European Parliament
A6-0270/2006
Charles Tannock (PPE-DE ). –
Mr President, on a point of order, I wish to protest at the address made by Prime Minister Siniora of Lebanon to the Conference of Presidents yesterday. He made a totally biased, one-sided address and there was no catch-the-eye opportunity to reply to what he said. It was all stitched up by the political groups – fair enough, perhaps. But I would ask the Conference of Presidents, in the interests of fair and balanced reporting, to issue an invitation to the Prime Minister or Foreign Minister of Israel, so that we can hear the other side of the story.
(Loud applause)
