World Press Freedom Day HD
The White House
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release

Remarks by the President On World Press Freedom Day
Roosevelt Room
12:02 P.M. EDT
THE PRESIDENT: Well, as many of you know, Sunday is World Press Freedom Day, a day in which we reaffirm the vital role that a free press plays in democracy and shining a light on the many challenges, cruelties and also hopeful stories that exist in countries all around the world.
Journalists give all of us, as citizens, the chance to know the truth about our countries, ourselves, our governments. That makes us better. It makes us stronger. It gives voice to the voiceless, exposes injustice, and holds leaders like me accountable.
Unfortunately, in too many places around the world, a free press is under attack by governments that want to avoid the truth or mistrust the ability of citizens to make their own decisions. Journalists are harassed, sometimes even killed. Independent outlets are shut down. Dissent is silenced. And freedom of expression is stifled.
And that’s why I really appreciated and valued the opportunity to hear from three journalists who have been incredibly courageous under some very, very difficult circumstances. All three are from countries that severely restrict the freedom of the press. All three have been detained or harassed in the past. All three have sought refuge here in the United States. And we welcome them so that they can continue their important work.
Just very briefly, I want to mention them. We have Fatima Tlisova, who is from Russia. She reported on military operations in the North Caucasus region, as well as disappearances and corruption. She was attacked, kidnapped, tortured herself. Today, she reports for the Voice of America, and most recently has spent time reporting on the Boston trials related to the Boston bombing. So we very much appreciate Fatima being here.
We also have Dieu Cay -- that’s his pen name -- from Vietnam, a blogger who has written on human rights, including religious freedom, is a leading voice for greater press freedom in Vietnam. He spent six years in prison and was just released in October.
And finally, we have Lily Mengesha, who is from Ethiopia. She helped to shine a light on the outrage of child brides. After her advocacy for a free press, she was harassed and detained. Today, she is with the National Endowment for Democracy.
So I heard firsthand I think from all of them the importance of all of us, including the United States government, speaking out on behalf of the value of freedom of the press. As I indicated to them, these are countries in which we are engaged and do a lot of business, and we think that engagement and diplomacy is absolutely critical to the national interest of the United States. But what’s also important is that we speak out on behalf of the values that are enshrined in our Constitution and our Bill of Rights, because we believe those values are not simply American values, that certain core values like being able to express yourself and your conscience without danger is a human right, a universal right, and ultimately makes the world better and stronger when individual conscience and a press that is free is allowed to function.
It’s also a time for us to reflect and honor all those journalists who are languishing in jail as we speak right now, are being harassed, are in danger, and, of course, journalists whose lives were lost. That includes Steven Sotloff and James Foley and Luke Somers; those killed in Paris at Charlie Hebdo. We’ll keep working for the release of journalists who are unjustly imprisoned, including Jason Rezaian of The Washington Post, who is currently being held in Iran.
So, once again, I want to thank the three journalists who are here for sharing with me in very clear and stark terms some of the challenges that folks are facing. I want everybody to understand that this will continue to be a priority for the United States in our foreign policy, not only because it's the right thing to do, but also because ultimately I believe it's in the national interest of the United States.
So, with that, since it's World Press Freedom Day, I figure I'd better take at least one question.
Q Will the charges against the police in Baltimore, sir, help to defuse things there?
THE PRESIDENT: Before I answer your question, when we were discussing why I thought freedom of the press was so important, I actually used the example of Selma, the incredible courage of those marchers across the bridge, and I pointed out that had there not been good reporters like Mr. Bill Plante at that bridge that day, America’s conscience might not have been stirred and we might not have seen the changes that needed to be made. So that's just one example of why press freedom is so important.
Bill, the State’s Attorney had literally just walked to the podium as I was coming in here, so I've not had an opportunity to see the nature of the charges. I didn’t watch the press conference that she engaged in. So let me just say this, building on what I said in the Rose Garden: It is absolutely vital that the truth comes out on what happened to Freddie Gray.
