lpv:translated text	"Mr President, one minute is far too short to recite the litany of human rights violations in Iran. As we all know, these include arrests and arbitrary detention, unfair trials, torture and degrading treatment, discrimination against various minorities and the death penalty. I am going to speak about the last item. As we are aware, the global trend is towards abolishing the death penalty. Several UN resolutions call for a global moratorium to be introduced. In spite of these actions, Iran remains the country with the highest proportion of death penalty sentences per capita. In most cases, these executions actually take place in secret. Various reports mention that more than 300 secret executions were carried out last year. Sometimes minors are victims of these executions. I would actually like to add my voice to that of my colleague who demanded the immediate release of Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, accused of apostasy because he converted to Christianity at the age of 19. In conclusion, I believe that the dialogue on human rights between the European Union and Iran must be resumed to be able to raise the issue of the death penalty, not to mention the other human rights violations."@en1
