lpv:spoken text	". The EU has as part of its requirements for membership for Member States that they do not exercise or have on their statute books the death penalty. It is only right that we try to promote this around the globe. It is a disgrace from the US to China, from Central Asia to Central Africa. The problem is that we exhibit a degree of hypocrisy when some executions are more acceptable than others. It is just as wrong to execute Saddam Hussein and Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma Bomber, as Ken Sara-Wiwo, the Nigerian human rights activist, or the hundreds of victims of Saddam Hussein’s brutal, totalitarian regime. I can only hope that in future we oppose those barbaric public spectacles in the same way we oppose China’s executions, as now modern technology allows public executions to be replaced by execution broadcast via mobile phone."@en⁴

Det er kun ret og rimeligt, at vi forsøger at fremme dette overalt på kloden. Det er en skændsel fra USA til Kina, fra Centralasien til Centralafrika. Problemet er, at vi udviser en vis grad af hykleri, når nogle henrettelser er mere acceptable end andre. Det er lige så forkert at henrette Saddam Hussein og Timothy McVeigh, bombemanden fra Oklahoma, som Ken Sara-Wiwo, den nigerianske menneskerettighedsaktivist eller de hundreder af ofre for Saddam Husseins brutale, totalitære regime. Jeg kan kun håbe, at vi fremover vil modsætte os disse barbariske, offentlige forestillinger, på samme måde som vi modsætter os Kinas henrettelser, når den moderne teknologi giver mulighed for at erstatte offentlige henrettelser med transmissioner af henrettelser via mobiltelefoner."@da² ". Die EU verlangt unter anderem von künftigen Mitgliedstaaten, dass sie die Todesstrafe nicht vollstrecken oder nicht in ihren Rechtssystemen vorsehen. Es ist nur folgerichtig, wenn wir uns dafür einsetzen, dass dies auf internationaler Ebene gilt. Die Todesstrafe ist eine Schande, von den USA bis China, von Zentralasien bis Zentralafrika. Das Problem besteht darin, dass wir eine gewisse Heuchelei an den Tag legen, wenn einige Hinrichtungen akzeptabler sind als andere. Es ist genau so falsch, Saddam Hussein und den Oklahoma-Bomber Timothy McVeigh hinzurichten wie den nigerianischen Menschenrechtaktivisten Ken Saro-Wiwa oder die Hunderte von Menschen, die dem brutalen, totalitären Regime von Saddam Hussein zum Opfer gefallen sind. Ich kann nur hoffen, dass wir solche barbarischen öffentlichen Spektakel in Zukunft genauso ablehnen wie Hinrichtungen in China, denn durch den technologischen Fortschritt ist es jetzt möglich, dass öffentliche Hinrichtungen durch die Übertragung per Mobiltelefon ersetzt werden."@de⁹ "Η ΕΕ θέτει ως μέρος των απαιτήσεών της προς τα κράτη μέλη της να μην ασκούν ή να μην προβλέπουν στη νομοθεσία τους τη θανατική ποινή. Είναι σωστό να προσπαθήσουμε να προωθήσουμε αυτήν την αντιμετώπιση σε ολόκληρο τον κόσμο. Αποτελεί ντροπή από τις ΗΠΑ μέχρι την Κίνα, από την Κεντρική Ασία μέχρι την Κεντρική Αφρική. Το πρόβλημα είναι ότι επιδεικνύουμε έναν βαθμό υποκρισίας όταν ορισμένες εκτελέσεις είναι περισσότερο αποδεκτές από άλλες. Είναι εξίσου λάθος να εκτελείται ο Σαντάμ Χουσεΐν και ο Τίμοθι Μακβί, ο βομβιστής της Οκλαχόμα, όπως και ο Ken Sara-Wiwo, ο νιγηριανός στρατευμένος υπέρμαχος των ανθρωπίνων δικαιωμάτων, ή τα εκατοντάδες θύματα του βάναυσου, ολοκληρωτικού καθεστώτος του Σαντάμ Χουσεΐν. Ελπίζω μόνο ότι στο μέλλον θα αντιταχθούμε σε αυτά τα βάρβαρα δημόσια θεάματα όπως ακριβώς αντιτασσόμαστε στις εκτελέσεις της Κίνας, καθώς τώρα η σύγχρονη τεχνολογία επιτρέπει την αντικατάσταση των δημόσιων εκτελέσεων με τις εκτελέσεις που μεταδίδονται μέσω κινητού τηλεφώνου."@el¹⁰ ". Entre los requisitos para la adhesión de nuevos Estados miembros a la UE figura el que exige que estos no apliquen la pena capital ni la contemplen en su legislación. Estoy de acuerdo en que tratemos de promover esto en todo el mundo. Es una vergüenza desde los Estados Unidos hasta China, desde Asia Central hasta África Central. El problema es que mostramos cierto grado de hipocresía cuando algunas ejecuciones nos parecen más aceptables que otras. Está igual de mal ejecutar a Sadam Husein y a Timothy McVeigh, el terrorista que puso la bomba de Oklahoma, que a Ken Sara-Wiwo, el activista nigeriano en defensa de los derechos humanos, o a los cientos de víctimas del régimen totalitario y brutal de Sadam Husein. Solo puedo esperar que en el futuro nos opongamos a estos bárbaros espectáculos públicos de la misma forma que nos oponemos a las ejecuciones en China, puesto que ahora la tecnología moderna permite sustituir las ejecuciones públicas por la retransmisión de las mismas a través del teléfono móvil."@es²¹ "The EU has as part of its requirements for membership for Member States that they do not exercise or have on their statute books the death penalty.

