Notícia do dia. A gay couple jailed in Malawi after getting engaged have been pardoned by President Bingu wa Mutharika.
A tal pressão internacional. Aid donors and human rights groups have been putting pressure on his government to respect the rights of minority groups.
The UK government, Malawi's biggest donor, said it was dismayed by the sentencing, and the US labelled it a step backwards for human rights.
Os EUA e o seu bem-aventurado “faz o que eu digo, mas não o que eu faço”:
The White House is pleased to learn of President Bingu wa Mutharika's pardon of Tiwonge Chimbalanga and Steven Monjeza. These individuals were not criminals and their struggle is not unique. We must all recommit ourselves to ending the persecution and criminalization of sexual orientation and gender identity. We hope that President Mutharika's pardon marks the beginning of a new dialogue which reflects the country's history of tolerance and a new day for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights in Malawi and around the globe.
