“لقد امتد تقاعس القادة إلى شتى دول العالم خلال العام الماضي، إذ كان السياسيون المسؤولون يواجهون الاحتجاجات بالوحشية أو باللامبالاة. ويتعين على الحكومات أن تبرهن على شرعية وجودها في موقع القيادة، وأن ترفض الظلم، وذلك بحماية المستضعفين والحد من نفوذ الأقوياء”

“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.”
