Mutabar Tadjibayeva: Hypocrisy of official Tashkent
“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers” – reads the article number 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which Uzbekistan joined in September 1991.
To date, Uzbekistan has ratified 70 international instruments on human rights. In official media, in briefings, in public speeches of the leadership of the country, in reports to the UPR on the sessions of the Human Rights Council – the official Tashkent has always been claiming about the ongoing reforms in the country related to human rights issues.