EU on sisällyttänyt jäsenvaltioidensa jäsenyysvaatimuksiin, etteivät valtiot sovella kuolemanrangaistusta tai ettei sitä sallita niiden lainsäädännössä. On aivan oikein, että pyrimme edistämään tällaista käytäntöä kaikkialla maailmassa. Kuolemanrangaistus on häpeätahra, joka ulottuu aina Yhdysvalloista Kiinaan ja Keski-Aasiasta Keski-Afrikkaan. Ongelmana on, että osoittaudumme hieman tekopyhiksi, kun pidämme joitakin teloituksia toisia hyväksyttävämpinä. On aivan yhtä väärin teloittaa Saddam Hussein ja Oklahoman pommittaja Timothy McVeigh kuin nigerialainen ihmisoikeusaktivisti Ken Sara-Wiwo tai satoja Saddam Husseinin julman, totalitaarisen hallinnon uhreja. En voi muuta kuin toivoa, että vastustamme vastedes tällaisia barbaarisia julkisia spektaakkeleja samalla tavoin kuin Kiinan teloituksia, koska nykytekniikan avulla julkinen teloitus voidaan korvata välittämällä teloitus matkapuhelinverkon kautta."@fi⁷ ". Parmi les conditions d’adhésion qu’elle impose aux États membres, l’Union européenne exige que ceux-ci n’appliquent pas la peine de mort et ne l’inscrivent pas dans leur législation. Il n’est que juste que nous tentions de promouvoir cela dans le monde entier. Cette pratique est honteuse, des États-Unis à la Chine, de l’Asie centrale à l’Afrique centrale. Le problème est que nous nous montrons hypocrites en considérant que certaines exécutions sont plus acceptables que d’autres. Il est tout aussi inadmissible d’exécuter Saddam Hussein et Timothy McVeigh, auteur de l’attentat d’Oklahoma, que Ken Saro-Wiwa, l’activiste nigérian militant en faveur des droits de l’homme, ou les centaines de victimes du régime brutal et totalitaire de Saddam Hussein. Je ne peux qu’espérer que, à l’avenir, nous nous opposerons à ces spectacles publics barbares de la même manière que nous nous opposons aux exécutions en Chine, car, aujourd’hui, la technologie moderne permet de remplacer les exécutions publiques par des exécutions diffusées sur téléphone portable."@fr⁸ "The EU has as part of its requirements for membership for Member States that they do not exercise or have on their statute books the death penalty.

