RES: [governance] Rights issues in Azerbaijan / What will CS @ Baku do?

[Vanda UOL]

Robert, you right and let´s also pay attention to the vote in US Senate as
below. Even being a US internal issue still lots of government are used to
follow US bills . I personally do not believe the Senate will vote in favor
and still have Obama´s veto to use. But worth some attention.

best

Assunto: [governance] Rights issues in Azerbaijan / What will CS @ Baku do?

 

Dear colleagues,

 

With all the focus on IGF MAG renewal and remote participation, let's not
forget that the Governance Caucus should not lose track of the violations of
human rights that are being reported in Azerbaijan.

 

We need to make sure the UN and Azeri hosts make commitments that allow for
respect & protection of Freedom of expression and association not only for
participants of the IGF  but also those in the country. 

 

As i've mentioned to many of you privately, we face a Tunis 2005 type
scenario - that being, dealing with a well known and documented repressor of
online activists and  human rights. We can not be complicit  in their
repression nor be used as pawns in their PR campaign as to how great the
country is.

 

To not challenge the country to do better - before, during and after the IGF
in Nov - is to not be faithful to the hard fought inclusion of Human Rights
in the IGF 2005 summit documents.

 

Look forward to everyone's comments.

 

regards

 

Robert
