"Mr President, I would like to thank the Commission for being receptive to my question. It seems incredible that today, in the year 2000, in a world which is globally interconnected, women are being sentenced to death for adultery. If Maryam did not live in a theocratic regime she would be free, she could enjoy the right to life, but as she lives in Iran, she will be stoned to death. The Spanish Prime Minister – Mr Aznar – is to make an official visit to that country in October. Perhaps he will shake hands with President Khatami. Commissioner, is it not inconsistent for us to form friendships and ties with regimes which violate human rights in this way, to the point of stoning its women to death? This is the thirteenth time under the Khatami regime. Is that not inconsistent? You know as well as I do that there are many ways of exerting political influence. What will the Commission do in this case?"@en1
