EU to seek clarification from US about CIA camps
European Union member states have agreed to submit a joint letter to the US asking for information about possible interrogation camps being run by the CIA on European soil. A report by the Washington Post alleges that the CIA operates camps in eastern Europe that are used to interrogate terrorism suspects.
“Dutch foreign minister Bernard Bot told journalists on Monday (21 November) that the UK presidency will draw up the letter to the US administration on behalf of EU states. A UK presidency spokesman said the letter will be sent out by UK foreign minister Jack Straw “in the coming days”. The EU wants Washington to clarify media and NGO reports that its intelligence branch, the CIA, has detained top Al Qaeda suspects somewhere in eastern Europe.”
