lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I have been allocated 90 seconds as president of and as a representative of the Transnational Radical Party, which has been fighting for decades to, at last – and I am saying this to President Frattini – state our convictions instead of doing verbal gymnastics around conventions in an undignified manner. In 1994, we only lost by eight votes in the UN, because of the concern of Singapore and other States that these proposals for a moratorium would reduce national sovereignty. To date, 33 States have become abolitionist and have enforced the moratorium. The Italian Presidency has proclaimed and is continuing to proclaim loud and clear its conviction in this battle, taking every single opportunity, every single day in this rubbish heap of pretexts and excuses, every opportunity, to go against its commitments. Mr President-in-Office of the Council, we are fighting a battle so that the convictions that we accept or claim to accept are, at least to a minimal extent, honoured in our country too, if possible, and also in Europe – with or without you – and so that we can stop unworthily conforming to foolish, mistaken conventions. My time has run out but I fear that your time is running out for credibility and decency. I hope that this is not yet the case but you are in danger and putting us in danger of indecency and not being believed."@en1
