Egyptian Rights Group: Human Rights Deteriorate in Arab World
[AP] The Cairo Institute for Human Rights Studies said Friday that human rights in the Arab world have deteriorated over the past year and the future looks bleak for reform. The group accused Egypt of using its influence in various international organizations to thwart human rights reform, and criticized the Arab League for supporting repressive regimes in Sudan and Yemen. "The Arab League has become more expressive of authoritarian tendencies than any time in the past," the report said.
