"We Europeans find the death penalty outrageous because, as you are all aware, it was abolished from our political culture, and what is happening at the moment in Libya is a disgrace. What is even more outrageous is that we need to realise that this penalty is being applied, in very many cases, to foreigners in Libya. Information about the recent execution of 18 people indicates that they included Egyptians, Nigerians and Chadians. Why is the punishment much harsher for these people? The reason for this, unfortunately, is that their basic rights are not respected during trials, by which I mean in terms of having access to translators and also consular assistance, which is an absolute must according to international norms. I would also like to say that we need to discuss this matter next week when, as part of the Maghreb Delegation, we are going to have visitors from Libya. I think that we need to spell out these matters as part of our dialogue with this country."@en1
