The Marty Report: Iliescu and Basescu, CIA accomplices

There is now enough evidence to sustain that in 2003-2005, Europe has had detention facilities operated by the CIA, especially in Romania and Poland.

This is the conclusion of the report regarding the CIA prisons, presented by the Swiss speaker Dick Marty to the British daily “The Guardian”.

The question arising is: who are those who signed the secret agreements with the USA? In Romania, the report holds as accountants the last two presidents, Ion Iliescu and Traian Basecu, and the security advisors close to them.

And so, the report also considers as participants to the secret CIA activity, Ioan Talpes, ex presidential counselor, Ioan Mircea Pascu, ex Ministry of Defense and Sergiu Tudor Medar, ex General Director of the Defense Informational Office.

Dick Marty’s report stated that the prisoners considered “extremely sensitive”, were imprisoned by the CIA in Poland, while the “less important suspects” transferred in Romania.

Marty does not exclude the possibility that other European states might have hosted secret prisons for the CIA, underlining that the enquiry was prevented by the USA, NATO and other countries in Europe who refused to cooperate.
