[Title] => EU, Vatican lament new executions
[Summary] => The 15-member European Union (EU) and the Vatican have expressed deep concern over the decision of President Arroyo to lift the moratorium on the implementation of the death penalty law and selective execution.
The Public Attorney’s Office also filed a petition seeking a deferment in the execution of two death convicts whose sentences will be carried out on Jan. 30.
President Arroyo, however, remained steadfast in her decision to carry out the executions, saying this "will bolster the overall campaign" against kidnappers and drug traffickers.
