* News Release Issued by the International Secretariat of Amnesty International * 10 May 2002 IOR 41/016/2002 INTERVIEW AVAILABILITY The UN General Assembly Special Session on Children, meeting in New York, is at risk of failing to defend the rights of children themselves because of an obstructionist USA position. After two years of intense lobbying to ensure that the protection of children's human rights are at the forefront of this Special Session, the outcome document could end up backsliding from the achievements of the rights enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child 12 years ago. Vienna Colucci, Amnesty International delegate to the UN General Assembly Special Session on Children, is available for interviews and comments on the proceedings and outcome, on mobile + 1 708 692 8812. **************************************************************** You may repost this message onto other sources provided the main text is not altered in any way and both the header crediting Amnesty International and this footer remain intact.
