Why don't we have a similar list for Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other countries? Russia deserves the criticism, but is not the worst human rights offender. Compared to Saudi Arabia, Russia looks  progressive and democratic.

Why do liberals feel comfortable with such lists for Russia but not others? Even friendly dictatorships like Jordan are oppressive, lack freedom, deny women equal rights, oppress gays and make life difficult for religious minorities. 

Russia is a politically correct target. Why doesn't the media question the lack of a similar list for worse human rights abusers? It seems like racism of low expectations. The media and government (Freeland) expects more of mostly european Russia, but not of Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, etc.
