The common trend? Russia sponsoring and financing a far-right take over exploiting migrants as a political weapon.

Last week @amnesty.org's Deprose Muchena challenged EU and member state counterparts: Show diplomatic leadership to stop violations in DRC, Sudan and across Africa as in Ukraine. Bring all your imagination and engagement for rights across the world. Our asks? 👇

Henry Kissinger, ally of military dictators & genocidal regimes? Supporter of crimes of aggression & military juntas? Committer of war crimes & coup d'états? This is not what global credibility & principled leadership looks like.

Netanyahu halts entry of all goods & supplies to the illegally blocked and occupied Gaza Strip in defiance of countless warnings about the catastrophic humanitarian situation Israel deliberately inflicting conditions of life on Palestinians in Gaza intended to lead to their destruction is genocide

Six months after the Paris Olympics, French authorities are not only doubling down on the discriminatory hijab ban but are attempting to extend it to all sports. French lawmakers must reject this discriminatory bill.

The death penalty is a cruel and inhumane punishment, which is incompatible with the inalienable right to life, fails to act as a deterrent to crime, represents an unacceptable denial of human dignity and integrity, and makes the miscarriages of justice irreversible.

CNN's @jimacosta.bsky.social is out after 18 years as they make "internal changes". He signs off: "It is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant. I have always believed it is the job of the press to hold power to account.. Don't give into the lies. Don't give into the fear. Hold onto the truth."

With the Israeli Knesset bill coming into action, which will ban UNRWA from operating in the occupied Palestinian territory at a time where humanitarian aid is mostly needed, millions of Palestinian lives are in danger.
Graphic with location tag of Gaza. Text reads 'Israel's ban on UNRWA in the Occupied Palestinian Territory is coming into force'. The background image is a derelict building with the writing unrwa on the side.

The @eudiplomacy.bsky.social assessment of human rights progress in #Egypt was always going to be flawed, as there are no criteria on which progress can be measured. The @ec.europa.eu decision is therefore purely political. The commission wanted to release the €1bn & it did so.

Shocking to see #Poland, a strong advocate for international law, blatantly flouting it by granting immunity to an #ICC suspect. States will always have reasons to exempt suspects from arrest, however respect for rule of law means one standard that applies for everyone. Be that Putin or Netanyahu.
