two projects funded by the Directorate General Justice, Freedom and Security, called
Vnet I and Vnet II during the years 2006 and 2007 respectively. With these two projects
began the union of associations of victims of terrorism in Europe, through various
activities and with clear objectives, which responded primarily to defending the rights
of victims and the provision of a context where all can express their wishes and
demands.
All activities outlined in this report are framed by both NAVT in pursuance of the
objectives outlined at the beginning of creation.
The main objective of NAVT, stimulate transactional cooperation of associations of
victims of terrorism and improving the representation of the interests of victims of
terrorism at a European level. This is being done through the establishment and
functioning of a stable, focused and effective network of European associations of
victims of terrorism or other non-governmental organizations focused on assistance to
victims of terrorism.
The specific objectives NAVT therefore are:
-
The creation of a network of associations of victims of terrorism and
other organizations focused on assisting victims of terrorism.
-
To contribute to increase the representation of victims of terrorism in the
European Union and increasing the solidarity of European citizenship
with all them.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
-
To evaluate the current support and protection offered to victims of
terrorism in the European Union.
-
To collect best practices and to identify errors or failures in the aid or
protection offered to victims of terrorism.
-
To propose activities and to disseminate good practice and eliminate
errors.
-
To support the attainment of the objectives of the Union to provide aid
and protection to victims of terrorism
To accomplish these goals were set within a range of activities NAVT. Specifically in
fulfilling these objectives appointed in general, and in compliance with the second goal
in particular, have developed the activities referred to below, so that might be a channel
through which victims may sue and express their needs, feelings, emotions, life
experiences and both society, and the European institutions, as well as increase the
solidarity of European citizenship with all of them. For all that has taken place in
Madrid, on days 10, 11 and March 12, 2009, meeting on the subject of this report: "The
Voice of the victims: victims support for networking." This meeting was held during the
days above, as the European Parliament set March 11 as the Day in Memory of Victims

2. EVENTS
A. VIRTUAL TRIBUTE
On March 11 is not just a date that does not go unnoticed in the calendar of all
Spaniards. Shortly after the brutal bombing of trains in Madrid, the European Union, a
proposal by the Portuguese MEP José Ribeiro e Castro, institutionalised memory of all
victims of terrorism who have suffered the injustice of terrorism throughout the
continent on 11 March every year. So many events and tributes that have taken place
over the past days, in memory of victims of terrorism in different cities, are a nice
gesture of support and solidarity with the victims began to take shape very quickly and
soon spread after March 11, 2004. But all these acts and tributes have been one in which
all Europeans have been able to attend and give our love and support from every corner
of Europe. One more year, this meeting point that has no physical boundaries, through
new technologies, has been organized by European Network of Victims of Terrorism
and again, had the close cooperation of all associations of victims of terrorism to
European up.
We speak of virtual tribute organized by the European Network in memory of victims
of terrorism. So, like all years, all European citizens and also those who do not live on
our continent have converged in a single act that does not mean hours or borders. In the
event this year all had the opportunity to write our name and that of those who are no
longer with us in a memorial wall.

Mr Jaques Barrot. European Commission Vice President
”Our action in the fight against terrorism is based on the Absolute Primacy of the rule of
law. This means that we fight terrorism by the law and within the law. Fighting
terrorism is about preserving our most fundamental human rights and Cherished and
this means that we must uphold these human rights with every step we take”
”There can never be adequate compensation for the victims or for the families of the
victims of terrorism. However, we can stand by them as we do today, all expressing our
sympathy and our continuing efforts to try to prevent such attacks in the future.”
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Ángeles Domínguez. President. Association of Victims Support M11. SPAIN
“I would like, to seize the opportunity provided by the European Network of Victims of
Terrorism and public, once more, our feelings of gratitude to all those persons.”
”Social support, which has never failed us, has a therapeutic value to the victims of
unimaginable terror.
Since the association that I chair since its inception, we have dedicated ourselves to the
care and support to victims of the M11.”
”All of this work since the first day, has given us the knowledge and tools necessary to
work by and for the victims of the attack, short, medium and long term in various areas
of work of the Association.”
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Mr Michael Gallagher Chairman of Omagh Self Help and Suppport group. NORTHERN IRELAND
”I have attended many international conferences since the group has been set up. My
message to victims of terrorism is not to give up hope we must continue to support each
other it is not an easy journey, but it is important to build links with others who have
suffered from terrorism, both nationally and internationally we have a great deal to
share each other with those, who have suffered should not be forgotten that is why we
are here today. “
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Cristina Cuesta. Foundation director Miguel Angel Blanco. SPAIN
”Any human being minimally sensitive to the pain of others, describes the M11 as a
crime against humanity. Many stories, how many dreams, how many projects have been
thwarted. The murderers removed lives with the right to live and develop, joys, sorrows,
problems and hopes that we are as people. They disrupted the essence of being human:
our fragility and our compassion. We are left flabbergasted by his thirst for hatred, not
knowing what to think, feel, an infinity vacuum gripped our beliefs, we find suffering
and evil with a capital "for which were not prepared or protected. That day I felt deep in
the inclement total of all terrorist acts.”
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11

Representing the "Mouvement Pour la Paix et contre le terrorisme" (Movement for
Peace and Against Terrorism), a human rights association, focusing on the universal
condemnation of terrorism and solidarity with their victims and being a member of the
international alliance against terrorism I have to transmit a double message:
-
Mobilize against terrorism doesn’t concern only to Europe
-
Mobilize against terrorism doesn’t concern only the victims
We welcome the existence of the European Network of Victims of Terrorism, and we
congratulate its creators, Maria Lozano and his partners in all countries, especially our
friends from Italy, Spain, Northern Ireland and France.

