If anybody thinks that the situation could have been worse than it was last year, all we have to do is look at the evidence: poverty, food shortages, continuing oppression, the elimination of political opponents, the continuing incarceration of a Sakharov and Nobel Peace Prize winner, the continuing oppression and suppression of any alternative viewpoint being brought forward.
(EN) Se peut-il que la situation soit pire que l'année dernière? Pour répondre à cette question, il suffit de constater l'évidence: pauvreté, pénuries alimentaires, répression permanente, élimination des opposants politiques, incarcération continue d'un lauréat du prix Sakharov et du prix Nobel de la paix, oppression et rejet systématiques de tout avis divergent exprimé.
