20/12/2006 Sono numerosi i rapporti di varie organizzazioni internazionali sulle torture in Cecenia che vengono definite "sistematiche", ma non sembrano scalfire la sensibilità internazionale - riporta l'Osservatorio sui Balcani. Human Rights Watch, in un rapporto pubblicato lo scorso 13 novembre, sostiene che “la tortura e i maltrattamenti durante la detenzione in Cecenia sono sistematici”.

Ihmisoikeudet ovat unionin perusarvoja, joita se on sitoutunut edistämään sekä jäsenmaiden sisällä että ulkosuhteissaan. Käytännössä tämä ei toteudu.