This allows to Europeans victims to stay united and that their voice is heard more
strongly ...>>
D. Juan Antonio Casquero. President of Association of Victims of Terrorism. SPAIN
”While we, democratic societies, we endeavour to not only form a bloc against terror,
and our judicial systems are dedicated hard to put barriers between them, terrorism as a
phenomenon has been understood long ago that there is strength and its disdain for
human life and much more unites totalitarianism to different terrorist groups that they
can differentiate.”
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Dante Notaristefano. President AIVITER. ITALY
”Let me return briefly to the feeling of brotherhood, that unites us here and try to prove
that this has nothing to do with rhetoric.
When Parliament introduced the European Day of Victims of Terrorism, a few months
after the tragic events that took place in this city, when in 2005 the first edition of this
anniversary, and when there was still the European Network of Victims of Terrorism,
was born thanks to the European Commission programs, our group decided to use the
date of March 11 to start a confrontation with the reality outside the country. “
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Guillaume Denoix de Saint-Marc. President de la association Française des Victimes du Terrorisme(AFVT).FRANCE

functioning. To effectively fulfill its mission we have the moral support, technical and
financial support from public authorities but also the help of civil society”

the current status of associations of victims of terrorism in Europe. Journalists Spanish,
Portuguese, Italian and United Kingdom, to give a few examples, shared space and time
with the victims of terrorism in their respective media reported on successive days for
all the events planned and developed by the network in Madrid. The speakers shared
with the larger audience the work of different countries by different associations, as well

As we have already announced, all volunteers receive a training workshop called
“Communication for Peace”, through which all the volunteers knew the existence, aims
and work of the European Network of Victims of Terrorism, and receive specific
training in transmission of values of peace, and solidarity with all victims of terrorism
and be able to convey this to the general public. For this reason, the primary objective
of this training, first, was that volunteers were ready to have direct contact with victims
of terrorism and the other is that the volunteers learn to have a direct contact with
society at general, also submitted to the same on a personal basis, identifying
themselves as volunteers of the European Network of Victims of Terrorism. The action
was proposed for the development of the project's objectives with regard to citizenship,
was delivering a stick to transmit those values of solidarity and we have spoken
throughout this report.
Therefore the creation of this new platform of volunteerism and the development of this
project developed several training seminars on the theme of “Communication for
Peace”, which consisted mainly of the following:
1. First step: CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM OF TERRORISM AND THEIR
FAMILIES
- Knowledge of state and physical and psychological scars of the victims and their
families: theoretical knowledge and practical exposure, always anonymous to
comply with the rules of confidentiality.
- Knowledge of approaches and treatment of victims and relatives.
- Knowledge of direct support, empathy and solidarity with the victims and their
families.
- Knowledge of aid resources, institutions and public and private organizations that
support victims and their families.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
- Reflection on what the volunteers should have with respect to the victims:
* attractive smile
* Eye Gaze.
* Speak slowly.
* Empathic attitude.
* Attitude.
* Solidarity.
* Interest.
* Active listening.
2. Second step: Contact with the society
Example: I'm Juan, a student of Psychology at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid,
and volunteer for the European Network of Victims of Terrorism.
2.1 Reflection: First Printing, with the reactions that must be citizens of the volunteers:
- Attractive smile.
- Look in your eyes.
- Speak slowly.
- Attitude empathic.

Maite Paragurzuntudua. President of “ Foundation Victims of Terrorism”
“The society that supports victims of terrorism supported their freedom. Innocent
human being attacked and the active defence of human rights is undoubtedly a pillar of
strength against the terrorists.
Fans of political or religious identity, both giving, they want a weak, frail and with
memory and ready to self cowardice. Therefore, terrorists cause victims, cowering for
everyone, but against the great pillars of the community relations invisible and
insignificant wish”

