lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Belarus is the last country in Europe to continue to apply and implement the death penalty, despite the fact that 250 000 people in the country have signed a petition calling for its abolition. Dmitry Konovalov and Vladislav Kovalev have both been sentenced to death for their part in the tragic bomb attack on the Minsk underground on 11 April. However strongly we may condemn the attack, the fact remains that the death penalty is not an appropriate response to murder and criminality. At least Europe and the Western world – in which I would also include the United States – should differentiate themselves from Asian and African traditions. State-sponsored killing is inhumane and is no way to administer justice. I would like to add my voice to that of the Committee of Ministers in calling on the authorities in Belarus to abolish the death penalty."@en1
