In his inaugural speech Carter stated that "our commitment to human rights must be absolute." He singled out the [[Soviet Union]] as a violator of human rights and strongly condemned the country for arresting its citizens for political protests. However, he was criticized for not doing enough to promote his proclaimed human rights foreign policy stance in his administration, such as continuing to support [[Indonesia]]  even while it was implicated in the commission of acts of genocide in the occupation of [[East Timor]].
