V skladu s poročilom Amnesty International za leto 2007 je bilo v tem letu vsaj 1252 usmrtitev v 24 državah in 3347 smrtnih obsodb v 51 državah.
According to Amnesty International’s 2007 report, that year saw at least 1252 executions in 24 countries and 3347 death sentences in 51 countries.
88 % vseh zabeleženih usmrtitev je bilo izvedenih v petih državah: Kitajska (vsaj 470), Iran (vsaj 317), Saudova Arabija (vsaj 143), Pakistan (vsaj 135) in ZDA (42). , je pa spodbuden dokaz velike učinkovitosti, ki jo EU lahko ima, če govori z enim glasom ter deluje vztrajno in usklajeno.
88 % of all recorded executions took place in five countries: China (at least 470), Iran (at least 317), Saudi Arabia (at least 143), Pakistan (at least 135) and the US (42). , is encouraging as evidence of the powerful effectiveness which the EU can have when it speaks with a single voice and acts in persistent and coordinated fashion.
Dialogi in posveti glede človekovih pravic: razvoj in značilnosti
Dialogues and consultations on human rights: development and characteristics
V letu, zajetem v poročilu, je bilo zabeleženo večje število strukturiranih posvetovanj in dialogov o človekovih pravicah, ki so se v različnih oblikah redno odvijali med EU in tretjimi državami.
The year covered by the report witnessed an increase in the number of structured consultations and dialogues on human rights carried out in diverse forms between the EU and third countries on a regular basis.
Poročilo ne ponuja količinske porazdelitve teh dialogov (govori o več kot 30 dialogih in posvetovanjih o človekovih pravicah in dodaja, da so se odvijali na petih celinah).
The report does not provide a quantitative breakdown of these dialogues (it speaks of ‘more than thirty’ dialogues, consultations and forums for debate on human rights, adding that these take place ‘in five continents’).
Jasno pa je, da obstaja težnja k širjenju teh instrumentov, ki so pomemben del svetovne strategije EU na področju človekovih pravic.
Nonetheless, it is clear that the trend is to extend these instruments, seen as a key component of the EU’s global human rights strategy.
Ta napredek je treba pozdraviti.
This development is to be welcomed.
Vseeno pa to ne pomeni, da bi se moral pristop EU razlikovati glede na naravo partnerja ali interesov, ki so pomembni za odnose z njim.
However, this does not mean that the Union’s approach should vary according to the nature of the partner or the interests at stake in the relationship.
Ne moremo biti povsem idealistični, zaželeno pa je, da si Unija prizadeva za čim večjo skladnost in prepreči, da bi zdrknila v realpolitiko z vsemi negativnimi posledicami, ki jih ta prinaša.
While one cannot be totally idealistic, it is desirable that the Union should seek to be as coherent as possible and avoid lapsing into Realpolitik , with all the adverse consequences which that involves.
Potreba po skladnosti je povezana z dvema področjema.
This need for coherence concerns two fields.
Najprej je potrebna skladnost med institucijami Unije in državami članicami, kjer morajo slednje ohranjati čim večjo enotnost v smislu ciljev, vrednot in stališč.
First, it is important to ensure coherence between the Union institutions and the Member States, while the latter should maintain the highest possible degree of unity in terms of objectives, values and attitudes.
Druga in pomembnejša pa je skladnost, ki je potrebna za izogibanje stališčem, ki bi utegnila predstavljati, ali dajati vtis, da predstavljajo, kakršno koli uporabo dvojnih meril, ki jih s svojo močjo določa partner ali interes.
Second and more important, coherence is required in order to avoid positions which might represent, or give the appearance of representing, any practice of double standards determined by the power exercised by the partner or the interests at stake.
Na žalost v številnih primerih zgolj obsojanje ali protest ne izboljša zadev in je lahko celo neproduktivno.
It is unfortunately the case that in many cases condemning or protesting alone will not improve matters and may even be counterproductive.
Ves čas se moramo zavedati možnih posledic naših dejanj, pobud in odzivov, tako da bo ocena teh posledic v smislu opredelitve in uporabe sestavni del odločanja.
We need to be aware at all moments of the likely consequences of our actions, initiatives and reactions, in such a way as to make the evaluation of those consequences, in terms of definition and application, an integral part of decision-making.
EU je po lastni izbiri in po svoji naravi sila, ki je bolj usmerjena v prepričevanje kot v vsiljevanje.
