MADRID, June 9 (Xinhua) -- Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos will tell the European Parliament that his government did not know about the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency(CIA) secret flights of terror suspects via Spanish airspace, a senior official said Friday.

    To make this clarification, Moratinos will make an extraordinary appearance before the European Parliament, Deputy Prime Minister Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega told reporters.

    Fernandez said the European Commission, the executive arm of the European Union, was wrong in saying that the CIA flew over Spanish cities Palma de Mallorca and Tenerife while transferring terrorist prisoners.

    The Spanish government "has not tolerated and will not tolerate any violation of human rights wherever they should take place," Fernandez said.

    The European Commission issued a report on the CIA flights on Wednesday listing Spain as one of 14 European nations that allegedly had actively or passively cooperated with the CIA to transport terrorist suspects on secret flights. Enditem
