European Parliament’s Follow-up to the CIA Detention Sites and Torture in Europe

Despite an official closure by the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) of an inquiry into the CIA-run program of extraordinary rendition and the use of torture in Europe, the problem continues. On June 8, 2016, the European Parliament adopted its resolution as a follow-up to the European Parliament resolution of February 11, 2015 on the U.S. Senate report on the use of torture by the CIA.
