Russia Criticizes US Over CIA Torture Report

ABC News

Relishing an opportunity to turn the tables on the U.S., Russia says the Senate’s investigation into the CIA torture practices has highlighted rampant rights abuse.

The Foreign Ministry’s rights envoy, Konstantin Dolgov, said in Thursday’s statement that the evidence contained in the report “contradict the U.S. aspirations to serve as a model of democracy.”  

Dolgov says the report has proven “flagrant and systemic rights abuse” and pointed that only an executive summary of the 6,700-page report was released. He urged international organizations and rights groups to urge the release of full report and the prosecution of those involved in abuses.

The Russian statement, which comes amid U.S.-Russian tensions over Ukraine, marked an attempt by Moscow to turn the tables on continuous Western criticism of Russia’s rights abuses.

  2. “Dolgov says the report has proven “flagrant and systemic rights abuse”…”

    I’m sure the 66 MILLION murdered by the Bolsheviks didn’t have their rights abused, @sswipe.

  3. How many people have “We The People” killed over the years? How come “We The People” have a hissy fit when other people condemn us for our abuses all over the world? While I tend to side with people on this site, I think some should step out of the fish bowl and view it from the outside. In this case I believe the “asswipe” is right.

    1. “How many people have “We The People” killed over the years?”

      SERIOUSLY??? WHAT THE HELL KIND OF STUPID QUESTION IS THAT?????

      ZERO, that I know of. That has ALL been the doing of the so-called ‘government’, SOMETHING “WE THE PEOPLE” HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OVER!!!

      “In this case I believe the “asswipe” is right.”

      Then you’re part of the problem, not the solution. Still stuck in the matrix if you believe Russia is the “good guy”. Lies, propaganda & illusions.

      Take the red pill.
