Freedom House has released its annual list of the world's most repressive regimes at the United Nations Commission on Human Rights. Six are members of the UN body, charged with monitoring and condemning human rights violations. The report includes detailed summations of the human rights situations in Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Zimbabwe. Significantly, six of the eighteen most repressive governments - those of China, Cuba, Eritrea, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Zimbabwe - are members of the Commission on Human Rights (CHR), representing nearly 11 percent of the 53-member body.
