State Visit of Hu Jintao in France: Human Rights Concerns Should Finally Be Addressed!
November 3, 2010
HRIC joins the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), International Campaign for Tibet (ICT), and the French League for Human Rights (LDH) calling on French President Nicolas Sarkozy to put human rights issues at the top of the agenda of bilateral meetings.

Fundamental safeguards entrenched by international human rights standards and by the Chinese Constitution are not met, despite declarations to the contrary by the officials. More »
