'Anti-Prostitution Pledge' Said to Endanger Sex Workers, Trafficking Victims 05/31/2005 The Bush administration's new interpretation of a pair of laws would withhold HIV/AIDS funds from U.S.-based as well as foreign organizations unless they sign a pledge to oppose prostitution.

Sudan: arrestato il capo di Medici senza frontiere in Darfur 05/31/2005 Medici senza frontiere (Msf) conferma la notizia dell'arresto in Sudan di Paul Foreman, il responsabile della propria delegazione, per la pubblicazione di MSF di un rapporto su centinaia di violenze sessuali in Darfur. Secondo il regime di Khartoum il rapporto sarebbe "falso": le autorità sudanesi avrebbero spiccato il mandato di cattura ed avviato un procedimento penale contro la sezione olandese di Msf. Il Rapporto, pubblicato in marzo, riporta testimonianze di medici su 500 casi di stupro compiuti in quattro mesi e mezzo nel Darfur. In un comunicato pubblicato sul proprio sito, MSF ribadisce il "proprio diritto a diffondere informazioni sulla situazione umanitaria nel Darfur e considera le accuse infondate e un'intimidazione alla comunità delle organizzazioni umanitarie in Sudan". Proprio in questi giorni è in corso la visita in Darfur del Segretario generale dell'Onu Kofi Annan e la missione della Commissione per i diritti umani del Senato italiano.
