"Mr President, the illegal interrogation and imprisonment of foreign citizens in EU countries within the framework of a US intelligence service programme is a disturbing element in Europe-US relations.
The findings of independent journalists and investigators from Poland and Lithuania have confirmed the secret stopovers of US aircraft at military airfields in north-eastern Poland, and the subsequent escorting of the persons under transport from these aircraft to secret intelligence service facilities in Lithuania.
It is surely clear to all of us that such activities of the CIA in Poland, Lithuania or Romania could not have taken place without the knowledge and consent of official structures in these countries. I therefore firmly believe that if the top state officials collaborating in these illegal activities continue to be protected in their roles by the political leaders of these countries, it will be difficult to make any progress in investigating the illegal activities of the CIA in Europe.
However, there is only one conclusion for our citizens from this: the security services of many EU states are no different from those of Franco or Pinochet in their working methods."@en1
