Laos: government's falure to reform and address serious human rights issues call for EU action.

Government authorities routinely violate many of the civil liberties incorporated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. These include the rights to freedom of expression, association, and peaceful assembly. Religious freedom, guaranteed in the Lao constitution, is severely restricted by draconian regulations. There is no means of appeal against violations of civil rights in Laos.