MARÍA LOZANO, DIRECTOR EUROPEAN NETWORK OF VICTIMS OF
TERRORISM
Good evening to all,
Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 11, 2009 is the fifth European Day for the
Remembrance of the Victims of Terrorism.
On the occasion of this anniversary, the European Network of Victims of Terrorism has
organized a series of tributes in which over a hundred victims from across Europe who
have wanted to join Madrid and move to these days.
Many thanks and my warmest welcome to all of you, especially those that have received
fate’s of terrorism just a few days ago and, you wanted to share with us this day.
I refer to the two French citizens Chantal Hibou y Laurence Iraeta, mothers of two
teenagers injured in the recent attack in Cairo, who made the effort and are with us
today. Thank you, wholeheartedly.
I would like to do a special mention to the victims from Northern Ireland, and our
support
and
solidarity
with
the
last
attack
in
Belfast,
in which the soldiers Sappers Mark Quinsey of 23 years, and Patrick Azimkar of 21
were killed, along with the murder of a policeman in Northern Ireland last night.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Thanks for your assistance to more than 25 embassies, which have chosen to join this
tribute, making it possible for the commitment to terror and the victims of terrorism is a
global compromise with no boundaries or cracks.
Thanks to all the authorities for their assistance and thank everyone here for your
support and solidarity
Since the birth of the European Network of Victims of Terrorism in 2006, to its
formalization as a European Network of Associations of Victims of Terrorism in 2008,
Victims of France, Italy, UK, Netherlands, Portugal, Germany or Sweden may already
have a strong European support and defend their rights.
What used to be drawn as a European project is now a proven fact at this ceremony.
And it is a reality thanks to the policy of solidarity and support to victims that the
European Commission, through the financial assistance in numerous projects aimed at
helping the victims and their families, as well as the promotion of solidarity between the
citizenship to the victims of terrorism has been developing over the years.
The European Commission, along his activity and having to face the biggest terrorist
attack in its history, as were the barbarities that occurred in Madrid and London, has
shown its full backing and support to victims of terrorism and has never missed the
opportunity to express their deep and continuous feeling of solidarity with all victims of
terrorism.
And it is a reality, also due to institutional and financial support of the Government of
Madrid, since the inception of the Network supported this project and as a result of the
horrific bombings in Madrid deployed a great device for immediate help victims.
This day have to serves to demonstrate our firm and unwavering commitment to
democratic values and human rights we all share throughout Europe.
Because no terrorist act can undermine our common belief in these rights and principles,
and because there can never be any justification for any terrorist act.
Therefore, from the European Network of Associations of Victims of Terrorism:
Facing the globalisation of the terrorist attack, we develop comprehensive victims'
organizations and civil society.
Faced with the threat of network fanatical groups to democratic societies, we are a
network that works to eradicate terrorism and to protect and assist its victims,
faced with the injustice of violence and hatred, then, to all of you, a message from the
President of the European Commission and Commissioner for Justice and Internal
Security., SR. Jacques Barrot.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Continuing with this homage, and with all of you:
Mss. Ángeles Domínguez, President of the Association to Aid Victims of the M11, an
association that brings together more than 600 victims of the horrific attacks of March
11, 2004 in Madrid.
Mr. Guillaume Denoix of Saintmarc, President of the French Association of Victims of
Terrorism.
Mr. Juan Antonio García Casquero, President of the Association of Victims of
Terrorism in Spain
Mr. Dante Notaristefano, President of the Italian Association of Victims of Terrorism.
Mss. Cristina Cuesta, President of the Association of Victims of the Basque Country
Mr.Michael Gallagher, President of the Association of Northern Ireland and victims
support group for victims of Omagh.
Mr. William Frazer, President of the Association of Northern Ireland FAIR
We are a European society with the victims of terrorism.
Against those who shout from the hatred and exclusion.
We are a single European voice: the voice of the victims
Thank you very much to all the presidents for their contributions and thank you very
much to all attendees for joining us wanted to hear the voice of the victims.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
European Day for the Victims of Terrorism 11 March 2009, Madrid
Speech
Vice-President of the European Commission, Mr Jacques Barrot
This year, on 11 March, we mark the fifth European Day for the victims of terrorism. Five years to
the day of the terrible attacks in Madrid, we remember all the victims of terrorism.
We dedicate this day to show that our solidarity with all victims of terrorist attacks will never come
to an end. We do not forget those who have lost their lives or those who still bear the mental and
physical scars of these tragic events. This day is an occasion for us to once again express our
sympathy.
The European Commission will continue to support victims of terrorism, amongst others by assisting
to finance projects aiming at improving victims' lives and by actively promoting solidarity with them.
We hope that this small contribution can offer them some assistance in the difficult task of having to
cope with such a terrible experience.
In addition, the EU will continue its fight to combat terrorism. Following the attacks in the US, in
Madrid, in London, in Mumbai and recently in Cairo and Belfast we have made significant progress
in working together to confront terrorism. Work is carried out in various fields, including, for
example, our efforts to prevent terrorists from collecting and gaining access to funds which would
enable them to travel and hide or purchase the means to attack.
Our action in the fight against terrorism is based on the absolute primacy of the rule of law. This
means that we fight terrorism by the law and within the law. Fighting terrorism is about preserving
our most fundamental and cherished human rights and this means that we must uphold these human
rights with every step we take.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
This day also gives us an opportunity to demonstrate clearly that no terrorist will ever be able to
diminish or even destroy our strong faith in these shared values. Terrorist acts will never pay off and
there will never be an acceptable reason for them.
There can never be adequate compensation for the victims or for the families of the victims of
terrorism. However, we can stand by them as we do today, expressing all our sympathy and
continuing our efforts to try to prevent such attacks in the future.
My name is Michael Gallagher I live in a small town 75 miles West of Belfast Ireland I
am married with three children two girls and a boy my first experience of trauma
through terrorism was on the 3rd of June 1984 my youngest brother was a member of
the security forces his name was Hughie he was married with two small children and
was 26 years old The I.R.A. ambushed him and three gun men murdered him he was
alone and unarmed. Then on the 15th August 1998 our 21 year old son Aiden was in
Omagh town center buying jeans the Police received warning phone calls that there was
a car bomb near the Courthouse and evacuated the people including Aiden to the
opposite side of town the terrorists had given false information. The bomb exploded
where the people had been evacuated to Aiden was killed along with 30 other people
mainly woman and children. The car bomb had been parked outside a school uniform
shop the dead included two young people from Madrid Fernando Blasco Baselga and
Roclo Abad Ramos, 11 other Spanish children where also injured some returning to
Madrid by air ambulance. There were 372 people injured some lost limbs and one girl
was left blind.
The Omagh bomb was the worst single atrocity in the 35-year history of terrorism in
Ireland and the most devastating event to happen to our family we still find it very
difficult to come to terms with Aidens death.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
After the Omagh bomb I found myself drawn into a world that was new and
challenging, I believed that after losing two wonderful people I could not stand by and
do nothing this was not an option for me anymore I challenged the terrorists for what
they did and the Government for what they did not do. Shortly after the bomb the
victims formed a support group to share our experience and help each other through this
difficult period. The support group was named Omagh Support and Self Help Group
and has continued to grow. We currently have over 180 members and we offer practical
support to victims such as social activities, educational programme, Complementary
therapies, Archiving, Welfare Advice, Befriending and Youth work. In addition the
group continues to meet regularly and keep pressure on the government to address
issues, which affect victims.
We have taken a civil action against those who bombed Omagh and the court case
began in April this year in Belfast and is due to end next month. We the families will
continue to seek justice and truth however long it takes.
I have attended many international conferences since the group has been set up. My
message to victims of terrorism is not to give up hope we must continue to support each
other it is not an easy journey but it is important to build links with others who have
suffered from terrorism both nationally and internationally we have a great deal to share
with each other those who have suffered should not be forgotten that is why we are here
today.

