"The answer to the honourable Member’s question is, in principle, yes.
Allow me to quote from the speech made by the presidency on 29 March at the UN Commission for Human Rights. The European Union took this opportunity to welcome the fact that Saudi Arabia had ratified the convention relating to discrimination against women but added that ‘the EU continues to be deeply concerned about reports of torture and other inhuman treatments and punishment, the increasing use of the death penalty and amputations, discriminatory laws and prohibitions of, or restrictions on, fundamental freedoms including freedom of expression, assembly, association and religion’. In this way, the European Union made its views on the situation in Saudi Arabia in this area crystal clear."@en1
