lpv:translated text	"Mr President, it is good that the European Parliament should be concerned about the situation of the political prisoners in Guantánamo. It would be even better if it were to be concerned about the situation of prisoners of conscience in European countries and, in particular, about that of the great historian David Irving, who is being illegally held in Austria. That being said, the situation of the Guantánamo Islamists presents a genuine problem. Either they are prisoners of war, in which case they must be treated as such, or they are to be viewed in terms of common law as criminals and terrorists, in which case they must each have the right to a trial, with counsel for the defence, and to be judged under the rules of common law. In any case, we cannot approve of artificially maintaining what is to all intents and purposes an area in which the law does not apply in a country – Cuba – that is a relic of the colonial era and that, moreover, we rightly criticise for its human rights violations. The United States of America is setting an odious example in what could be a just cause: that of the fight against terrorism. By doing so, they are unfortunately destroying the very values that they claim to be reinforcing through their action."@en1
