International Human Rights Day (EDM391)

International Human Rights Day

EDM number 391 in 2009-10, proposed by Nigel Evans on 08/12/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights and Iran.

That this House welcomes International Human Rights Day on 10 December 2009; condemns those countries where human rights abuses occur on a daily and systematic basis; notes that on Monday Iranian authorities ordered foreign news outlets not to cover the protests that came on National Student Day, which were reportedly dispersed with the use of tear gas and militia brutality; further notes that in Burma, the case of Aung San Suu Kyi highlights the cruel suppression of democracy and perpetration of war crimes and crimes against humanity by the military junta; and calls on international agencies, including the UN and EU, and each sovereign state, to refocus their attention on human rights violations wherever they occur throughout the world.

This motion has been signed by a total of 109 MPs.
