VOICED : La ONU crea un relator especial para monitorear la represión en Rusia

The UN Human Rights Council appointed a special rapporteur to monitor opposition repression in Russia, following a resolution supported by 17 member states, with 24 abstentions and 6 votes against, including China, Cuba, and Venezuela. The resolution coincided with the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Russian and Ukrainian entities. Despite Russia's expulsion from the Council, it retains observer status. The resolution's adoption on Putin's 70th birthday is seen as a symbolic victory for human rights advocates. However, it's uncertain if Russia will allow the rapporteur to visit.
