The British Need Human Rights as much as Do Libyans

By Nick Clegg

Deputy Prime Minister of United Kingdom

25 August 2011

While British governments have called for greater human rights abroad, they have too often belittled them at home.

Libya stands on the brink of a new future, one that holds out the promise of democracy and freedom after 40 years of oppression. One of the most important tasks facing the interim government is the prevention of reprisals. That is why David Cameron and I have urged the National Transitional Council to exercise restraint and respect for human rights.
