".
As we have said before, we welcome the initiative of tabling a motion for a resolution to the United Nations General Assembly calling for the adoption of a universal moratorium on the death penalty, which, according to reports, has the support of 88 countries.
The abolition of the death penalty is something to which millions of men and women throughout the world aspire. Indeed, an increasing number of countries have removed it from their national law or have established a moratorium on its use.
We feel that this step is of benefit to civilisation and that ideally it should be extended to other countries. This initiative could be a positive step in that direction."@en1