The EU is, both by choice and by its nature, a power more oriented to persuasion than to imposition.
Vseeno pa njene izbire uporabe mehke sile ne gre zamenjevati za šibkost ali nedoslednost.
Nonetheless, its preference for ‘soft power’ should not be confused with weakness or inconsistency.
Organi politične moči Unije morajo ves čas zmerno, a vseeno trdno in skladno, ohranjati možnost sankcij v primerih vidne neskladnosti z obstoječimi sporazumi o človekovih pravicah ali pri očitnih kršitvah človekovih pravic.
The Union’s political power authorities must at all times, with moderation but also with firmness and coherence, keep open the option of sanctions in cases of visible non-compliance with the existing agreements on human rights or of flagrant human rights violations.
Pri tem je pomembno, da EU nadaljuje in še poveča pritisk na tretje države, da sprejmejo Rimski statut Mednarodnega kazenskega sodišča.
It is essential in this connexion that the EU should continue and step up its pressure on third countries to accede to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2004_2009/documents/pr/667/667365/667365es.pdf , pozivata k izboljšanju mehanizmov obveščanja in sodelovanja Parlamenta ter posvetovanja z njim v dialogih ter k racionalizaciji sankcij EU proti tretjim državam, s čimer bi zagotovili, da bi se v primeru kršitev določb o človekovih pravicah iz različnih sporazumov med EU in njenimi partnericami, EU vedno odzvala s skladnimi ukrepi, ki bi temeljili na jasnih in preglednih merilih, ki bi omogočala objektivno oceno.
http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2004_2009/documents/pr/667/667365/667365es.pdf called for the improvement of the mechanisms for the information, consultation and participation of Parliament in the dialogues, as well as the rationalisation of EU sanctions against third countries, so as to ensure that in cases of abuses that violate the human rights provisions included in the various types of agreement between the EU and its partners there is always a response backed up by coherent action grounded in clear and transparent criteria permitting an objective assessment.
Glavno merilo na področju človekovih pravic, ki zadeva resnično trpljenje velikega števila ljudi v svetu, ne bi smelo biti niti iskanje takojšnje rešitve z denunciacijo, predvsem politične in medijske narave, niti ohranjanje lažnega realizma, ki težave utiša in posluša le interese vlade ali raison d'etat.
The main criteria in the field of human rights - a matter which concerns the real suffering of large number of people in the world - should not include either seeking immediate effect for a denunciation, especially where it is of political character and relayed by the media, or preserving a false realism which hushes things up and obeys only government interests or raison d ’ etat .
Treba si je prizadevati za kratko, srednje ali dolgoročno zagotavljanje konkretnega in pozitivnega učinka s pomočjo kompleksnega in neprekinjenega delovanja, vključno z različnimi razsežnostmi dialoga, zavezništev, prepričevanja ter, kjer je potrebno, trdnih in skladnih ukrepov, ki po potrebi lahko vodijo k uporabi sankcij ali mednarodnih pravnih instrumentov.
What should be aimed at is to ensure a concrete and positive impact, in the short, the medium and the long term, by means of a complex and continuous action including the various dimensions of dialogue, alliances, persuasion, and, where necessary, firm and coherent measures and pressures which may if required lead to sanctions or recourse to international legal instruments.
Zato je treba ves čas upoštevati in ohranjati vrsto načel, predvsem skladnost, tesno sodelovanje med institucijami Unije, objektivnost, ostrino in preglednost pri izvajanju ukrepov proti kršitvam človekovih pravic.
In this context, it is necessary to pursue and maintain at all times a number of principles, including overall coherence, close cooperation between the Union institutions, and objectivity, rigour and transparency in implementing action against human rights violations.
Delovanje EU v Svetu Združenih narodov za človekove pravice
The EU ’ s actions in the UN ’ s Human Rights Council
V razpravah Parlamenta o predhodnih letnih poročilih je bil večkrat poudarjen pomen uspeha pobude o reformi sistema Združenih narodov na področju človekovih pravic.
The debates in Parliament on the previous annual reports have repeatedly stressed how important it is that the initiative for reforming the UN’s human rights machinery should succeed.
EU je pozdravila oblikovanje Sveta za človekove pravice, ki pomeni veliko izboljšanje in prednostno nalogo za prihodnost.
The EU has welcomed the creation of the Human Rights Council as a major improvement and a priority for future action.