5th ANNIVERSARY 11M
EUROPEAN DAY ON MEMORY AND REMEMBRANCE
FOR VICTIMS OF TERRORISM
TERRORISM CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY
Campaign: THE INCLUSION OF TERRORISM AMONG INTERNATIONAL
CRIME UNDER THE STATUTE OF THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT
Authorities, dear colleagues, dear victims of Spain and Other European countries, good
afternoon
I begin my speech by expressing my condemnation of recent terrorist attacks
perpetrated in Northern Ireland and recalling the three fatalities: Marck Quinsey, Patrick
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Paul and Stefan Azimka Carroll also want to send a message of sympathy to the
wounded and Irish society North and particularly the victims of this community here
today.
Tomorrow is the fifth Anniversary of the worst terrorist attack that Spain has suffered,
and democratic Europe in which tribute was set up their victims in the European Day of
Memory and remember victims of terrorism. 192 people were killed, 1858 injured,
millions of Spanish and people from all parts of Europe experienced the horror 11 M. It
Changed our perception on terrorism, opened up new fears and plunged us into the
impotence of recognizing the magnitude of the crime to which we were facing. It was
not the first time that Islamic fundamentalism attacked Spain, it had in 1985 at the
restaurant “el Descanso” causing 18 deaths, was not the first time that Spain was
attacked by terrorism, we were thirty-six years to suffer. Up to 11 M-terrorism in Spain
had snatched the lives of 1083 people.
Before the 11-M, the Spanish victims of terrorism, particularly victims of ETA, had
suffered in solitude in the seventies and eighties and had managed, with much effort,
which began in the nineties the process of upgrading and social solidarity and
institutional setting in major events such as those held by Miguel Angel Blanco and
politically in the Covenant by which rennet Liberties Act of Solidarity, the most
important law of moral recognition and dignity of victims of terrorism. In 2004, despite
the accumulated experience of pain, many Spanish citizens feel safe. 11 M reveals a
vicious and ruthless manner innocent of all victims of terrorism. All could have
travelled on those trains that day, at that time, our brother, our neighbour, our son could
have been there ...
Any human being minimally sensitive to the pain of others, describes the M11 as a
crime against humanity. Many stories, how many dreams, how many projects have been
thwarted. Lives with the murderers removed the right to live and develop, joys, sorrows,
problems and hopes that we are as people. Disrupted the essence of being human: our
fragility and our compassion. We are left stunned by her thirst for hatred, not knowing
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
what to think, feel, an infinity vacuum gripped our beliefs, we find suffering and evil
with a capital "for which we were not prepared or protected. That day I feel the deepest
inclement the total of all terrorist acts.
M 11 attacks were crimes against humanity, the humanity of those irreplaceable that
were on the trains and the hosting of our humanity by the murderers who raped split.
That space and time of life of normalcy for the future was snatched unfairly and today
we reaffirm the need for memory, dignity and justice in the memory of those absent
from the city of Madrid from the heart of Europe
Represent the collective victims of terrorism in the Basque Country, a region of
democratic Spain, the democratic Europe that enjoys a precarious and insufficient
democracy. Recently a group of Belgian politicians from different parties active in two
days spent touring towns in the Basque Country, living with the threat, by asking the
victims. Chistinne Defraigne, the Liberal Party told back: "When I proposed to
participate in this expedition, I remembered the actions of ETA, but I could not imagine
that this was what I was going to find. It is impressive that burden of lead, the pressure
that represents a violation of fundamental individual freedoms. I returned shocked
because everything that happens in the heart of Europe and feel like screaming But what
are we doing? What does the Council of Europe? Because there's a job to do, which is
the raison of the Council of Europe with the fundamental democratic freedoms are
being violated in the most total and complete indifference, because violence is part of
daily and, as I said a university professor, this is intolerable banality, ends up accepting
the unacceptable
Today we live in times of hope which must come into being, we demand that come into
being, in the formation of a Basque government to stop humiliating the victims and
ideologically legitimise terrorism of ETA. We pledge to support this strategy of political
ethics to regain justice freedom and defeat the band in all their fronts, in this way the
democratic parties will always have us on their side.
There is plenty to do but we walk in the right direction: the European Union must
finally agree on a common policy that chooses the action for prevention, the absolute no
recognition of terrorism and all its environments and the disqualification of their radical
goals
The best tribute we can make to the victims of the M11 and all victims of terrorism that
we recognize in them is to fight terrorism to ensure that all terrorism in international law
is considered a crime against humanity, like slavery, genocide, torture. That we continue
to denounce any terrorist act as a bankruptcy of the ideal of human beings and their
victims and victims of totalitarian ideologies and strategies with different excuses that
are responsible for the violation of basic human rights among the civilian population,
innocent and defenceless in many cases. This line of argument is defended today by
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
international agencies: the UN, the European Parliament. We must take new steps,
opening a way to support effective interventions and practices that expand our
awareness of the unacceptable, unjust and unjustifiable acts of terrorism committed
anywhere in the world.
The European victims with the Spanish on the front line are an example of
perseverance, fortitude and democratic pedagogy. We demand protection laws call for
the expansion of international legal guarantees of protection, we ask more coverage in
the defence of our freedom to the enemies of freedom and peace.
For this reason, a special day we know the symbolism of starting an international
campaign launched by Covite with the support of the European Network of Victims that
aims to reach the maximum possible support to the International Criminal Court a
proposed amendment for the Review Conference of the International Criminal Court to
be held from July 1 2009 to include terrorism among international crimes within the
jurisdiction of the Court.
We’ll request this year to all the victims of organized terrorism anywhere in the world,
authorities in the field, human rights institutions, political institutions, governments and
academic authorities to support us in this task by the courts against impunity.
We also consider your support, thank you very much.

Speech by the Vice President of ““Mouvement Pour la Paix et Contre le
terrorisme” ( MPCT).
Madrid, March 11. European Day of Victims of Terrorism
Ladies and gentlemen, dear friends ... Good afternoon
I will introduce myself: Mr. Alexandre SEBB, Vice President of the Movement for
Peace and Against Terrorism, part of the international alliance against terrorism.
I spoke with excitement to be with you .... on behalf of my organization:
We thank the European Network of Victims of Terrorism and its representative in
France for this invitation.
In paying tribute to victims of the Madrid attacks, all the Spanish victims of terrorism
and all the European victims of terrorist acts in Europe or outside Europe, we should be
pleased with the tradition of mobilization against terrorism in Spanish society, much
greater than in our country
In France, unfortunately, even with the wave of bombings in 1995, Paris citizens have
never answered as Madrid. After September 11, Madrid and Berlin, not Paris, organized
the largest events in Europe.
Representing the "Mouvement Pour la Paix et contre le terrorisme" (Movement for
Peace and Against Terrorism), a human rights association, focusing on the universal
condemnation of terrorism and solidarity with their victims and being a member of the
international alliance against terrorism I have to transmit a double message:
-
Mobilize against terrorism doesn’t concern only to Europe
Mobilize against terrorism doesn’t concern only the victims
We welcome the existence of the European Network of Victims of Terrorism, and
we congratulate its creators, Maria Lozano and his partners in all countries,
especially our friends from Italy, Spain, Northern Ireland and France.
This allows to Europeans victims to stay united and that their voice is heard more
strongly ...
But terrorism “strikes” every day anywhere in the world, often at several points at once.
This Sunday March 8, when her young friends organized a march in Levallois-Perret,
near Paris, in tribute to a brilliant young man of 17 years, Cécile Vannier who was
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
killed in an attack in Cairo, on Sunday February 22 2009 Terrorism continued its
campaign in Algeria, Iraq, Northern Ireland.
So the moral struggle in solidarity with the victims, their right to justice, against the
subservience to the dictates of the terrorists can’t stop at the borders of the European
Union.
It should be an international feeling in solidarity with the victims and the strong
condemnation of terrorist organizations, including the funding partners and those who
claim the attacks deliberately targeting civilians, using the most brutal violence in the
name of the cause they claim to defend.
We are also pleased to have partners in the international alliance against terrorism
beyond Europe.
Terrorism was not only to their victims. Concerns to society as a whole which is a
potential target for terrorists.
We are also proud to various civil society organizations that are aware of this scourge
in France: association of anti-racism, the promotion of women and other democratic
movements.
Little by little they have been involved in the events we have organized in the wake of
September 11 since 2004; two conferences on terrorism and the launch of the
International Day against Terrorism the last September 11.
We must develop our struggle to be stronger, to speak with more power, to continue
growing within the civil society.
We are also the bearers of a proposal:
Organize the second International Day against Terrorism on September 11 by signing
the petition of NO TO THE TERROR that will provide governments and the United
Nations.
For peace and against terrorism ... POR LA VIDA Y LA LIBERTAD
JUAN ANTONIO CASQUERO. AVT. SPAIN
First of all, I would like to thank everyone here and express my joy at knowing the
assistance of representatives of associations of victims of terrorism across Europe. And
I only can to begin with these shocked words to remember the two people who were
killed in a terrorist attack just a few days ago in Belfast. You will always be in our
memory. Likewise, we hope and trust in the recovery of those injured in this crime.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Long time ago, that one of the issues that I consider important in the fight against
terrorism is the international cooperation. Terrorism can not be seen as a fragmented, as
an issue endemic to each of the affected places.
Terrorism is a global attack on the most basic values, the most fundamental rights of
human beings. It is the negation of the most basic principles of coexistence and mutual
respect.
From my point of view it’s a mistake to confront this phenomenon as inextricably
linked to exclusive and social environment in which each finds expression. It is also an
error that the terrorists themselves know very well and take as advantage.
And so it is that mutilation, murder and extortion committed by terrorists magnified
their impact with a primary purpose for them: to terrorize the population, forcing it to
change the focus on issues that, for channels social legally established in our Western
democracies, they get a response of society that isn’t pleasant for the terrorist in
question or who, without actually making a direct terrorist attacks, will benefit from the
results.
This is the big mistake we commit: to mix crime with the reasons used by the criminal
to justify his crimes. In doing so, the terrorist attack takes its full meaning for the user.
It is true that terrorist acts have a special status because of severe fear and disruption of
the normal coexistence .But the way to restore peace, security and normal living can
never be trying to adapt reality to the alleged "claims" to stop terrorist crimes. It
shouldn’t never be mixed with the political issues that failed, through legal and
democratic institutions, the terrorist seeks to impose by violence.
These dividing line between good and evil, without any other consideration of any
political or otherwise, which seems so clearly marked in our societies, it becomes
especially vague when borders between countries stand in the treatment to terrorism.
And so, terrorist groups such as the ETA in Spain, they become in the bass majority of
the European press as an "armed separatist groups”, and mixed in the same note,
political issues related to what are no more which attacks the most fundamental rights of
human beings. That is exactly what the terrorists want, and that is exactly the reward
they seek.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
While we, democratic societies, are determined to not form a bloc against terror, and
ours judicial systems are dedicated to aggressively hindered each other, terrorism as a
phenomenon has long understood that unity is strength and his disregard f
or human life joins the different terrorist groups much more that what can
differentiate.
In this way, hiding behind legal tricks often based on differences between countries,
terrorists succeed in many cases to circumvent the courts of the place where the have
committed attacks.
It is very sad as the union and collaboration between international terrorists is much
greater than unity and international cooperation between those who fight against terror.
It is very sad as the International Criminal Tribunal still not considers terrorism as a
crime against humanity and, as a result, crimes of terrorism could be subject to
prescription.
We, the victims could give an important step in the creation of this block against
terrorism. We must set an example for the institutions, working and feeling terrorism
occurred outside borders as our. Helping, supporting seamless. The vital experience that
means to be a victim of terrorism makes us being united and turns insignificant the
difference in language or nationality. That is why, for me, this project launched by the
European Network of Victims of Terrorism is full of excitement and hope.
As all we know, a day like today, 11 March 2004, happened the worst terrorist attack in
the European history. For all of us, victims of terrorism, for all those who have lost their
lives at the hands of any fanatic heartless, and in defines of the values of respect we’ll
continue working tirelessly.
Thank you very much
Juan Antonio García Casquero.
President of the Spanish Association of victims of terrorism

