“La défaillance du pouvoir politique est un phénomène désormais mondial, a déclaré Salil Shetty, le secrétaire général de l’organisation. D’un pays à l’autre, on a vu l’an dernier des responsables politiques répondre aux manifestations par la brutalité ou par l’indifférence. Les gouvernements doivent faire montre de leur légitimité à diriger et refuser l'injustice en protégeant les plus faibles et en modérant les actions des plus puissants.”

“El fracaso del liderazgo se ha convertido en una cuestión global durante el último año, en el que los políticos han respondido a las protestas con brutalidad o indiferencia.
