"Together with my Italian colleagues in the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), I decided to abstain in today’s vote regarding relations between the European Union and Brazil on short-stay visa waiver for holders of diplomatic, service or official passports. This is because, in the light of the content of the resolution on the Cesare Battisti case, I would have preferred it if the vote had been postponed ahead of the new decision of the Federal Court in Brazil on the extradition of Cesare Battisti, a criminal.
Given the non-urgent nature of the dossier, postponing it to the next part-session or the one in April certainly would not have been a problem, especially if we think about the pain of the families of the victims of this mass-murderer. These same families have been waiting 31 years for justice to be done and for Cesare Battisti to serve the sentence handed down by Italy’s justice system in our own prisons."@en1
