lpv:translated text	". The Italian socialist delegation and the other socialist Members, particularly the French socialist Members, abstained from the final vote on the Schmid report. I too abstained from the vote, and I would like to explain why. I have good reason to believe my views are shared by the other Members. I find it absolutely incomprehensible, not to say outrageous, that the European Parliament, particularly the Group of the Party of European Socialists, to which I belong, should have rejected certain amendments – the ones I referred to when I spoke during the debate: Nos 16, 17, 18, 19 and 22 – which seek explicitly to emphasise that large-scale, indiscriminate interceptions such as those performed by Echelon are a blatant violation of the human rights recognised by the European Convention on Human Rights and other international conventions. In rejecting these amendments, with the support of the majority of socialists, Parliament has implicitly made it possible – although it may not be completely aware of this – for the private communications of European citizens henceforth to be listened in to by Echelon and similar systems 24 hours a day, with no respect for the principles of legality and proportionality upheld by the European Convention on Human Rights and our Charter of Fundamental Rights. I call upon the Council and the Commission, who are more aware of the need to respect the principles enshrined in the Treaties, to correct this dangerous drift."@en1
