State Department: Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act Implementation

Οι Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες θα συνεχίσουν να επιδιώκουν απτές και σημαντικές συνέπειες για όσους διαπράττουν σοβαρές καταπατήσεις των ανθρωπίνων δικαιωμάτων και συμμετέχουν σε διαφθορά, αναφέρει δήλωση του υπουργού εξωτερικών των ΗΠΑ Rex Tillerson. Η ανακοίνωση αναλυτικά:

Today, alongside the President and the Department of the Treasury, the Department of State took action against persons who have committed serious human rights abuse and engaged in corruption around the world. The Department is committed to protecting and promoting human rights and combatting corruption with all of the tools at our disposal. Today’s actions advance our values and promote the security of the United States, our allies, and our partners. We must lead by example, and today’s announcement of sanctions demonstrates the United States will continue to pursue tangible and significant consequences for those who commit serious human rights abuse and engage in corruption.
