New York, January 23, 2007) – The European Parliament report adopted today on the role of EU states in CIA renditions tells only half the story when it comes to European complicity in torture, Human Rights Watch said in a new briefing paper...
"Diplomatic assurances simply do not protect against torture,” said (Holly Cartner, Europe and Central Asia director of Human Rights Watch). “European governments have used these empty promises as a fig leaf to justify sending people to places where they risk being tortured.”
