In Brussels, protesters with Amnesty International gathered outside a meeting of European leaders to demonstrate against what they called European complicity in CIA backed torture. A recent Council of Europe report concluded that 14 European countries have been involved in or complicit in secret CIA operations since the Sept. 11th attacks.

• Amnesty International’s Dick Oosting: “We have indicated seven European countries that have been involved in this, four of them are members of European Union. That is Italy, it’s Germany, it’s United Kingdom and it’s Sweden. Turkey, Macedonia, Bosnia have also been implicated. So these governments must do a proper investigation. They have refused to do that so far. These governements must take measures so that foreign intelligence agencies like the CIA can no longer operate with impunity on their territory.”
