The Global Citizen: Poland
How can the United States and Europe work together to promote democracy around the world? That was the topic of discussion on June 29th as a distinguished panel--including former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, former U.S. Representative Vin Weber, and former Polish Prime Minister and current President of the European Parliament Jerzy Buzek—spoke at a National Democratic Institute event entitled "Transatlantic Dialogue: Strengthening Cooperation on Democracy Support." One important conclusion: what works in one country (including the U.S.) may not succeed everywhere.
The United Nations Committee Against Torture has urged the Polish government to share the findings of a report into its alleged collusion in the CIA extraordinary rendition program. The request by the UN panel signals serious concern over the country's participation in renditions and the transfer of detainees.
