lpv:spoken text	". It is absolutely vital that the European Parliament supports the proposed establishment of a Committee of Inquiry to investigate prisoner abuses in alleged CIA-operated prisons, and secret flights over EU. Europe must stand up to the Bush administration which seems to see us as 'client states' who will rubber-stamp their every excess. It is ridiculous that the US Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, seems to expect us to tolerate their excesses on the premise that their actions may save European lives. I expect it is also the case that European security strategies will save American lives - but neither they nor we should do so using torture. I fully support my Socialist Group's demand that this whole matter be investigated by a European Parliament Committee of Inquiry. That Committee must also be mandated to investigate the whole issue of protection of human rights and democratic transparency in the context of the fight against terrorism. I hope that all MEPs endorse the demand now being made by Socialist MEPs and agree to the Committee of Inquiry being established immediately."@en1
