"Madam President, I rise to speak on the same matter. We have just learnt that the brother of Taoufik Ben Brik has been sentenced to three months in prison. Everyone here realises that this decision makes the situation critical as the Tunisian journalist had announced his intention to continue his hunger strike until he died if his brother were imprisoned. I have just read the piteous appeal that Taoufik’s young brother has made to the Tunisian journalist to urge him nevertheless to end his hunger strike. I therefore feel that the immediate future could be decisive in terms of reminding the Tunisian authorities of their responsibilities. That is why I join my friend, Mr Barón Crespo, in urging you, as I did in a letter yesterday – and the situation has become even more urgent given recent events – to use your influence and your authority to obtain a fair and speedy solution to this tragic case of the violation of human rights and freedom of the press."@en1
