Human rights charity Amnesty has issued a warning over cosmetic changes and continuing state violence in the Middle East following the downfall of long-standing repressive regimes in the region. In a report titled Year of Rebellion: State of the Human Rights in the Middle East and North Africa, Amnesty details how calls for reform in countries that saw uprisings were met with extreme violence from governments. The report warns of possible repeated abuses in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya while it says governments in some countries will continue to hold onto power, no matter what the cost to citizens? human rights. International Interim Middle East and North Africa Director Philip Luther paid tribute to the bravery of those involved in protests: ?The protest movements across the region, led in many cases by young people and with women playing central roles, have proved astonishingly resilient in the face of sometimes staggering repression.? However, he said demonstrators? efforts had not been satisfactorily acknowledged by governments: ?But persistent attempts by states to offer cosmetic changes, to push back against gains made by protesters or to simply brutalise their populations into submission, betray the fact that for many governments, regime survival remains the aim.? http://www.amnesty.org.uk/news_details.asp?NewsID=19884 added by: CurrentUK ? 0 comments ...