And it is my practice not to comment on the legal processes involved; that would not be appropriate. But I can tell you that justice needs to be served. All the evidence needs to be presented. Those individuals who are charged obviously are also entitled to due process and rule of law. And so I want to make sure that our legal system runs the way it should.
And the Justice Department and our new Attorney General is in communications with Baltimore officials to make sure that any assistance we can provide on the investigation is provided. But what I think the people of Baltimore want more than anything else is the truth. That's what people around the country expect. And to the extent that it's appropriate, this administration will help local officials get to the bottom of exactly what happened.
In the meantime, I'm gratified that we've seen the constructive, thoughtful protests that have been taking place, peaceful but clear calls for accountability -- that those have been managed over the last couple of days in a way that's ultimately positive for Baltimore and positive for the country. And I hope that approach to nonviolent protest and community engagement continues.
And finally, as I’ve said for the last year, we are going to continue to work with the task force that we put together post-Ferguson. I'm actually going to be talking to mayors who are interested in figuring ways to rebuild trust between the community and police, and to focus on some of the issues that were raised by the task force right after this meeting. Our efforts to make sure that we're providing greater opportunity for young people in these communities -- all those things are going to be continuing top priorities for the administration. And we'll probably have some more announcements and news about that in the days and weeks to come.
All right. Thank you very much, everybody.

Statement by the President on World Press Freedom Day
On this World Press Freedom Day, the United States honors the role of a free press in creating sustainable democracies and prosperous societies. We pay special tribute to those journalists who have sacrificed their lives, freedom or personal well-being in pursuit of truth and justice.
Over sixty years after the Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaimed the right of every person “to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers,” that right remains in peril in far too many countries.
While this year has seen some positive developments, like the release of journalists along with hundreds of other political prisoners in Burma, arbitrary arrests and detentions of journalists continue across the globe. As we condemn recent detentions of journalists like Mazen Darwish, a leading proponent of free speech in Syria, and call for their immediate release, we must not forget others like blogger Dieu Cay, whose 2008 arrest coincided with a mass crackdown on citizen journalism in Vietnam, or journalist Dawit Isaak who has been held incommunicado by the Eritrean government for over a decade without formal charge or trial.
Threats and harassment, like that endured by Ecuadorian journalist Cesar Ricaurte and exiled Belarusian democratic activist Natalya Radzina, and indirect censorship, including through restrictions on freedom of movement like those imposed on Cuban blogger Yoani Sanchez, continue to have a chilling effect on freedom of expression and the press. We call on all governments to protect the ability of journalists, bloggers, and dissidents to write and speak freely without retribution and to stop the use of travel bans and other indirect forms of censorship to suppress the exercise of these universal rights.
In some cases, it is not just governments threatening the freedom of the press. It is also criminal gangs, terrorists, or political factions. No matter the cause, when journalists are intimidated, attacked, imprisoned, or disappeared, individuals begin to self-censor, fear replaces truth, and all of our societies suffer. A culture of impunity for such actions must not be allowed to persist in any country.
This year, across the Middle East, North Africa and beyond, the world witnessed not only these perils, but also the promise that a free press holds for fostering innovative, successful, and stable democracies. On this World Press Freedom Day, we call upon all governments to seize that promise by recognizing the vital role of a free press and taking the necessary steps to create societies in which independent journalists can operate freely and without fear.

US President Barack Obama (R) talks with Vietnamese journalist Dieu Cay (L) on World Press Freedom Day at the White House in Washington, May 1, 2015.
AFP
Six months after being deported to the United States following his release from a prison in Vietnam, dissident blogger Nguyen Van Hai, also known by his pen name Dieu Cay, spoke to RFA's Vietnamese Service about meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama about global press freedom. Hai, whose online articles had criticized communist rule and highlighted alleged abuses by the authorities, was arrested in 2008 and sentenced a year later to 30 months in jail on a charge of "tax evasion" but was not freed after completing his term. He was later charged with carrying out propaganda against the state and sentenced in 2012 to 12 years in prison. After being freed on Oct. 21, 2014, he was immediately deported to the United States.
