AW: Re: [WSIS CS-Plenary] Statement - To be read at WSIS/ITUinformal planning

[Fullsack Jean-Louis]

Dear Tracey
I agree with you. Obviously the freedom of expression issue in Tunisia
should be addressed by the Media Caucus. However at least with a large input
from or in close collaboration with Human Rights Caucus (Meryem Marzouki).
Best regards
Jean-louis Fullsack
