".
Let me say, finally, that the Council naturally shares Mrs Maes’ concern over the situation in Turkish prisons. If I remember correctly, the hunger strikes in Turkish prisons have so far cost 23 lives. This development, which the Council is monitoring carefully, is deeply disturbing. The trial of the Fazilet Party is also under way. As a judgement has not yet been made, it is too early to express an opinion on any possible consequences. However, generally speaking it can be said that banning political parties is hardly a solution to Turkey’s political and economic problems.
On this occasion, as on previous occasions, I am grateful to be able to draw attention to this incredibly important issue, along with Mrs Maes, i.e. the way human rights are developing in Turkey. We should all monitor this vital issue carefully in the future."@en1
