UN rights chief warns world risks 'dystopian future'

UN rights chief Volker Turk warns that the world needs to change direction if it is to avoid a future filled with military escalation, repression, disinformation, deepening inequality and rampant climate change.

Opening a session of the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, Volker Turk stresses that "we are at a fork in the road" and heading towards "a dystopian future."