Vseeno je jasno, da je Svet za človekove pravice prostor za dialog, soočenja in konfliktna trenja med različnimi vrednotami, interesi in pojmovanji raison d'état ter bo to ostal tudi v prihodnosti, čeprav zaenkrat še ni prišlo do globokih razhajanj kot prej v Komisiji za človekove pravice.
Nonetheless, it is clear that, although it has not so far exhibited the severe divergences that marred the old Human Rights Commission, the present Human Rights Council is - and will continue to be - a terrain of dialogue, confrontation and conflictive tension between different values, interests and conceptions of raison d ’ état .
Šestdeset let po podpisu splošne deklaracije o človekovih pravicah in kljub napredku današnjega zgodovinskega obdobja je splošni značaj načel te deklaracije zaradi kulturnega relativizma in kršitev človekovih pravic na zahodu zdaj bolj sporen kot kadarkoli prej.
Sixty years on from the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and despite the advances of the present historical period, the universal character of that declaration’s principle is now more contested than it was at the time, on grounds of cultural relativism and of the breaches of human rights practised in the West.
Svet človekovih pravic je tako dejansko kot simbolično forum velikega pomena v kontekstu oblikovanja načinov soočanja s stanjem, ki bi v najhujšem primeru lahko povzročilo resno škodo verodostojnosti splošnega koncepta človekovih pravic in tako ogrozilo učinkovitost mednarodnih ukrepov za spodbujanje in varovanje tega koncepta.
The Human Rights Council is a forum of particular importance, both concretely and symbolically, in the context of creating a means of dealing with a situation which, in the worst-case scenario, could result in a serious undermining of the credibility of the universal concept of human rights, thus sapping the effectiveness of international actions for the promotion and defence of that concept.
Glede vprašanja raznolikosti in pluralnosti vrednot in kultur ter nagnjenosti k relativističnim zaključkom v zvezi s tem pojavom, moramo spomniti, da ljudje po svetu pričakujejo od EU, da bo pri zagotavljanju človekovih pravic kot splošne vrednote ravnala skladno in odločno.
On the matter of the diversity and plurality of values and cultures and the tendency to draw relativist conclusions from that phenomenon, we need to recall that throughout the world there are people who expect the EU to act coherently and forcefully in order to affirm human rights as a universal value.
Treba si je prizadevati za okrepitev Sveta za človekove pravice kot verodostojnega in učinkovitega organa.
We need, then, to work to strengthen the HRC as a credible and effective body.
Dokončanje reforme in sprejetje delovnih postopkov bi moralo omogočiti njegovo večjo učinkovitost, da se bo lahko soočal z nastalimi pričakovanji.
The completion of its reform and the adoption of its working procedures should launch a period of greater effectiveness, allowing it to meet the expectations it has generated.
Za učinkovitost in verodostojnost splošnega rednega pregleda je pomembno, da se izvaja na podlagi razpoložljivih prejšnjih poročil, ki jih pripravijo preiskovane države in ustrezni organi Združenih narodov, ter na podlagi opomb ustreznih nevladnih organizacij.
For the effectiveness and credibility of the UPR, it is important that it should be carried out on the basis of the available prior reports, to be drawn up by the country under examination and the relevant UN bodies, together with the remarks of the appropriate NGOs.
Razvoj prakse splošnih rednih pregledov bi služil za učinkovito regulacijo lastnega poročanja držav in za sodelovanje med državami ter tudi za opredelitev odgovornosti in poročanje nedržavnih akterjev.
The development of UPR practice should serve for the effective regulation of countries’ own reporting and for cooperation between countries, as also for the definition of responsibilities and reporting on the part of non-state actors.
Poročilo brez olepšav (kar je pohvalno) navaja, da je EU v Svetu za človekove pravice v manjšini in da se bo v teh okoliščinah morala upreti nadaljnji izolaciji in se zavzemati za nadaljnji dialog, ki bo presegel regionalno razdeljenost.
The report states, without mincing its words (and this is commendable), that the EU ‘is in a minority position in the Human Rights Council’, and that in these circumstances it ‘will have to resist the temptation to remain isolated and endeavour to pursue dialogue transcending regional divisions’.
V teh razmerah mora biti EU pazljiva ter spodbujati nadaljnji razvoj Sveta za človekove pravice in izvajanje rezultatov njegovega dela.