RFA: Your return to Washington this time has tremendous significance. Three years ago, in a speech on Press Freedom Day, President Barack Obama mentioned you by name. Partially due to that, you were released from prison and flew here about six months ago. Can you tell us what you and the president spoke about during this meeting?
Hai: Thanks to the efforts of President Obama and the U.S. government, I was released from prison and was able to come to the U.S. During today’s meeting, the president spoke with three journalists about global press freedom—me, a journalist from Russia and one from Ethiopia. I expressed my sincere gratitude towards the president and the U.S. government for paying attention to my case and helping to free me from prison. I also told him about the situation of press freedom and the freedom of expression in Vietnam, as well as prisoners of conscience. After that, I presented a list of my colleagues who need his help.
RFA: Do you think there is a connection between the president meeting you about global press freedom and the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) recommendation to the State Department to put Vietnam back on the Countries of Particular Concern list?
Hai: The president and the U.S. government pay a great deal of attention to press and religious freedom in Vietnam. About two days ago, I met with Senator Dick Durbin and spoke to him about freedom of the press and expression, as well as the issue of prisoners of conscience. On the same day, the State Department demanded that the government of Vietnam immediately release prisoner of conscience Ta Phong Tan, who is a member of our free journalist club. I don’t know if my meeting with the president was related, but we have seen the results my friends back home and I were hoping for. The efforts of people in Vietnam to help our club have now achieved some results.
RFA: A former prisoner of conscience visiting the White House and speaking with the president is a very special thing. It also comes just ahead of a scheduled visit by Vietnam’s Communist Party chief Nguyen Phu Trong and amid speculation that Obama will visit Vietnam at the end of this year. What is the significance of this?
Hai: I think this is the right time—it’s a very important time for democracy activists as well as journalists in Vietnam. During today’s meeting I asked the president to raise the issue of freedom of the press and expression, and prisoners of conscience, at the scheduled visit by Trong, as well as to urge that Vietnam eradicate articles of the law the leadership is using to restrict the press and expression, because those articles do not comply with international conventions signed by Vietnam and U.S.
RFA: It has been six months since you left a Vietnamese prison and came here, pledging to continue your fight for freedom online. Have you made progress on that goal?
Hai: There are always difficulties, especially for a new organization. We must overcome such difficulties to achieve our goals. We have established the free journalist club overseas, but we are still in the process of building our website. We have a lot of activities that we plan to do to promote freedom of the press and expression in Vietnam, and we are exploring ways to send information to international organizations to protect journalists in Vietnam. We have achieved some results, but we hope to find additional support to finish our job … especially support from the media.

Thảm Họa Đỏ - Bộ Mặt Thật Đảng Cộng Sản Việt Cộng
http://danlambaovn.blogspot.com/2015/01/phim-tai-lieu-tham-hoa-o-bo-mat-that.html
Phim tài liệu: Thảm Họa Đỏ - Bộ mặt thật đảng CSVN
Thảm họa đỏ: Sự trần trụi về đảng cộng sản Việt Nam!
Lực lượng Dân Tộc cứu nguy Tổ Quốc vừa công bố buổi lễ ra mắt DVD Thảm Họa Đỏ qua đó lịch sử đảng csvn được tái hiện lại chân thật với những cột mốc từ trong quá khứ cho đến ngày hôm nay.
Bộ phim Thảm Họa Đỏ đã cho thấy đảng csvn là một đảng phái không có chính danh khi cướp chính quyền từ tay chính phủ Trần Trọng Kim, dành lấy quyền lãnh đạo Quốc gia bằng vũ lực không thông qua cuộc trưng cầu dân ý-bầu cử tự do sau đó dẫn đưa Dân Tộc đến cuộc nội chiến huynh đệ tương tàn được khởi động vào những năm của thập niên 50 và chấm dứt vào ngày 30/4/1975 áp đặt một chủ thuyết ngoại lai có tên gọi là Mác-Lê Nin trên đầu Dân Tộc, thảm họa đó được gọi là Thảm Họa Đỏ!
