Hong Kong, and notably the cases of Jimmy Lai and the 45 activists recently convicted under the national security law. The Hong Kong government must immediately and unconditionally release all pro-democracy politicians, activists and journalists sentenced on national security charges, including Jimmy Lai and Chung Pui-Ken, and drop all charges against them, MEPs say.<\/p>\n<p>The National Security Law and the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance, which constitute a serious violation of international law, fundamental freedoms and rule of law in Hong Kong, must be repealed, they add. Parliament also condemns the extraterritorial application of the National Security Law and the increasing repression by Chinese and Hong Kong authorities aimed at diaspora communities in the EU.<\/p>\n<p>MEPs urge the Council to review its 2020 conclusions on Hong Kong and impose sanctions on Hong Kong and Chinese officials responsible for human rights violations. They condemn the exploitation of Hong Kong\u2019s global trade position to evade international sanctions imposed on Russia, Iran and North Korea, particularly through the supply of advanced technologies, trade in oil, and the provision of financial services.They also demand the revocation of Hong Kong\u2019s favourable customs treatment and a review of the status of the Hong Kong Economic Trade Office in Brussels. The resolution was adopted by 473 votes for, 23 against, and 98 abstentions. The full version will be available here (28.11.2024).<\/p>\n<p>MEPs condemn the arbitrary detention of women in Iran, including Ahoo Daryaei, who removed her clothing and sat partially undressed as part of her protest in the courtyard of Tehran University on November 2, 2024. She was labelled \u201cmentally unfit\u201d and subjected to psychiatric confinement, a practice MEPs say amounts to torture. The resolution urges Iranian authorities to repeal discriminatory legislation against women and girls and to dismantle the &#8216;morality police&#8217; and other repressive institutions.<\/p>\n<p>They also demand the immediate and unconditional release of all women&#8217;s rights defenders and other victims of arbitrary detention, including EU citizens, and condemn the persecution of ethnic and religious minorities in Iran, like Bh\u00e1\u2019\u00eds women. Reiterating its call on the Council to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation, (4) Parliament also calls on the Iranian government to give unrestricted access to the UN Fact-Finding Mission and the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Iran.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europarl.europa.eu\/news\/en\/press-room\/20241121IPR25548\/human-rights-breaches-in-hong-kong-iran-and-cambodia\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europarl.europa.eu\/news\/en\/press-room\/20241121IPR25548\/human-rights-breaches-in-hong-kong-iran-and-cambodia\">European Parliament<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/human-rights-breaches-in-hong-kong-iran-and-cambodia\/\">Human rights breaches in Hong Kong, Iran and Cambodia<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[4157,555,1905,383,4533],"class_list":["post-135725","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-cambodia","tag-csr-news-en","tag-hong-kong","tag-human-rights","tag-iran"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135725","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135725"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135725\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
