PetrUhl - Human Rights as Whipping Stick

Czech journalist, political activist and politician Petr Uhl wrote an article on Tibet and how the current situation can be misinterpreted easily:

As in Kosovo. ...The matter is not human rights, or protection, but on the contrary weakening, and in this case of China..."