Những nhân vật được mời phát biểu trong phim đa phần đều là những người Việt Nam nhưng đa số đều sinh lầm thế kỷ khi chào đời tại miền Bắc xhcn, có người là đảng viên kỳ cựu, cũng có người đã từng tham gia vào bộ máy tà quyền mang tên đảng csvn nhưng tựu trung họ đều từ bỏ đảng vì quá chán ngán với cái chế độ ma mị mang tên cộng sản mà mình đã từng phục vụ.
Những phát biểu của họ đã chứng minh cho toàn dân thấy được tính độc tài sắt máu của của cs khi cố tình duy trì chế độ và những dẫn chứng trong phim cũng cho thấy chính đảng csvn là một bọn tội đồ Dân Tộc khi chúng toa rập cùng kẻ thù phương Bắc để âm mưu nhuộm đỏ nước Việt Nam !
Tuy nhiên bộ phim Thảm Họa Đỏ vẫn còn bỏ sót nhiều tội ác của đảng cs đã gây ra cho quê hương, ngoài việc cướp chính quyền, tên tội đồ Dân Tộc HCM và băng đảng đã nghe theo lời của bọn cs quốc tế gây nên chiến dịch cải cách ruộng đất, thảm sát Mậu Thân tại Huế 1968, truy bức giết hại quân-dân-cán-chính của nước VNCH bộ phim đã để sót những di hại sau năm 1975....
Sau khi cưỡng chiếm miền Nam thành công với sự giúp đỡ tận tình của tên đàn anh TC, đảng csvn với các tên lãnh đạo thời kỳ đó là Lê Duẩn-Phạm văn Đồng-Trường Chinh-Đổ Mười-Lê đức Anh-Trần văn Trà-Võ văn Kiệt đã tàn phá không thương tiếc những gì thuộc về tinh hoa Dân Tộc, từ chiến dịch tiêu hủy văn hóa phẩm đồi trụy, phản động đốt và thiêu hủy hết nền văn học nghệ thuật miền Nam Việt Nam nhằm tạo ra một tầng lớp ngu dân ngày nay chúng còn tiến hành chiến dịch đánh Tư sản mại bản-một bản sao của chương trình cải cách ruộng đất năm xưa-nhưng thực tế là cướp sạch công sức của nhiều gia đình phải vất vả dành dụm nhiều thế hệ-chiến dịch đổi tiền với số lượng khống chế đã cào bằng miền Nam Việt Nam và làm cho nhiều người nghèo đi cho bằng dân miền Bắc và làm cho nước Việt Nam tụt hậu so với các quốc gia lân bang hàng trăm năm phát triển.
Chiến dịch Kinh Tế Mới cũng là một tội ác của csvn, thực chất là cướp nhà, cướp đất của người dân miền Nam Việt Nam trong đó không ít gia đình quân-dân-cán-chính phải bỏ mạng nơi rừng thiêng nước độc thay vào đó là một thành phố với những cư dân mới mà dù cố che dấu thế nào cũng lòi cái ngớ ngẩn ra ngoài.
Đảng csvn không những chỉ là thủ phạm gây nên nhiều cái chết của quân-dân-cán-chính nước VNCH, một lực lượng tinh hoa của Dân tộc rất cần thiết để xây dựng lại đất nước sau chiến tranh mà với chính sách hèn hạ đốn mạt của mình chúng đã đày đọa các con người đó trong các địa ngục trần gian mang tên trại cải tạo và nhiều người đã đi mãi không về....
