lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I too would like to congratulate and praise the rapporteur, Mr Fava, and I would like once again to express our full support for his report's fundamental approach. In the hearings that we have held over recent months it has become clear that we cannot carry on talking about alleged practices, but rather we must discuss and analyse specific facts and call the relevant people to account, as other Members have also pointed out. As the report stresses, it seems extraordinary to us that the governments should not have known what was happening, and I would like once again to express my surprise at certain governments’ – including mine – repeated denials of facts that CIA officials themselves have demonstrated and acknowledged. The detention today in Italy is simply the tip of the iceberg, and we hope that everything else will come to light soon. I would insist that it is not a question of knowing whether these practices have occurred, but of who in Europe knew about them, and often collaborated in them, and also who, since they must have known about them, evaded their responsibilities. The report’s conclusion is clear: the work we are doing is necessary and must continue. It is true that we are neither investigators nor prosecutors; we have neither the power nor the means to carry out this action or these investigations, but we can ask the relevant question and raise important issues. In order to be able to do this work, the investigation must continue and I would therefore say once again that we must support this report."@en1
