...uppermost in the minds of the foreign ministers is one that they cannot even mention in the debate. It is the torture of political prisoners in Greece. For the past three weeks, a 1,200-page report prepared by a special committee of the Council of Europe's Human Rights Commission has been in the hands of the member governments.
