"I voted in favour of this resolution because the EU must pursue a coherent and consistent policy to support and promote human rights throughout the world. I believe that the recommendations on the transportation and illegal detention of prisoners need to be implemented as a matter of urgency. The Member States should address more effectively their complicity in the worldwide violation of human rights in the context of the US rendition and secret detention programme, and in accompanying domestic human rights’ violations. Only through joint efforts can we stop secret detention disguised as counter terrorism. The EU Member States cannot continue to be used for the secret transportation and illegal detention of prisoners. To achieve a strong and transparent political Union and an effectively and coherently functioning framework for the protection of human rights, the EU must complete the negotiation process and accede to the European Convention on Human Rights. I welcome the new European Neighbourhood Policy. Greater support must be given to partners engaged in building deep and sustainable democracy and supporting inclusive economic development. There should also be continued support for democratic movements, NGOs and civil rights advocates in the Eastern Neighbourhood."@en1
