"Colleagues, as you will be aware, on Saturday 15 November 2003, 15 people died and 28 were injured after the collapse of a gangway on the new cruise ship
in the French shipyard of Saint-Nazaire. On behalf of the European Parliament and in my own name, I express my most profound sympathy and solidarity with the families of the victims of this terrible and tragic accident.
It is also my sad duty today to express on behalf of this House our condemnation and grief at the two car bomb attacks on synagogues in Istanbul also on Saturday, which killed at least 23 innocent civilians and wounded hundreds more. We send our deepest sympathy and sincere condolences to the families of the victims and to the Turkish Government. We also commend the swift and vigorous action of the Turkish Government in seeking to apprehend those behind an indiscriminate, senseless and criminal anti-Semitic attack, one that struck at the place of traditional peaceful coexistence between different religions. Intolerance and anti-Semitism in all their manifestations are abhorrent to the values that we represent.
I should also like to inform the House that the President would like, at the opening of tomorrow's sitting, to pay a personal tribute to the Italians who died in Iraq.
For the moment, I ask you to observe one minute's silence for the victims of the accident and the attack I have just mentioned."@en1