In this situation, the EU must exercise vigilance and encourage the further development of the HRC and the implementation of the fruits of its work.
Zato si mora Unija znotraj svojih meja in zunaj njih prizadevati za čim širša zavezništva in večine, katerih skupni cilj je prispevati k učinkovitosti in verodostojnosti Sveta kot ključne institucije za izboljšanje človekovih pravic v svetu.
To this end, the Union must seek, within and outside it, the broadest possible alliances and majorities, with the common objective of conferring effectiveness and credibility on the HRC as a key institution for advancing the cause of human rights in the world.
Delovanje Unije mora biti usmerjeno v oblikovanje in razvoj medvladnih koalicij na medregionalni in svetovni ravni ter v spodbujanje oblikovanja soglasja na ravni javnega mnenja različnih svetovnih držav in regij.
This Union action must be aimed at forming and developing intergovernmental coalitions at interregional and global level, and at encouraging consensus-formation on the level of public opinion encompassing the different countries and regions of the world.
To so nedržavni akterji, ki se ponavadi na EU obračajo v pričakovanju, da bo postavila zgled.
These are non-state actors who typically look to the EU in the expectation that it will set an example.
Potreben je nadaljnji razvoj dialoga in sodelovanja z vsemi temi nedržavnimi akterji, ki z EU delijo niz skupnih prizadevanj: univerzalizacija demokracije, nenasilno reševanje konfliktov, enakost med spoloma, trajnostni razvoj in na splošno napredek na področju človekovih pravic v smislu resničnega in skupnega svetovnega napredka.
We need further development of dialogue and cooperation with all these non-state agents, who share with the Union a set of common aspirations: the universalisation of democracy, non-violent conflict resolution, gender equality, sustainable development, and generally the advancement of human rights on a context of real and shared global progress.
Ekonomske, socialne in kulturne pravice
Economic, social and cultural rights
Pomembno je že samo dejstvo, da poročilo vsebuje poglavja, posvečena ekonomskim, socialnim in kulturnim pravicam.
It is significant in itself that the report contains sections on economic, social and cultural rights.
Kot je dobro znano je obstajala, in do neke mere še vedno obstaja, doktrinarna razprava med tistimi, ki menijo, da temeljne človekove pravice vključujejo pravico do oskrbe s hrano, dela in razvoja, in tistimi, ki se zavzemajo za pravno in politično omejitev območja človekovih pravic na civilne pravice posameznika in politične pravice v strogem pomenu in menijo, da bi s podelitvijo pravnega statusa ekonomskim, socialnim in kulturnim pravicam povzročili zmedo.
As is well known, there has existed, and to some extent still exists, a doctrinal dispute between those who believe that fundamental human rights include the rights to food supplies, work and development, and those who, preferring the legal and political restriction of the territory of human rights to the area of individual civil and political rights in the strict sense, believe that any steps to give juridical status to economic, social and cultural rights are liable to sow confusion.
Z vključitvijo teh poglavij v svoje poročilo o človekovih pravicah v svetu, se je EU postavila na stran tistih, ki na ravni mednarodnih institucij in civilne družbe menijo, da mora svetovna agenda vključevati zahtevo po postopnem prehodu, v konceptualnem in praktičnem smislu, k posebnemu pravnemu režimu za zaščito ekonomskih, socialnih in kulturnih pravic
By including these sections in its report on human rights in the world, the EU has aligned itself with those who, at the level of international institutions and civil society, believe the global agenda must include the requirement of gradually moving, in both conceptual and practical terms, towards a specific legal regime for the protection of economic, social and cultural rights
Na tem mestu bi opozorili na besede Bernarda Kouchnerja, Javierja Solane in Benite Ferrero-Waldner pri predstavitvi letnega poročila: „Vse civilne, politične, ekonomske, socialne in kulturne pravice so nedeljive, soodvisne in se vzajemno krepijo“. .
Here we may draw attention to the words of Bernard Kouchner, Javier Solana and Benita Ferrero-Waldner in their introduction to the Annual Report: ‘All civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights are indivisible, interdependent and mutually reinforcing’. .
Izbirni protokol k mednarodnemu paktu o ekonomskih, socialnih in kulturnih pravicah, ki ga je sprejela generalna skupščina Združenih narodov, je dobrodošel korak naprej v tem procesu potrditve medsebojne odvisnosti in nedeljivosti človekovih pravic.
