Geee Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Washington Examiner: President Obama's Nobel Peace Prize isn't giving him cover from charges that he and his foreign policy team have looked the other way on human rights abuses by countries including China, Russia and Vietnam. Now as Obama readies to entertain the president of Vietnam, Truong Tan Sang, next Thursday, critics are urging him to demand that the Socialist nation end its horrible record of government-sanctioned labor and sex trafficking or face U.S. sanctions. "The president has had no voice of substance, just the opposite," said Rep. Chris Smith, the New Jersey Republican who is one of Capitol Hill's human rights leaders. "He has been AWOL like no one else in my 33 years as a member of Congress." The White House said that the president plans to mention human rights when he meets with Vietnamese president, though they offered no details.