President of AIVITER
I have today a deep sense of closeness and deep gratitude for allowing our delegation is
in Madrid on the anniversary of the Atocha massacre in 2004 and to celebrate V Day of
Victims of Terrorism.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
We, and I think the other European associations will agree, hope we would never have
had to develop our association, but sometimes it is necessary to ask what would be the
collective memory of the events and victims who belong to the entire community
without the work of custody, which is one of the social purposes.
In Italy, in particular, our work for decades to defend the human rights of victims and
their families, seems almost as disturbing memories of an era that not only wanted to
erase the memory but also eliminate the awareness collectively. Only in recent years, 30
years after the fact, the memory of the victims was treated as a civic virtue. Thanks to
the recognition of our President of the Republic, Giorgio Napolitano, and under the law
passed and promulgated in 2007, we have fought for years, we have signed off on the
Parliament .The Italian government created the "Day of Memory for Victims of
Terrorism and the attacks” by setting May 9 coinciding with the anniversary of the
assassination of Aldo Moro, president of “Democracia Cristiana” and several times
Prime Minister, who was kidnapped and subsequently murdered by the Red Brigades in
1978.
Thinking of Aldo Moro I recently noted that “it can not tell, because they are not trying
to survive the abyss in which it was launched, and therefore forever lost the right to talk.
Therefore, his jailers in the past can still keep him poisoned through the use of the
instrumental memory. It necessarily depends on the use of current needs (legal,
political, moral, psychological, religious) of free men, or in search of freedom, but not
the historical reconstruction what happened in a past that continues to exercise the
monopoly and dictatorship of paradoxical testimony”
If there is a risk with the dictatorship of the witnesses, as I think doesn’t happen only in
Italy, then we must be proud to have played and continue to play an important action to
protect the families of many victims, both civilian and military, to fight terrorism,
because that means breaking the monopoly of the memory, preventing the silent voice
of the victims who were annihilated by the vociferous terrorists chorus, even in
converted former terrorists.
Let me turn briefly to the sentiment of brotherhood that we share here and try to prove
that this has nothing to do with rhetoric.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
When Parliament introduced the European Day of Victims of Terrorism, a few months
after the tragic events that took place in this city, when in 2005 the first edition of this
anniversary, and when there was not yet the European Network of Victims of Terrorism
born thanks to the European Commission programs, our association decided to use the
date of March 11 to start a confrontation with the outsider national reality borders. Then
we began to organize public meetings each year, with guests from Spain: Vicenç
Villatoro first director of radio and television and the Catalan newspaper "Avui" then
Angeles Pedrazar, Miryam’s mother, who died in the attacks against trains in Madrid
and now leader of the Association to Aid Victims of the 11 – M.
Angels reminded us in a simple and terrible way her feelings: " March 11 began like
any other and no one would have thought that day would change my life: I became an
orphan of a daughter!
How "everything could happen?
That was the worst day of my life and nothing would be equal for me or for my family.
When the media gave details of the victims and wounded, they did not take into account
that although they’re numbers, we are many more families that still exist! Overcome the
first shock, the pain began, an immense pain of the soul that you can not breathe.
And as if you were tortured, when you think you're dead, you revive"
Vicenç concluded his speech with an appeal that contains an important concept that I’ve
used today: "What the victims of terrorism feel ideologically closer to understanding
whether or not may seem less victims than those who have died or have been directly
affected. The ideology of the terrorists is not a variable in judging the morality of
terrorism - if existent - or the pain of the victims.
Thanks to Mary Lozano and his organization for their hospitality, thanks to the
authorities and delegations for their attention.

