lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, speakers have mentioned that Belarus is the only European country that has capital punishment as a form of criminal punishment. Since the Soviet Union ended in 1991, up to 400 people have been executed in this way but, significantly, only 50 or less of these were in the last ten years. That would perhaps indicate a change in attitude, and that is something we would welcome. Obviously, we would like to see capital punishment being eliminated altogether as a form of sentence. Where these two gentlemen are concerned, if they were truly guilty of the crime of bombing and killing 15 people, it would be hard to argue, emotionally at least, that their sentence should be commuted, but all the evidence is that they were forced to confess. Certainly, that is not a way to have justice, so we are definitely right to call for commuting by the President."@en1
