LONDON: The ?politics of demonization? provided fertile ground for human rights abuses in 2017, exemplified by the response of Europe and Donald Trump?s US to the refugee crisis, rights group Amnesty international said Thursday.
The British-based group in its annual report took particular aim at the US president?s ?transparently hateful? executive order banning entry to citizens of several Muslim-majority countries. ?Throughout 2017, millions across the world experienced the bitter fruits of a rising politics of demonization,? said the report, which was launched this year for the first time in the United States. It accused leaders of wealthy countries of approaching the refugee crisis ?with a blend of evasion and outright callousness?.
?Most European leaders have been unwilling to grapple with the big challenge of regulating migration safely and legally, and have decided that practically nothing is off limits in their efforts to keep refugees away from the continent?s shores,? it added.Amnesty also said Myanmar?s military crackdown on Rohingya insurgents, which prompted an exodus of nearly 700,000 Rohingya people into neighbouring Bangladesh, was the ?ultimate consequence of a society encouraged to hate, scapegoat and fear minorities?.
