut le principal rédacteur des notes explicatives du projet de cartographie associé à l'enquête sur la végétation de l'Australie occidentale, qui impliqua de parcourir quelque . Il fut également directeur de la fondation du Kings Park and Botanic Garden, un parc botanique situé à Perth, entre 1961 et 1970. Il fut ensuite directeur des Jardins botaniques royaux de Sydney (1970–72) avant de se retirer à Perth. Au cours de son mandat de directeur, de nombreuses plantes endémiques d'Australie occidentale furent mises en culture pour la première fois. Beard édita le Catalogue descriptif des plantes d'Australie occidentale (1965), qui fut publié par la Society for Growing Australian Plants (une association d'horticulture promouvant la culture des plantes australiennes), afin de favoriser la compréhension des exigences horticoles des plantes indigènes d'Australie occidentale.
 Pendant sa retraite, il écrivit des articles appréciés portant sur ses études botaniques dans La vie des plantes d'Australie occidentale (Plant Life of Western Australia), paru en 1990. Il fit de même, pour ses études taxinomiques et horticoles de Protea spp., dans Proteas of Tropical Africa (1992).
 John Beard reçut la médaille de l'Ordre d'Australie en 2003. Il mourut en février 2011, à l'âge de 95 ans.

 Panaikinti 2008 m. spalio 15 d. Pirmosios instancijos teismo sprendimą byloje T-405/05, kiek jis susijęs su neįrodytu prekių ženklo CTM 76059 skiriamojo požymio įgijimu, ir perduoti bylą nagrinėti iš naujo.
 —
 Bet kuriuo atveju Teisingumo Teismo prašoma nurodyti VRDT ir prekių ženklo CTM savininkei padengti savo pačių ir apeliantės bylinėjimosi išlaidas, patirtas VRDT apeliacinėje taryboje, Pirmosios instancijos teisme ir Teisingumo Teisme.
 Apeliacinio skundo pagrindai ir pagrindiniai argumentai
 Pateiktu apeliaciniu skundu ginčijamas Pirmosios instancijos teismo sprendimas, kuriuo buvo atmestas apeliantės ieškinys dėl 2005 m. liepos 22 d. Vidaus rinkos derinimo tarnybos (toliau — VRDT) ketvirtosios apeliacinės tarybos sprendimo dėl Bendrijos prekių ženklo „MANPOWER“ registracijos pripažinimo negaliojančia panaikinimo. Pirmosios instancijos teismas nusprendė, kad Bendrijos prekių ženklas „MANPOWER“ juo žymimų prekių ir paslaugų atžvilgiu yra aprašomasis tik Jungtinėje Karalystėje, Airijoje, Vokietijoje ir Austrijoje bei patvirtino Apeliacinės tarybos sprendimą, kad nagrinėjamas prekių ženklas valstybėse narėse, kuriose jis pripažintas aprašomuoju, įgijo skiriamąjį požymį dėl naudojimo.
 Apeliaciniam skundui pagrįsti nurodomi 1993 m. gruodžio 20 d. Tarybos reglamento (EB) Nr. 40/94 Dėl Bendrijos prekių ženklo 51 straipsnio 1 dalies a punkto ir 2 dalies kartu su 7 straipsnio 1 dalies c punktu ir 3 dalimi pažeidimai.
