"Video from the hearing was released today and can be viewed below. Wang is first given the floor exactly 36 minutes into the video; China interrupts her at 37:11. Dr. Wang Bingzhang was abducted by Chinese authorities in 2002 from Vietnam, where he was traveling."
"The Unites States delegate (and Britain, France, Germany, Ireland, Hungary, Switzerland and the Czech Republic.) was the first to defend Wang’s statement, saying that “accredited NGOs must be permitted to speak in the council" and that "it is essential that civil society voices be heard here in an atmosphere of open expression."