Intervention de Guillaume Denoix de Saint Marc
Ladies and Gentlemen, good afternoon.
We are here tonight reminding a dramatic event, which has disrupted the lives of most
people in this room: terrorism.
Therefore, it is difficult for me to say I ‘m happy to be here. However, perhaps my own
story could give hope to some.
I am a French 45 years reared in Anglophone Africa (Nigeria, Uganda and Kenya). I
was 26 years when my father was killed in the deadliest attack against France on
September 19, 1989.
The objective of this attack was an DC10 aircraft of the French airlines UTA. The flight
(UT 772) from Brazzaville (Congo) bound for Paris (France) with a scale in N'Djamena
(Chad). N'Djamena was where my father boarded. The plane exploded over the Ténéré
desert, Niger, one of the hottest and driest in the world. The 170 passengers and crew of
18 different nationalities, perished immediately. There were many children and young
people. 99 victims were from Africa, the rest of the passengers were Europeans and
Americans.
To find answers to many questions in the wake this act, I joined an association of
victims of terrorism and participated in the work of the association during the
investigation of the Judge Bruguière in a proceeding "in absentia", 10 years after the
attack. Six senior Libyan officials, diplomats or members of the Libyan secret services
were sentenced to life imprisonment. Among them, the brother of Colonel Qaddafi,
Abdullah Senoussi ...
As the sentences were not executed, my wife and I decided in February 2002 have a
meeting with Colonel Qadhafi`s son, Saif al-Islam, who was in quasi-official visit in
Paris, preparing to restore the Franco-Libyan relations. After a confrontation, was
agreed to begin negotiations for a dignified end of the case. In the period after we
created this partnership, the partnership became: "The families of the UTA DC-10" that
sought to all those affected by this tragedy, especially in Africa. Using my connections,
and the media, we have succeeded in obtaining support from the French government.
On behalf of the group, my wife, my cousin and I have negotiated for two years,
directly with Libya, Tripoli, London and Paris. During the Summer of 2003,
negotiations led to an extreme tension between the United States, France and Libya
because of the demand for lifting of UN sanctions against Libya, filed in connection
with the Lockerbie case. The negotiations were followed by the international media and
added more tension. Finally, January 9, 2004, an agreement was reached. The Libyan
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
recognizes their responsibility and agreed to pay a compensation to the relatives of each
victim.
One of the most difficult objective to achieve was that the amount should be the same
for each victim, regardless of their nationality. Then we created the Foundation for the
attack of DC10 to find and identify each of the 1 350 people affected to receive their
compensation. The foundation, created by the victims, helped all beneficiaries
worldwide, particularly in the Congo and Chad ... I directed the work of the Foundation
until June 2006 and have been their manager.
In 2007, me and members of the other family’s victims, went to the scene of the attack,
where everything has remained intact. It was agreed to erect a monument ... which was
created after a few months, involving 140 people from the nearest town, Agadez, more
than 500 Km away. I participated in the design of the memorial and led the work for a
month, on the ground.
I wrote a book about the story and a document published a few days ago, with details of
the Memorial construction.
As all this has helped me to heal the wounds caused by this attack and have served to
control the residual psychological pain, it could be quite imaginable that I departed from
this world of terrorism and turn the page ...
Far from it; I’ll continue the duty of memory for the bombing of the DC10. Also, our
association is concerned with the victims of other attacks and other cases: the bombing
of La Belle in Berlin in 1986, the Bulgarian nurses in Libya and the attack on the plane
of President Habyarimana, Rwanda ... and therefore we have decided to join the
European Network of Victims of Terrorism and help in this work.
At the end of 2008, the other French Association for Victims of Terrorism, "SOS
Attentat", decided to dissolve. Our members, the European Network of Victims of
Terrorism and the French authorities (Presidency of the Republic and the Ministry of
Justice) have encouraged us to take another dimension and become the reference
association in France. We are very conscious of the need, but we know the weakness of
our resources.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
On February 22, 2009, a group of French teenagers were victims of an attack in Cairo;
Cécile Vannier, 17, died. As you might imagine, we were shocked by this tragedy. This
painful crime has also proved that our presence is necessary. We have therefore taken
up the challenge.
We offered immediately our assistance to the victims and their parents (two mothers of
affected children are also here tonight) and we decided to create a few days ago, the
French Association of Victims of Terrorism. This is a new working structure and
functioning. To effectively fulfil our mission we have the moral, technical and financial
support from public authorities, as well as support from civil society.
So after a careful consideration and with great humility before the task ahead, I’ve
accepted a few more years to help the victims of terrorism.
Thanks for your attention.