Chưa hết, với tham vọng nhuộm đỏ toàn cỏi Đông Dương, đảng csvn đã xua quân qua nước láng giềng CPC, giải phóng và chiếm đóng tại đó hơn 10 năm trời với mỹ từ Nghĩa vụ quốc tế gây nên cái chết phi lý của hàng trăm ngàn thanh niên đất Việt bị cưỡng bức tham gia vào lực lượng bộ đội, TNXP trong khi cuộc chiến đó không mang danh nghĩa bảo vệ Tổ Quốc, đảng csvn đã bất chấp các công ước của LHQ dẫn tới nước Việt Nam bị bao vây cấm vận tụt hậu và bây giờ đã trở nên hụt hơi khi không theo kịp các cường quốc lân bang.
Sự kiện giàn khoan HD 981 và thái độ hèn hạ cũng như công hàm bán nước 1958 Phạm văn đồng và phần phát biểu của tên cộng sản Hoàng Tùng trong phim đã là câu trả lời rõ ràng về thái độ bạc nhược của đảng csvn hôm nay, chúng đã cam tâm làm thân khuyển mã nhằm đổi lấy sự vinh thân phì gia, trong đầu óc của các đảng viên đảng cs từ xưa cho đến nay chỉ còn biết đến cá nhân mà làm ngơ các mệnh đề Dân Tộc.
Tội ác của đảng csvn không chỉ bao nhiêu đó, theo lời linh mục Nguyễn Hữu Lễ tội ác lớn nhất của đảng csvn là đã làm mất tính lương thiện trong mỗi con người, điều đó cũng đồng nghĩa với việc đảng csvn đã xóa sổ nền tảng Chân-Thiện-Mỹ, một nền móng vững chắc khi xây dựng Quốc gia mà các quốc gia văn minh đều quan tâm và chú trọng thay vào đó là một triết lý sống theo bản năng, thụ hưởng những vật chất tầm thường...
Bỏ qua những lỗi do edit phim, bộ phim Thảm Họa Đỏ là một sự thật trần trụi của đảng csvn, một tập họp các tên lưu manh, điếm đàng, tham quyền cố vị luôn muốn duy trì chế độ độc tài gia đình trị bất chấp rằng Dân Tộc sẽ bị dẫn đưa và lệ thuộc vào tay tên láng giềng 4 Tốt, đây là một bộ phim đáng để người dân Việt Nam có tấm lòng yêu Tổ Quốc tìm hiểu và tự tìm cho mình câu trả lời.
Cuối cùng lời phát biểu của BS. Chu Văn Cương đã nói hết những gì cần phải có cho nước Việt Nam hôm nay tuy nhiên người viết cũng xin phép được bổ sung cho tất cả mọi con dân nước Việt, dù là đảng viên hay hạng thứ dân:
- Cuộc chiến mà nước VNDCCH miền Bắc xâm lăng miền NamVN, giết chết một Quốc gia Cộng Hòa non trẻ đa đảng phái là một sai lầm nghiêm trọng trong lịch sử Việt Nam.
Nếu lịch sử không ghi nhận điều đó, nước Việt Nam hôm nay đã có thể ngẩng cao đầu với các quốc gia khác, sẽ không có cảnh con tố cha, vợ tố chồng, phẩm giá con người Việt Nam sẽ không bị rẻ rúng, sẽ không có những thảm cảnh dân oan, bắt bớ tù đày những tiếng nói đấu tranh như nhà cầm quyền csvn áp dụng hôm nay.
Vì thế cuộc chiến được gọi là Giải phóng miền Nam Việt Nam, thống nhất đất nước, xây dựng xhcn chỉ là một vở kịch tồi của những tên hoang tưởng, hãy mạnh dạn công khai từ bỏ đảng tịch trở về với triết lý cội nguồn của Dân Tộc, với tình quê hương, nghĩa đồng bào, lật đổ chế độ phi nghĩa csvn, để lá cờ vàng đại nghĩa của Dân Tộc phất phới trên Quê Hương Việt Nam.
Khi đó những giá trị hoang đường mà cs đã đầu độc Dân Tộc 70 năm năm nay sẽ không còn đất sống!