 Apeliantės teigimu, priešingai nei nusprendė Pirmosios instancijos teismas, žymuo „MANPOWER“ yra aprašomasis taip pat Nyderlanduose, Švedijoje, Danijoje ir Suomijoje, kaip teisingai nusprendė VRDT apeliacinė taryba, o be to, visose iki 2004 m. gegužės 1 d. Bendrijos narėmis buvusiose valstybėse. Jei Pirmosios instancijos teismas būtų įvertinęs aplinkybę, kad remiantis Europos Komisijos statistiniais duomenimis 47 % nagrinėjamų asmenų Bendrijoje kalba angliškai, jis būtų turėjęs padaryti išvadą, kad žodinis prekių ženklas „MANPOWER“ yra aprašomasis ne tik Vokietijoje ir Austrijoje, bet ir kitose ES valstybėse, konkrečiai kalbant Nyderlanduose, Švedijoje, Suomijoje ir Danijoje. Pirmosios instancijos teismas taip pat neįvertino fakto, kad iki 2004 m. gegužės 1 d. Bendrijos narėmis buvusių valstybių narių atitinkama gyventojų dalis dėl kiekvienoje šių valstybių privalomo mokyklinio išsilavinimo turi pakankamas anglų kalbos žinias, kad suprastų elementarių žodžių, kaip antai „MAN“ ir „POWER“, prasmę ir todėl suvoktų žodį „MANPOWER“ kaip aprašomąjį prekių ženklo savininkės prekes ir paslaugas. Tačiau Pirmosios instancijos teismas ne tik visai nemotyvavo, kodėl ne Jungtinės Karalystės ir Airijos gyventojų negalima pripažinti turinčiais net elementarias anglų kalbos žinias, bet nukrypo nuo savo paties ankstesnės praktikos, pagal kurią taip pat ne Jungtinės Karalystės ir Airijos gyventojams pripažįstamos tam tikros elementarios anglų kalbos žinios, būtinos prekių ženklo suvokimui.
 Kiek tai susiję su dėl naudojimo įgytu skiriamuoju požymiu, Pirmosios instancijos teismas padarė teisės klaidą traktavęs tikslinę visuomenę plačiau nei tai darė Apeliacinė taryba savo sprendime, kartu iš naujo neįvertinęs įgyto skiriamojo požymio įrodymo. Net jei būtų pritarta Pirmosios instancijos teismo teiginiui, kad žinomumo įrodymą reikia pateikti tik dėl Jungtinės Karalystės, Airijos, Vokietijos ir Austrijos, jis turėjo, atsižvelgdamas į išplėstą atitinkamos visuomenės sampratą, panaikinti šią Apeliacinės tarybos sprendimo dalį ir grąžinti bylą Apeliacinei tarybai. Pirmosios instancijos teismas taip pat klaidingai patvirtino Apeliacinės tarybos nuomonę dėl nagrinėjamo prekių ženklo tariamo žinomumo „perkėlimo“ iš Jungtinės Karalystės į Airiją, nors negalima preziumuoti prekių ženklo žinomumo „perkėlimo“ nei iš vienos valstybės narės į kitą, nei iš vienos prekės ar paslaugos kitai prekei ar paslaugai.

 Europos Bendrijų Komisijos 2005 m. rugsėjo 19 d. pareikštas ieškinys Suomijos Respublikai
 (Byla C-343/05)
 (2005/C 281/20)
 Proceso kalba: suomių
 2005 m. rugsėjo 19 d. Europos Bendrijų Teisingumo Teisme buvo pareikštas Europos Bendrijų Komisijos, atstovaujamos L. Pignataro Nolin ir M. Huttunen, nurodžiusių adresą dokumentams įteikti Liuksemburge, ieškinys Suomijos Respublikai.
 Ieškovė Teisingumo Teismo prašo:
 1)
 pripažinti, kad Suomijos Respublika neįvykdė savo įsipareigojimų pagal Sutartį ir Direktyvą 2001/37/EB (1),
 kadangi ji neužtikrino, jog autonominė Åland provincija įgyvendintų Direktyvos 89/622/EEB 8a straipsnį, kuris buvo įtrauktas Direktyva 92/41/EEB, o dabartiniu metu yra Direktyvos 2001/37/EB 8 straipsnyje,
 ir
 kadangi ji neužtikrino minėtose Bendrijos nuostatose nustatyto draudimo prekiauti kramtomuoju tabaku Suomijoje registruotuose laivuose laikymosi, ir
 2)
 priteisti iš Suomijos Respublikos bylinėjimosi išlaidas.
 Ieškinio pagrindai ir pagrindiniai argumentai
 Direktyvos 2001/37/EB II priede nurodyta Direktyva 92/41/EEB ir jos perkėlimo į nacionalinę teisę terminas, t. y. 1992 m. liepos 1 d. Kiek tai susiję su Suomijos Respublika, atsižvelgiant į jos įstojimą į Europos Sąjungą, direktyvos perkėlimo į nacionalinę teisę terminas buvo 1995 m. sausio 1 d., nors reikia pripažinti, kad pagal Europos ekonominės erdvės susitarimą ji jau nuo 1994 m. sausio 1 d. turėjo pareigą laikytis minėtos direktyvos.
