Vietnam: a 30 anni dalla guerra, persecuzioni delle minoranze

04/30/2005 Il 30 aprile 2005 in Vietnam cade il trentesimo anniversario della fine della guerra, ma indigeni e minoranze etniche non hanno nulla da festeggiare. Per loro le persecuzioni non sono mai finite. Nel rapporto sui diritti umani "Per la libert� di religione e i diritti sulla terra: Le minoranze del Vietnam chiedono la fine delle persecuzioni" dell'Associazione per i popoli Minacciati (APM) si legge che la riforma economica non ha comportato la libert� religiosa per buddisti, protestanti e cattolici. In considerazione dei metodi repressivi sempre pi� pesanti messi in atto, i monaci buddisti chiedono urgentemente aiuto. Particolarmente pesante � per� la sorte delle popolazioni indigene le quali in quanto indigeni e cristiani subiscono una doppia persecuzione. Essi pagano in prima persona il boom del caff� la cui coltivazione ha accelerato il furto delle terre delle popolazioni indigene.

Romania: continua la passione per i giornalisti rapiti in Iraq

04/30/2005 Da quando tre giornalisti romeni insieme al loro interprete, un cittadino iracheno-americano, sono stati rapiti a Bagdad il 28 marzo scorso l'opinione pubblica romena, i parenti dei giornalisti, i media e le autorit� di Bucarest sono in massima allerta - riporta l'Osservatorio sui Balcani. "Il popolo romeno vive col fiato sospeso, impotente di fronte al dramma dei tre giovani andati in Iraq per fare il loro mestiere ed ora divenuti moneta di scambio per i terroristi che chiedono il ritiro dei militari romeni dall'Iraq" - nota Mihaela Iordache. I rumeni sono scesi in piazza per chiedere il loro rilascio, ma il governo di Bucarest non vuole cedere al ricatto e continua i negoziati escludendo per� ogni concessione di tipo politico. Secondo un recente sondaggio, il 70% dei cittadini romeni desidera il disimpegno militare della Romania dall'Iraq.
