Despite claiming support for the principles of universal human rights, many governments and their legal authorities continue to ignore them.

Even in those countries where human rights are firmly entrenched in the legal system, these rights do not necessarily enjoy protection or respect.

Grave violations of human rights can represent crimes attracting individual responsibility.

Trotz ihres universellen Anspruchs werden die Menschenrechte in vielen Staaten von Regierungen und Behörden nicht beachtet.

Selbst in Ländern, in denen die Menschenrechte fest im Rechtssystem verankert sind, ist ihr Schutz nicht selbstverständlich.

Schwerste Menschenrechtsverletzungen können Straftaten darstellen, für die sich einzelne Personen verantworten müssen.
