Ramos-Horta shoots down Amnesty International
Following on from earlier, this is from a press release today:
In response to a Press Release issued by Amnesty International (AI) on 8th March, in which it is claimed that President Jose Ramos-Horta now supports calls for an International Tribunal for the crimes committed between 1975 and 1999, the President clarifies:
"I remain firmly unconvinced that the interests of the victims of my country and the cause of peace and democracy are best served with an International Tribunal".
The AI Press Release inaccurately reported and thus misrepresented the discussion the President had with elements of Amnesty International during his recent short engagement with the University of Bradford.
