BRIEFING NOTES - (1) Uganda; (2) Viet Nam

1) Uganda
We are deeply concerned by
the deteriorating human rights situation in Uganda ahead of
parliamentary and presidential elections scheduled for 14
January and the challenges this situation may pose not only

period.
In the run-up to the election, numerous human
rights violations have been reported, including of the
rights to freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and
participation, as well as arbitrary deprivation of life,

US Urges Vietnam to Release Convicted Journalists

The United States has called on Vietnam to release all people "unjustly detained" and to allow individuals "to express their views freely, without fear of retaliation," according to State Department principal deputy spokesperson Cale Brown.

The statement came out Thursday after Vietnam delivered "harsh sentences" at a quick trial Tuesday in Ho Chi Minh City to three members of the Independent Journalists Association (IJAV). Pham Chi Dung was sentenced to 15 years in prison and Nguyen Tuong Thuy, and Le Huu Minh Tuan were sentenced to 11 years each.
