The Society for Threatened Peoples (GfbV) will receive the Russian President Vladimir Putin this Tuesday with an „unmasking“ human rights campaign in Dresden. „We have asked the caricaturist to show Putin hiding his real face behind a harmless mask and to put this drawing, which is larger than life, on a banner“, reports the GfbV campaign secretary, Sandra Bremer.
With a campaign outside the conference hall of the Petersburg Dialogue the GfbV wants to draw attention to the continuing suffering of the civilian population in Chechnya, which Putin could end. For he is protecting the Chechnyan Prime Minister, Ramzan Kadyrov, whose militia is responsible for some 75% of the severe breaches of human rights in Chechnya. This means murder, abduction and the arbitrary arrest of whole families. Hardly a day goes past without civilians being dragged away and their relatives being confronted with high demands for ransom.
We invite you and your colleagues from the picture desk to our human rights campaign. on Thursday, 10th October 2006-10-05 from 3 p.m. until 7 p.m. At the corner of Devrientstrasse and Ostraufer opposite the ICCD (International Conference Centre Dresden) in Dresden.
During the campaign you can reach us at tel. 0174 546 02 97.
PLEASE NOTE Photographers! Our banner with a picture of Putin, his wicked face hidden behind a mask, is three metres by four metres.