The adoption by the UN General Assembly of the optional protocol to the International Pact on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights is a welcome step forward in this process of affirmation of the interdependent and indivisible nature of human rights.
EU se mora s potrebno prožnostjo, ki izhaja iz naravne raznolikosti ekonomskih, socialnih in kulturnih pravic, trdno zavzemati za vključitev teh pravic v pravna besedila prek procesa na mednarodni ravni, ki bo zagotovo dolgotrajen in zapleten.
Allowing for the requisite flexibility, a characteristic reflecting the inherently diverse nature of economic, social and cultural rights, the EU must take a firm stand in favour of incorporating those rights into the legal texts, by means of a process at international level which will necessarily be long and complex.
Navdih za ta mednarodni ukrep izhaja iz listine Evropske unije o temeljnih pravicah, ki je bila sprejeta leta 2000 v Nici ter katere vrednote in načela imajo po našem mnenju splošno veljavnost.
The dynamic behind this international action takes inspiration from the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU adopted in Nice in 2000, whose values and principles have, in our view, universal validity.
V uvodu letnega poročila je zapisano, da „je boj za človekove pravice dolgotrajen“.
The introduction to the Annual Report states that ‘the fight for human rights is a long-term one’.
EU mora v tem boju ohraniti vodilno vlogo.
The EU must maintain its leading role in this fight.
V mednarodni skupnosti in prek svojih institucij v očeh velikega dela svetovne javnosti ter kljub lastnim omejitvam in protislovjem danes Unija velja za glavno zagovornico človekovih pravic na področju mednarodne politike.
In the international arena and through its institutions, the Union is seen today, by wide swathes of public opinion worldwide and despite its own constraints and contradictions, as the principal defender of human rights in the sphere of international politics.
Na tem področju kot tudi na splošno na vseh področjih, povezanih z mirom, demokracijo in razvojem v svetu, obstaja velika „potreba po Evropi“.
There is an enormous ‘need for Europe’ in that sphere, as there is in general in all areas relating to peace, democracy and development in the world.
O Evropi pa dvomijo tisti, ki trdijo, da svoja načela uveljavlja le tam, kjer ji to ustreza ali le za svoje državljane.
Europe, however, is also called in question by those who claim that it applies its principles only where it suits it to do so or only for its own citizens.
Najboljši odgovor na takšne kritike je zagotavljanje skladnosti med notranjim in zunanjim delovanjem EU na področju človekovih pravic.
The best response to such criticisms is to ensure consistency between the EU’s internal and external action on human rights.
Zato moramo razviti vzorno politiko priseljevanja in zagotoviti, da bo obstajal strog in zavezujoč nadzor prakse vseh držav članic v boju proti terorizmu.
For this, we must develop an exemplary immigration policy, and ensure that there are rigorous and binding controls on all Member States’ practices in the fight against terrorism.
Sprememba oblasti v ZDA bi morala omogočiti nove oblike sodelovanja, s katerimi bi lahko odpravili vse resnične ali domnevne odzive, ki bi lahko kršili pravice ali dostojanstvo posameznika.
The change of administration in the US should now facilitate new forms of cooperation which can eradicate all real or suspected responses of a nature liable to violate the rights and dignity of all.
Vsak drug odziv na resen izziv, ki ga predstavlja terorizem, je nesprejemljiv in resnično neproduktiven.
Any other response to the severe challenge posed by terrorism is unacceptable and, indeed, counterproductive.
1) obnovljeno prizadevanje za odpravo smrtne kazni povsod po svetu, pri čemer opozarjamo, da bi sedanje generacije lahko doživele uresničitev tega cilja;
1) a renewed effort to achieve the abolition of the death penalty worldwide, recalling that today’s generations may see this become reality in their lifetimes;
2) feminizacija ukrepov in programov EU, da bi več pozornosti namenili človekovim pravicam žensk;
2) the ‘feminisation’ of its actions and programmes with a view to paying closer and more specific attention to women’s human rights issues;
3) izboljšanje medinstitucionalnega sodelovanja med Svetom, Komisijo in Parlamentom pri vprašanjih človekovih pravic, ki zahtevajo usklajenost in največjo možno skladnost stališč in ukrepov institucij;
3) improved interinstitutional synergy between Council, Commission and Parliament on human rights issues, necessitating closer coordination and maximum consistency of the institutions’ positions and actions;