ANGELES PEDRAZA. AVT. SPAIN
Good morning,
Thank you for your assistance and special thanks to all the victims came from outside
Spain. I make special mention of the Association for the 11-M and in particular to
Maria Lozano, director of the Network who has allowed us to meet them all and
celebrate together the 11th day tribute to all the victims of terrorism.
My name is Angeles Pedraza and Ilost my daughter Miryam in the attacks in Madrid
the March 11 2004. She was killed that day with other 190and were injured over 1500.
After 5 years since the slaughter in Madrid, and 5 years since the Parliament decided to
establish this day as the day of the remembrance of all the victims of terrorism across
Europe, we are observing how from the institutions and policies are forgetting to leave
tributes. Because of that I think that’s very important the work that is being doing from
the European Network. The authentic and greatest tribute that people can paid is not
giving us a medal or expressing the intention that it will be no more victims: of course
we do not want more victims, but at what price ?
If the only problem is that, the remedy is very easy:
To give all up and the murders would cease immediately and everyone happy. Of course
terrorists delighted.... but what about the rest? How about live bullied and bowed before
them? And above all, what happen about having caused so much pain and the sacrifice
and heroism of many? If this was the remedy we could have been implemented it
decades ago. But if we have not bowed it before it would be incomprehensible and
deeply immoral, just do it now .It’s not enough to enjoy certain fundamental freedoms
... We need to know how to defend them, each in his place, otherwise we will not be
worthy of a gift so wonderful as we enjoy freedom thanks to the generosity of many ...
Who have come to be killed for trying to preserve it. Terrorists will never, never reach
the point, neither good or medium, or bad, just come to know the only thing to do
(killing and terrorizing), it is a very serious mistake and an example of absolute
incompetence considered "wrong people" to which maybe you can convince with a
special effort and with communiqués by the government. Why not try to negotiate the
release with rapists, abusers, paedophiles ....¿do you lose time with this or would be
launched directly to stop to do justice and protect their victims? If they don’t act like
that in these cases ,why the should do it in the issue at hand? Perhaps because the fact
of terrorism is a less serious violation? These terrorists have the nerve to talk about
torture, with what moral authority? Do you really want to talk about torture? Well let's
talk ... To torture the hostages who have suffered, to the torture of parents whose sons
have been killed, torture of widows who will not live to see their husbands go through
the door of the house, the children orphans, those who can not re-embrace a brother, a
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
friend to a loved one now that's torture! Certainly it does not prescribe a torture,
however their if crimes.
Look, there can be no draw in this fight as some claim, at the height of incompetence
and the shamelessness of some politicians. A tie is impossible, here there will always be
winners and losers in this brutal battle, and it is better that the victors are not terrorists
because they and we represent very different values: To begin with respect for life,
liberty and justice are on our side. At his side do not even know what are these concepts
to them ... From its deep intellectual and emotional weakness do not support an
argument, and only know what they are intended to impose his vision through terror ...
to kill some daunt many. So it is better that the victors we, who believe in human
dignity and the rule of law, which to match, you must deliver justice in capital letters.
And of course sometimes we are concerned that there is talk of making tributes and
monuments from the government and not even mention the word justice ... And we
must remember that there are many cases still unresolved, not to mention the
outrageously bad resolved.
. It is very regrettable that the attack in Madrid (the largest attack in
Europe) after 5 years still does not clarify who or who were the intellectual authors, we
do not know who came, who went on and we still do not know why and what for.
Our credibility as a civilized country goes through the complete clarification of this
slaughter. The victims have attended as invited stone fact and everything you said about
the attack and in the end I want them clear to all attendees who are here today, that after
five years, after a trial of nearly 5 months, and 29 defendants, only one has been
convicted perpetrator, the rest were police informants, and common criminals convicted
of belonging to an armed or terrorist.
Since the European network through associations that comprise it have to commit to any
terrorist crime is not to judge or condemn. We must fight together for the Madrid
attacks, the Omag and many different groups of terrorists, not go unpunished, not the
murderers are free and are not without condemning that refugees in countries where we
do not have extradition agreements. Since the network we have to fight because the
terrorist crimes are reported as crimes against humanity or crimes against humanity. We
can not allow a time for red tape, other times so slow that is justice, sometimes by
having international support, spend time and prescribe the murders. The deaths of our
loved ones if not presquiben never never be late to condemn any terrorist.

ELOY MORÁN SUPPORT 11M MADRID. SPAIN
Good morning everyone. My name is Eloy Moran and I am one of the hundreds of
people on March 11, 2004 in Madrid became a victim of terrorism. Today we remember
that tragedy that changed our lives dramatically for thousands of people directly and
shocked the entire Spanish and European society in general. Because of that European
and international solidarity, today we also celebrate the V European Day in memory of
the victims of terrorism and remember all those who have suffered terrorist acts that are
so opposed to the values embodied in our continent. So today, I am particularly happy
to be surrounded by friends from other countries although the most of them, I don’t
understand because of language problems ... I feel we all share the same feelings
without speaking a single language. So let me say what a pleasure is to share with you
these days
I am a member of the Association to Aid Victims of 11M since its inception, a member
of the Board. From the first day that the Association put in place, we went to work with
many more ways to win. Our fundamental objective has been to serve and support
victims of 11M manner as an attack as brutal as that suffered, which has no parallel in
our continent, has also spawned some needs, which by their size, they had no precedent.
Therefore, our Association arises, to try to cope with the enormous needs generated by
such a brutal and affecting so many people at once. Unite in the misfortune of the
unknown, to what happened before and everything that was to come ... and stay together
even more in the situation where we are today and explain that at the end of my speech.
Throughout this time we have developed works and studies on social, psychological,
judicial and public opinion against terrorism, trying to satisfy the identified needs of
survivors and relatives. We have also had the opportunity to share experiences and
knowledge with other associations beyond our borders and the result is that we can
surrounded by friends today.
I said before that such a brutal and unknown fact, such as M11, joined the victims of the
attacks on Associations. The need to share with others with whom they are your equal,
to those who have gone through the same as you, your pain and your experience and try
to support relief and cohesion with the unknown to determine the members of any
association and share also the hope that one day we will be able to prosecute those
responsible for clearing all this horror and all the unknowns of the attack, connects us to
all the victims even more determined.
It is now five years from the attack and fortunately the needs in the short term, more
immediate and urgent step left to other stages over time. Because the needs and support
required in the early stages are different to the needs in the medium and long term.
However, over time, we can’t ignore the terrible certainty of knowing that those who
organized, designed and planned slaughter that are not yet available to the Justice.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
I said before that you can’t be indifferent to the fact that the masterminds of the attacks
remain free. I stress that this argument goes beyond the claims of the victims but is
shared by the whole of Spanish society because it can not be otherwise. A phrase that is
shouted at the crowd demonstrations that took place shortly after the attacks sums up
what I want to share with you all. I was in the hospital, obviously ... and I could not
scream about that, "In all these trains were going." Popular cry that embodies very well
the feeling that unites us and our shared determination
So to end, I can tell you that today we can not understand the attitude of the Court has
judged that the bombings. On numerous occasions since the ruling was final and charge
people in the trial, we have requested access to the summary court to continue our work
in an attempt to dispel the doubts hanging over the attacks. But today, Judge Gomez
Bermudez has been unable to accede to our legitimate demands if only for the simple
fact that the law protects us. More than 4 months been waiting for a response from the
Tribunal and honestly believe that it is not acceptable. Because we are all over the world
has the right to exercise legal action because we need to move forward with
investigations and this Court is required to meet our demands in the biggest terrorist
attacks in the history of Europe.

