Not so long ago, on the radio, Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty (RFE / RL) there was a message from Steven Korn, head of the RFE / RL that he wishes to resign "for family reasons".As stated by a member of the BBG, Victor Ashe, "Steven Korn care was necessary for the survival of Radio" Liberty ".He disliked and feared by most of the staff. "Earlier, the press reported that Radio Liberty violates human rights - despite the fact that is positioned as itself a human rights organization.The resignation of Radio Liberty Council confirmed the US international service (Broadcasting Board of Governors, BBG), which is the curator of all non-military international media, sponsored by the US government.
The website of the Council on international service USA (BBG) was previously reported that the organization checks the Russian service of Radio Liberty in connection with the scandal of massive layoffs of employees.However, the Council on international service tried not to publicize the fact that the human rights organization The Czech Helsinki Committee for a long time trying to draw public attention to a serious problem.This is probably one of the few cases where a human rights organization filed a lawsuit against other human rights organizations for violating human rights.It was widely publicized appeal to the court of the former employees of the Czech RFE / RL Snjezana Pelivan and Anna Karapetyan, who believe that their rights have been violated.It was found that an employee of Radio Liberty, who are not citizens of the Czech Republic or the United States, signed a contract stating that they are under the jurisdiction of the United States, as RFE / RLuchrezhdeno in America.However, as it turned out later, the US labor law does not apply to non-citizens of the United States, though working in an American company.It turns out that neither the Czech Republic nor the United States can not protect the rights of employees of RFE / RL, as it happens today in the case of Snezana Pelivan and Anna Karapetyan.Repeatedly, over the years we talked about discrimination against foreign workers RFE / RL, several times even held hearings in the Czech parliament.Only thanks to influential patrons such organizations are able to reduce the charges to zero.
Some observers suggest that the problem of human rights violations, which is also true of the recent reforms in the Moscow office, called the media interest, which resulted in a wide resonance in the society.This is not permissible for pravozatsitnoy organization.And eyewash possible and it was decided to dismiss the head of RFE / RL.Today, the US government is trying to wash away the image of the violator of human rights, as ardent defenders of, or, more precisely, positioning themselves as such.Therefore impermissible to Radio Liberty, funded by the US government, had a reputation on which the United States so you must get rid of.
Other commentators and analysts suggest that the resignation is also associated with the deterioration of the reputation of the organization, but for other reasons.Reputation, according to observers, has deteriorated due to the custom nature of numerous publications on the resources of RFE / RL, the use of unreliable sources, which resulted in a number of publications describing the events that have no place to be.Also often become involved in writing, activists with a strong personal interesting.All this is diluted with comments pseudo-experts.
Today Radio Liberty is active coverage of all kinds of human rights violations, mainly the former Soviet Union, often accused the government of Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Russia's human rights violations.As one of the prominent human rights defenders, "Radio Liberty - one of the oldest human rights organizations, which began to promote human rights and freedoms.However, few people know that the entire work of the organization is based on a violation of fundamental human rights. "RFE / RL, on the assumption of another human rights activist, "has strong support from the US government, so all the negative information quickly suppressed, as well as accusations against the organization."
