Stand up for the rights of American human rights organizations in Russia

Created by K.Z. on March 27, 2013

President Obama should instruct Secretary of State Clinton to join German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle in condemning Russian attacks on human rights groups. See http://uk.reuters.com/article/2013/03/26/uk-germany-russia-idUKBRE92P12G... America has been silent for too long in the fact of Kremlin attacks on human rights and now American organizations are facing Stalin-like raids seeking to silence their voices as they speak out for basic democratic rights. Vladimir Putin is seeking to roll back recent history and recreate the dictatorship of the USSR. The world looks to the USA for leadership in such dark moments and so far this leadership is lacking.
