"Mr President, I am speaking in order to express my support for Mr Fava’s report, and I hope that he will receive the backing tomorrow to continue his investigation. The kidnappings of people and the so-called ‘CIA flights’ are horrendous and are something that Europe and this Parliament cannot tolerate. Thanks to the determination and rigour of the US press we know that at least 480 people are in the sinister prison at Guantánamo, with no legal guarantees. This is morally and legally monstrous. Some of those prisoners have passed through Europe under illegal detention; other kidnapped people have been released and have spoken to us here. There is no question that abhorrent activities are habitually taking place. This generation cannot and must not tolerate this situation, as some of our predecessors did by not facing up to the existence of death camps. Crimes against human rights cannot go unpunished, and must never be forgotten, as happened in the case of other flights by former dictatorships in Argentina and Chile. Certain governments, the Spanish and German Governments, for example, have offered to cooperate with the committee chaired by Mr Coelho, and that is something we should be grateful for."@en1