Daniel Klein - French - sister of Jean-Pierre Klein, one of the victims of the
bombing of flight UTA DC-10 September 19 1989.
The aim of this attack, perpetrated by Libya, was against a DC10 aircraft from the
French Airlines UTA. Theft (UT 772) from Brazzaville (Congo) headed to Paris
(France) with a scale in N'Djamena (Chad). The plane exploded over the Ténéré desert
in Niger, one of the most warm and dry in the world. The 170 passengers and crew of
18 different nationalities, perished immediately. There were many children and young
adults. 99 victims were from Africa, other European or American.
Immediately after the attack, I was the only of the French association for the protection
of victims of the attacks.
This attack was a crime perpetrated by a State, Libya of Gadaffi , against another State.
The families of the victims, we realized quickly that stake in the centre of a highly
political terrorism case, so ultra-sensitive ...
Throughout the years, unfortunately, we could not observe more than the complete lack
of various French governments of both left and right and their desire to bury the case.
No politician has shown a sincere desire to really help, support and defend the victims'
families. Every success, every step has been achieved in the fight. The victims have
always been faced with the political administration in order to achieve concrete results.
For years, ministers, presidents have agreed to honour with his presence the day of the
commemoration of the attack before returning rapidly to their affairs.
The attack of the DC 10 had become a sort of “hot potato” for the French government
with policies that are adopted each year to avoid disrupting the regime of Colonel
Gaddafi, for fear of losing some lucrative contracts.
In 2004, 15 years after the attack, Guillaume Denoix de Saint Marc, whose father was in
the plane, and some families with him, decided to take our destiny with the creation of
the group of angry families of DC10 - and reality - a small group of a dozen people
connected by friendship.
After a fight of 2 years, the Collective of Families, has achieved what nobody had in 15
years.
We questioned the politicians denounced demonstrations each representation and
Libyan officials in each appearance in France. We have been in contact with the media,
etc ... to pressure and create a foundation. We have received a decent and equal
compensation, and each family received a little more justice to be recognized as victims
and knowing a bit of truth.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
On the contrary it was not clear the Khadafi repentance. We faced during 4 days in
December 2007, the visit and the welcome extended by France to him as Head of State
of 1st order. And ironically it was because of this last diplomatic episode that a
president finally agreed to receive us 18 years after the attack!
In 2007, the group built in the desert of Niger a monument at the site of the attack on
the plane. Only some of us were able to access the site because it is very difficult to
reach. Many of the wreckage is scattered under a scorching sun, guarded by desert, as a
sanctuary.
We obtained the promise of President Sarkozy to help us get there, as both families had
wanted… This was a year ago
We have learned to be patient, and calm.

ROBERTO DE LA ROCA. Vice President of the Italian Association of Victims of
Terrorism-AIVITER
V European Day of victims of terrorism. MADRID, 11 March 2009
Authorities and estimated delegations of the European associations, and all participants,
I express my deepest gratitude to the organizers of these events and especially to the
Association to Aid Victims of the M11. On behalf of the Italian Association of Victims
of Terrorism (AIVITER)) and his delegation comprising the President Dante
Notaristefano, the Secretary Diotti, Judge Maurizio Laudi, the responsible for
international relations Luca Guglielminetti, Parliamentarian Sabina, the journalist
Luciano Borghese from "La Stampa de Turin”, Luca Teles from" Il Giornale de
Milan” and Concetto Vecchio of “ La Reppubblica di Roma”
We are here today March 11, 2009, the fifth anniversary of the commemoration of the
terrorist attacks in the Atocha and day commemorating all victims of terrorism
proclaimed by Parliament in 2004.
Italy, in the late 60s and even 80s along with other European countries have suffered an
attack of blind violence, linked to a domestic terrorism with a crazy political ideology
and not free from contact with other European organizations.
The recognition of the facts and the victims still appears extremely difficult in our
country. In those years the attacks occurred daily, names, dates and biographies rarely
appeared in the chronicles in the newspapers. Those bloody events were exiled to
deepest oblivion in police files.
The memory of the victims, the lives of their families, broken by the emotional and
physical trauma have been almost completely forgotten in, forgotten by society and the
state. In all these years have been victims associations in charge of preserving his
memory and reclaim his teaching and example.
The price of blood in Italy during the "years of lead" was very high. There are more
than 7,000 attacks with more than 400 dead and thousands injured.
The list includes law enforcement, social workers, judges, academics, journalists,
politicians, corporate leaders, ordinary citizens ...
In Italy, after 30 years of these attacks is that it seems strange that most of the killings,
despite the sentences did not exist except in some cases. Also little is known of the
attacks. It is not known beyond the criminal liability of individuals who appear as
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
authors.
The long-awaited demise of this great state secret, it would be a desired and apply
today.
It is essential a revision of laws and conventions, at least among European countries to
finally disclose the whole truth. Not only bring to light the documentation retained by
the different authorities of a State but also the confidential documents to promote the
justice and truth. This is not revenge, it is the moral necessity of knowing the historical
facts and do justice.
We know that in Italy almost all convicted terrorists have paid their accounts with the
law serving a sentence in some cases providing certain facilities. Impunity must cease
for a period of decades. The countries of the European Union must work together
against terrorists who are directly or indirectly linked to the status of political refugees.
When we are faced with decisions of a sovereign and democratic state, the terrorists
must be extradited to serve their sentences lawfully imposed
Now as in the case in the international terrorism of Cesare Battista, fled to Brazil ..
Cesare Battisti in Brazil, where he escaped from the Italian courts because he was
convicted during a long process. But do not be in Brazil today had it not received
assistance in France, where several terrorist Italians living recipients of the "Mitterrand
doctrine". These issues are already resolved, as it is unacceptable that even today there
are people that support this in a country of the European Union.
The nations that have directly experienced episodes of terrorism must be consistent in
the pursuit of the sentences. Otherwise it would be an ambiguous message that is sent to
new generations. It is as if the supply of arms, ideologies and their "bad teachers" were
a constant in the history of terrorism.
Nowadays in Europe we have a “domestic” terrorism, but in 1998 we start to see an
evolution in which the phenomenon did not escape from the vision of our late President
Mauritius Puddu who said:
"Terrorism will become a phenomenon at the international level, as a new form of
warfare with which we must live. And with this new emergency we have to prepare for
the dilemma of having no means of preventing such conflicts as happened in Italy
during “the lead years”.
This century began with last September 11 in 2001. From that date, terrorism has been
the focus of all security posts in the world of emergencies. With the blood shed in the
U.S., the first place, followed in Madrid and then in London spread like a stain of oil on
different parts of the world.
NAVT JLS/2008/E4/003-30-CE-0222844/00-11
Each attack is happening in the world occurs in different ways. Besides this the pain of
the victims and their families. For example, here in Madrid, killing 192 people and
injuring more than 1800. Thousands of additional data were destroyed.
Even the continuing existence of the pain of forever families.
After each attack is the one who dies in an instant, and are always the victims are often
forgotten over time.
Therefore, we have the painful duty of remembering the victims and the reasons for
their sacrifice to give meaning to the destruction of many families but especially for not
letting the future come mortgaged by the terrorist actions and social actions prevail.
Together assume the commitment not to forget as a measure of a society free from any
form of revenge and show the pain of delivery to the new generations.
We are relatives of those who died in vain and we must transmit the values to society.
We recall that in the name of safeguarding the democratic state and the constitutional
values.
