10/10/2001 (Agence Europe) - European elected member of the Lista Bonino, Olivier Dupuis, has written an open letter to Nicole Fontaine, European Parliament President, in which he is highly critical of the "fallacious" arguments put forward, he says, by the Parliament's security services to justify cancellation of the conference that the EP Radicals hope to organise on 17 October in Brussels. The theme of the conference was to be the situation in Eastern Turkestan after 50 years of occupation by Communist China. The relevant Belgian authorities "proceeded to later controls on the identities of the persons invited in a perfectly comprehensible way" and gave the go-ahead, said the MEP, who considers that the ban placed on the conference "does not constitute a particularly positive signal towards the Muslim world".
