The recent Human Rights Watch 2025 world report criticizes liberal democracies, noting they fail to consistently support human rights, often favoring strategic interests over humanitarian principles.
The report underscores the hypocrisy in President Biden's foreign policy, highlighting the unconditional arms support to Israel while condemning human rights abuses in Russia, thus demonstrating a troubling double standard.
A disheartening trend was identified in the national elections held last year, characterized by racism and discrimination, indicating that even in advanced democracies, integrity in human rights is compromised.
Despite the serious human rights violations observed globally, including those in Gaza and Ukraine, the report did acknowledge some victories, suggesting a nuanced picture in the global human rights landscape.
