"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I am one of several Basque Members of this House. I am also fully committed to the defence of all human rights, especially the most basic right of all, namely the right to life. As some honourable Members will be aware, Domingo Durán, an officer in the Spanish national police force died last Friday at the age of 51. Eight years ago he was guarding a Bilbao office processing national identity cards and lost the use of all four limbs as a result of an attack by ETA. Mr Cox, I believe it would be appropriate for you to issue a condemnation of violence of any kind in your capacity as President of the European Parliament. In particular, I call on you to condemn terrorist violence in pursuit of political aims, and to convey the condolences of the House to the family of this victim of terrorism. As an expression of our solidarity with the people of Spain and especially the Basques I would also like to call on all those present in the House today to join in a minute’s silence in defence of freedom, political coexistence and respect for the rule of law."@en1