Cũng xin cám ơn Lực Lượng Dân Tộc Cứu Nguy Tổ Quốc đã có những hành động cụ thể nhằm đem lại những sự thật lịch sử khách quan cho Dân Tộc Việt Nam, ngăn chặn và làm thất bại mọi âm mưu, ý đồ đen tối của đảng cs cùng đội ngũ tuyên giáo.
Thảm Họa Đỏ với những sự thật không thể chối bỏ là một cú đấm thẳng vào mặt cái được gọi là lịch sử của đảng csvn!

AC Transit is trying to back out of their commitments to us and also go back on some promises made to the City.
Folks,
See below. AC Transit is trying to back out of their commitments to us and also go back on some promises made to the City.
I plan to send the press release below to the media today. Also, the Lawyer's Committee for Civil Rights is looking into legal strategies. City staff and councilperson Abel Guillen are also working to get AC Transit to honor their commitments.
If you have ideas about ways to put pressure on AC Transit, please share them. Would people be interested in going to an ACT Board meeting and speaking out about this?

AC Transit Reneges on Commitments to International Blvd. Small Businesses
--Agency refusing to cough up $6 million to fulfill promises to merchants and other obligations --
Oakland, CA – AC Transit officials are backtracking on commitments made last October to fund a program to provide advice to businesses that experience negative impacts as a result of a planned Bus Rapid Transit project on International Blvd in East Oakland. .
Merchants and residents alike are expressing outrage at this latest move to undercut promises made by the Agency.
The BRT is planned to run 9.7 miles from Downtown Oakland to Downtown San Leandro. All along this stretch a little over 500 parking spaces will be lost; almost all left turns will be prohibited; and from 14th Avenue to 107th Ave. (7.1 miles) on International Blvd the new vehicular traffic will be on two lanes, rather than the actual 4 lanes. According to AC Transit, project cost will be approximately $180 million dollars.
For over two years, merchants and small businesses from Eastlake, San Antonio and Fruitvale have worked with the City and AC Transit to ensure that International Blvd merchants would have access to programs to assist them adjust to the drastically changed configuration. Allen Temple constituents have repeatedly raised concerns about access for riders and pedestrians with mobility issues.
Last October, the AC Transit Board of Directors agreed to fund a $2.5 million technical assistance program to assist businesses’ transition to this new and very different environment. This was in fulfillment of a Master Cooperation Agreement with the City of Oakland, and it matched a $2 million contribution by the City.
On April 8th, Interim City Administrator issued a memo announcing AC Transit’s unilateral withdrawal of $2 million for the Businesses Sustainability Fund. It has subsequently been revealed that the Agency also has no intention of funding an additional $3.9 million worth of BRT-related costs; including ADA curb ramps, median landscaping, and parking improvements. (See attached.)
“This is a classic bait and switch maneuver”, said Andy Nelsen, Deputy Director at East Bay Asian Youth Center, who has been organizing International Blvd merchants around this issue. “AC Transit got City approvals based on the commitments. They City Council and the Mayor need to stand up to these tactics.”
“AC Transit is trying to get out of their financial responsibility and stick the City with the bill”, said Rev Daniel Buford of Allen Temple Baptist Church. “They are scamming the public and not telling the truth about the BRT.”
“When they told us they would help us last year, I felt hope”, said Vicente Soto, owner of V and A Appliances, located on a block where nearly all parking will be removed. “Now I honestly feel betrayed.”

Precedents to Business and Parking Mitigations
Recognizing that this type of projects involving street physical reconfiguration on commercial corridors, cities like Seattle and the Twin Cities (St. Paul-Minneapolis) that have implemented these public transportation systems, have also established successful business mitigations programs ranging from technical assistance, project design configuration, special assistance loans, marketing support, parking and business mitigations that included relocation funds. These business mitigation programs were a result of transit, county, and city agencies collaborating and engaging local businesses which allowed for a comprehensive impact assessment, and to come-up with project solutions.
