The Uzbekistan blog! - Preview of a book the UK government would like to ban
By: Craig Murray on: 01.09.2005 [13:21 ] (1797 reads)
Unfortunately I cannot be at a terminal on 1 September. I have already posted my call for sanctions on Uzbek cotton here, and addressed possible criticisms here.
However to contribute to this day of blogging on Uzbekistan, and for one day only – this will be removed tomorrow – I make available Chapter 10 of my book, which I think makes plain why the British government is trying to ban its publication.
I retain full copyright in this which must not be used for commercial purposes.

This Islam karimov is a shrewd character. But Russia and China have successfully ousted the US base away from Uzbekistan.
I wish the Russians and Chinese success in driving out the americans from central asia.

7. The final improvement State quote is that in one case of murder of a prisoner the police involved have been prosecuted. That is an improvement, but again related to the Karimov visit and does not appear to presage a general change of policy. On the latest cases of torture deaths the Uzbeks have given the OSCE an incredible explanation, given the nature of the injuries, that the victims died in a fight between prisoners.
The UK has given its cops the right to murder people in plain sight, no questions asked.
