10 November 2010 :
Iraqi president Jalal Talabani spoke out against the fact that his country uses the death penalty, including against ex vice-premier Tareq Aziz. Talabani said this in answer to a question from Arab League Secretary Amr Moussa, who hoped that the Iraqi president makes every effort because, "in the context of forgiveness, pardon and social harmony in the country", the ex right hand of Saddam Hussein should not be hanged.(Sources: AGI, 06/11/2010)
