lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, a recent report by Open Society Justice Initiative confirms what Irish people have known for quite a long time, that Ireland is one of 54 countries which helped facilitate the use of illegal actions by the CIA by permitting the use of its airspace and airports for fights associated with the so-called ‘extraordinary rendition’. In 2005, the then government stated that inspections of military planes in Shannon were not necessary because it had received assurances from the US Administration that detainees had not been and would not be transported illegally through Irish territory. But it is undeniable that successive Irish Governments have known that rendition flights did travel through Ireland and they knew that this violated international conventions on torture. But for the sake of maintaining good relations, a special relationship with the US, they did nothing except cover up kidnapping and torture. That is a microcosm for what has happened across Europe. The secret detention centres have to be closed. The rendition flights have to be ended. All those [detained] have to be either released, or charged and given a fair trial."@en1
