Human Rights in Vietnam

​EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

There were no significant changes in the human rights situation in Vietnam during the year.

Significant human rights issues included credible reports of: arbitrary or unlawful killings; torture or cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment and punishment; involuntary or coercive medical or psychological practices; arbitrary arrest or detention; transnational repression against individuals in another country; serious restrictions on freedom of expression and media freedom, including unjustified arrests or prosecutions of journalists and censorship; restrictions of religious freedom; and systematic restrictions on workers’ freedom of association.

The government occasionally took corrective action, including prosecutions against officials who committed human rights abuses, but security authorities and other state officials frequently acted with impunity.
