The European Parliament's plenary session endorsed on 8 June 2016 a non-binding resolution voicing serious concern at the 'apathy show by member states and EU institutions' about recognising 'the multiple fundamental rights violations and torture' that took place in US CIA 'rendition' operations on European soil between 2001 and 2006.

The resolution urges them to investigate these violations and to brings those responsible for or complicit in them to justice.
