"Madam President, the sentence passed by the Iranian regime against Sakineh Mohammadi-Ashtiani is one of the multiple human rights violations that must be condemned by Parliament.
As her son has announced, she could be executed after Ramadan, which is coming to an end. We do not therefore have much time and our reaction must be strong and emphatic enough to cause the Iranian authorities to respond by not carrying out the sentence.
This week, we shall hold a demonstration outside Parliament calling for her release. We ask all Members to support us in this attempt to prevent a barbaric act from being committed in the 21st century. That is our duty as Members, as citizens and, above all, as human beings. I ask Baroness Ashton, the Council and the Commissioner for Human Rights to be more forceful in condemning the violation of human rights and in demanding that international agreements and conventions be complied with, and to adopt every possible political measure to increase the pressure and ensure that Iran respects human rights."@en1
