"Mr President, Commissioner, if voices other than ours had not been raised in the last few days, to give the Iranian Government a warning, thirteen Iranians charged with espionage just for being in touch with relatives in other parts of the world would, at this very moment, be facing trial behind closed doors under summary procedure, leaving them no chance of their most basic rights to a defence being guaranteed. You have just heard confirmation, from Mr Sylla, that this planned mock trial is at least going to be adjourned for a few days. That means there is the utmost justification for dealing with Parliament’s second joint resolution on this issue under urgent procedure. It also means there is a chance this resolution – expressing our indignation – might be heard in Iran, where the results of the recent elections have raised the hope of progress there on fundamental human rights. As everyone who has already spoken has said, it is our duty to ensure that those rights are respected."@en1
