Andrew Tyrie<\/a>, qui dirige la commission d’enqu\u00eate des Communes. On trouve rassembl\u00e9es des indications pr\u00e9cises sur une \u00e9volution potentiellement tr\u00e8s dommageable pour les relations USA-UK et pour les int\u00e9r\u00eats am\u00e9ricains, alors que l’efficacit\u00e9 des pratiques de la CIA est largement mise en doute. Le gouvernement britannique semble ne plus accepter que de tels vols aient lieu dans son espace a\u00e9rien et il met fortement en cause leur l\u00e9galit\u00e9. Tyrie lui-m\u00eame est un bon exemple de cette \u00e9volution perverse potentielle: il s’affiche comme atlantiste, partisan des relations USA-UK mais en m\u00eame temps tr\u00e8s critique de l’action US et de son efficacit\u00e9. Il est difficile de penser qu’\u00e0 terme ne s’\u00e9tablisse pas un rapport entre les deux domaines : peut-on rester tr\u00e8s longtemps un atlantiste sans nuances alors qu’on reproche de telles pratiques aux Am\u00e9ricains?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00ab Andrew Tyrie, a Conservative parliamentarian and chairman of the parliamentary group, told UPI it was clear the government had become deeply concerned about the issue. He cited a government memo leaked to the British media last week, in which a Foreign Office Official advised ministers to try to avoid getting drawn on detail and move the debate on. The document also said the government did not know how many times the United States had requested to use British airports for renditions, which, it went on to say, were illegal in most circumstances.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb Tyrie also noted Foreign Secretary Jack Straw’s parliamentary response to the leaked memo, in which he said Britain had made clear that the U.S. would not render a detainee through U.K. territory or airspace (including overseas territories) without our permission, and reminded Washington of its international obligations under the United Nations convention against torture. It suggests they are worried that British territory or airspace may have been used to assist with renditions without permission, he told UPI.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb It was also clear that the government was worried about having to rely on U.S. assurances that nothing illegal was taking place, he said. So far these assurances had been so narrow as to render them virtually worthless. Tyrie said he had the impression that the British government wanted to bring to an end any rendition flights that may have passed through its territory, and that they believed the issue to have explosive properties.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bb The Conservative MP said he was a strong Atlanticist and believed the United States and Britain had shared security interests. But, he asked: Does kidnapping people and taking them to places where they may be tortured make us safer? In my view it does not. It undermines the very values that we are trying to export. Such practices acted as a recruiting sergeant for terrorism, as the British government had found out to its cost in Northern Ireland, he said. Allegations of rendition would galvanize moderate Muslim opinion against the West, he added; the very group it was crucial to win over if the struggle against terror was to be successful.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Il semble que la question des vols clandestins de la CIA, plus ou moins clandestins, c’est selon, commence \u00e0 r\u00e9ellement pr\u00e9occuper, voire \u00e0 exasp\u00e9rer le gouvernement Blair.
