". We MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece voted against the motion for a resolution on the 60th session of the UN Commission on Human Rights because, generally speaking, the resolution proclaims the ΕU to be the 'honest' judge of respect for human rights but says nothing about the blatant violations of human rights within the ΕU: persecution of trade unionists, electronic files, monitoring personal life on the pretext of combating terrorism, infringement of the rights to housing and work and equal access to health care, education and social welfare, taking away physical integrity and life in the workplace for greater profit etc. And: the resolution criticises the Commission on Human Rights for becoming highly politicised, obviously implying that the refusal by the majority of its members to satisfy the demands of the ΕU and the USA to condemn states and precisely serving their ideological and political expediencies (Cuba, China, North Korea, Vietnam, Belarus etc.); it avoids firing on the USA, where executions and blatant violations of human rights are a daily occurrence; it proposes a 'fair' trial for Saddam Hussein, while not only does it not propose a trial for Bush, Blair and their accomplices, it also proclaims them as guarantors of justice; human rights are again being 'exploited' to pave the way for the CFSP, in other words military intervention."@en1