E’ più che giusto cercare di promuovere questo principio in tutto il mondo. La pena di morte è un’infamia, dagli Stati Uniti alla Cina, dall’Asia centrale all’Africa centrale. Il problema è che mostriamo una certa ipocrisia quando giudichiamo alcune esecuzioni capitali più accettabili di altre. E’ sbagliato tanto giustiziare Saddam Hussein e Timothy McVeigh, il dinamitardo di Oklahoma City, quanto giustiziare Ken Saro-Wiwa, l’attivista nigeriano per i diritti umani, o le centinaia di vittime del regime brutale e totalitario di Saddam Hussein. Posso soltanto sperare che in futuro ci opporremo a questi barbari spettacoli pubblici nello stesso modo in cui ci opponiamo alle esecuzioni in Cina, dal momento che adesso la tecnologia moderna permette di sostituire le esecuzioni pubbliche con esecuzioni trasmesse via telefonino."@it^12,12 "The EU has as part of its requirements for membership for Member States that they do not exercise or have on their statute books the death penalty.

Een van de voorwaarden voor het lidmaatschap van de EU is dat lidstaten de doodstraf noch ten uitvoer leggen noch in hun wetboeken hebben vastgelegd. Het is niet meer dan terecht dat we dit wereldwijd proberen aan te moedigen. De doodstraf is van de VS tot China, en van Centraal-Azië tot Centraal-Afrika een schande. Het probleem is dat we blijk geven van een zekere mate van hypocrisie wanneer bepaalde terechtstellingen aanvaardbaarder zouden zijn dan andere. De executie van Saddam Hoessein is net zo verkeerd als die van Timothy McVeigh, de Oklahoma Bomber, of van Ken Saro-Wiwa, de Nigeriaanse mensenrechtenactivist, of van de honderden slachtoffers van het meedogenloze, totalitaire regime van Saddam Hoessein. Ik kan alleen maar hopen dat we ons in de toekomst zullen blijven verzetten tegen dergelijke barbaarse publieke schouwspelen, net zoals we ons verzetten tegen de terechtstellingen in China, want dankzij de moderne technologie bestaat de mogelijkheid dat uitzending van executies via mobiele telefoon nu de plaats zal innemen van publieke terechtstellingen."@nl³ "The EU has as part of its requirements for membership for Member States that they do not exercise or have on their statute books the death penalty.

É tão errado executar Saddam Hussein e Timothy McVeigh, o bombista de Oklahoma, como Ken Sara-Wiwo, o activista nigeriano dos direitos humanos, ou as centenas de vítimas do regime totalitarista e brutal de Saddam Hussein. Resta-me esperar que no futuro nos oponhamos a estes espectáculos públicos bárbaros da mesma maneira que nos opomos às execuções da China, na medida em que as tecnologias modernas permitem que as execuções públicas sejam substituídas pela transmissão da execução via telemóvel."@pt¹⁷ "The EU has as part of its requirements for membership for Member States that they do not exercise or have on their statute books the death penalty.

Det är rätt och riktigt att vi försöker verka för detta runt om i världen. Det är en skam från Förenta staterna till Kina, från Centralasien till Centralafrika. Problemet är att vi hycklar när vissa avrättningar är mer godtagbara än andra. Det är lika fel att avrätta Saddam Hussein och Timothy McVeigh, bombmannen från Oklahoma, som den nigerianska människorättsaktivisten Ken Sara-Wiwo eller de hundratals offren för Saddam Husseins brutala, totalitära regim. Jag kan bara hoppas att vi i framtiden motsätter oss dessa barbariska offentliga spektakel på samma sätt som vi motsätter oss Kinas avrättningar, eftersom modern teknik nu gör det möjligt att ersätta offentliga avrättningar med avrättningar som sänds via mobiltelefon."@sv²²
