John Sifton: “What is the biggest threat to the entity of India? Compassion's work, the Lawyers Collective's work, or Kentucky Fried…”

When U.S. officials speak with Indian officials, they should raise concerns about the FCRA directly.

the relationship, which has improved as just a basic matter of fact over the last few years, will not continue to improve unless Vietnam's Government undertakes serious reforms to address the human rights problems.

I appreciate the subcommittee's interest in the human rights situation in Vietnam and welcome the efforts today to address it.

Vietnam needs major reforms and if they don't make them, Congress should just tell the administration, whatever administration it is, that it doesn't support broader agreements.
