human rights violations?
I need to write an essay about 2 humans rights violations:
"Describe at least two examples of conflict occurring over human rights issues within the last two years between the leaders of two sovereign nations."
I already started the essay and chose the Guantanamo Bay prison, but I need another one that is fairly recent. I'm too tired to think. I wa thinking about China and their fertitlity laws, but world leaders don't seem to care about that one. I need an issue that world leaders have been vocal about.
Thanks!!

"Bonnie S" and "chelsea" have given good answers.
To elaborate upon Bonnie S -- what about "Honour Killings" by parents of their daughters who have had sex prior to marriage or who refuse to marry the person they have chosen.
Also, What of the imprisonment, or whipping or execution of women who have been raped and have given birth to a child of the rape. The charge against the female is "Adultery", even though she was raped. This happens in countries like Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan etc.
The Child Sex industry, especially the Child Sex-slave trade, is a major human rights issue. Children are either kidnapped, or sold by family and parents, and forced to work in the sex industry. In Cambodia girls (usually Vietnamese) as young as 5 are forced to have oral sex with clients and vaginal sex when they are around 9-10 years old and older. Many South American girls from 9 years and older are trafficked in South America and into the US for all forms of sex. In Indonesia, in the military brothels, girls as young as 6 are forced to have vaginal sex which either kills them or severely damages them physically. (An Asian girl is physically smaller than a European girl and therefore cannot have sex with an adult male until she is around 9-10 without physical damage. A European girl is capable at around 7-8.) Just think of what this does to the child psychologically.
--- A prostitute is a person who has sex for money and receives some, or all of the money giving some to her pimp for protection or to a brothel for overheads (laundry, water, electricity etc). A prostitute may refuse a client if she chooses to do so.
----A Sex-slave is a person who has sex for money, but receives none of the earnings, with it all going to her owners. She can be bought, sold, trafficked or killed at any time. Also, she cannot refuse a client.

Its all about politicals baby, countries usually do whats in their best interest in the USA the main movers are the industrialists that help shape the US policy e.g the war on Iraq- bottom line oil So any move they make against Sudan it will have some benefit for the USA to do so. The politicians quickly dress things up the way they want to. E,g before Russia was bad now it is good because it gives us oil and gas Saddam was good (even though he was gassing the Kurds) but afterwards he became evil because he made a move against Americans interests.

Woman's rights in the middle east. The required wearing of Burkas, not allowed an education, not allowed a male doctor when needing surgery but women were uneducated so who was suppose to care for them, and beating them because they were the property of the husband.

How about the violation of the rights of the fetus.
What women and doctors do to them is worse than any Guantanamo or horror movie for that matter.
