MOSCOW (AP) — Russia's Foreign Ministry has attacked the U.S. human rights record in a report on injustice and violations around the globe.
In the paper published on Wednesday, Moscow criticized President Barack Obama for "legalizing indefinite and extrajudicial custody and the return of court-martials."
In its first-ever report on breaches of human rights abroad, Russia focused on EU nations, Canada and Georgia, but the longest section of the report highlights violations in the U.S.
Moscow laments the ongoing operation of the "notorious" prison in Guantanomo Bay, prying into citizens’ personal lives and judicial errors.
Russia’s Foreign Ministry in the past has reacted angrily to the accusations of human rights breaches that the U.S. State Department has leveled at it in its annual reports.
