Dr. Walaa Jad al-Karim, president of the Partners for Transparency Foundation, said that the human rights situation since the January revolution and not only after June 30, is clearly deteriorating, in the absence of a clear strategy to improve human rights conditions, pointing out that many of the laws issued recently contradict And blatantly with Egypt's international human rights obligations.

In exclusive statements to the "Vito", Jad Al-Karim added that there are practices indicating that there is a narrowing of the public sphere and a diminution of respect for human rights, as well as restrictions on human rights activists, saying: “The human rights situation after June 30 is much less than the ceiling of the aspirations of the citizens who left In the revolutions of 25 January and 30 June ”.

The President of the Foundation indicated that the common denominator between the governments that took over after the January revolution is hostility to the Egyptian human rights movement, its betrayal and painful strikes on it, stressing the need for there to be a real community dialogue to set the human rights agenda in the coming days, adopting a clear strategy to respect human rights, and changing the language Political and media discourse close to the authority towards human rights defenders.
