Zimbabwe – a Human Rights Violator?
Zimbabwe – could they be violating what is right for the population?
In Zimbabwe there were many human rights that were breached and therefore Zimbabwe is a major issue in Human rights. Organisations that deal with human rights and encourage these campaigns such as Amnesty International have stated that the governing party in Zimbabwe are breaching the rights that were made by the UN.
They violate the population’s shelter, food, freedom of movement, residence, freedom of assembly, protection of law. These are very obvious human right violations that are important for the human welfare and wellbeing as these can affect health and the rights.
One reason that makes it even worse is that the government has no reason to do so unlike the Chinese. The government often sends the police to do raids and have brutal attacks to their citizen. Many organisations such as the UN has condemned this type of action due to the violence was that shed. Many of this was due to their opposition to democracy, which would have been supported by other NGOs.
One thing in Zimbabwe compared to China is that they don’t ban opposition against the government, but they have brutal attacks. They have done many things from “ran amok looting shops, destroying property, mugging civilians, and assaulting police officers and innocent members of the public” To these innocent people, when they act like this, it already violates the human right to live.
The issue in Zimbabwe is large for it affects a large amount of people and is disrespectful to the population’s rights. Violence is an abuse and violation of Article 2 as it leads to time. It also affects a number of rights and this is bad.
Currently, a possible solution could be the UN going into Zimbabwe and encouraging democracy. Another way could be defending the people being hurt and afflicted by violence
