Repression of journalism in Burma
jeudi 9 mai 2019 à 02:00In 2017, Burma jailed journalists two for reporting about government involvement in crimes against the Rohingya. Now they have been released.
It's good they were released, but we must still condemn the government of Burma for its repression of journalism.
Burma is not alone in this. The US government did something similar when it jailed Chelsea Manning. And now it is trying to attack journalism even more deeply by prosecuting Julian Assange. That is as if Burma were trying to jail the executives of Reuters.
