lpv:translated text	"I should like to draw your and Parliament’s attention to a man-made disaster with which we shall be confronted in the course of the next few days. Last week, I and two of my colleagues, Feleknas Uca and Konstantinos Alyssandrakis, were on a visit to Istanbul where we met former prisoners, their families and their lawyers, together with human rights campaigners in Turkey. A large number of prisoners in Turkish jails are on hunger strike, with some of them prepared to die because of the Turkish Government’s policy towards prisoners. I should like to call upon you, Madam President, to make contact with the Turkish authorities and press for a new dialogue to be embarked upon between the Turkish Government, on the one hand, and prisoners’ organisations and the human rights organisations, on the other. Otherwise, we shall see a succession of fatalities next week, for the hunger strike has been going on for months."@en1
