For 8 days people in #Iran are protesting because daily life has become impossible.

Protests & students strikes have continued across more than 78 cities.

Despite intimidation, violence & death! people keep showing up. It's not about a moment. It's about a breaking point.

#Venezuela: Maduro weint hier niemand eine Träne nach.

Aber irgendwer muss diesen Wahnsinn aus dem Weißen Haus stoppen.

Das kann nur ein starkes #Europa leisten, als Magnet für alle, die die internationale Ordnung erhalten wollen.

Yes, a democratic transition in Venezuela is urgently needed.

BUT: Violent air strikes to enforce regime change destroy a rules based world order. They do not offer a lasting path to peace or democracy. But bring more violence.

The EU has to clearly react and stand up to defend international law.

Autocratic regimes are cooperating to increase their repression across borders. So we need to cooperate to #StopTransnationalRepression in Europe.

2026 begins in #Iran with an open question: How long can the Islamic Regime govern against its own people?

Since 5 days, protests return to the streets. Traders close their shops. Students gather on campuses. Because prizes are rising and so is repression.

Laws should be made to protect people. But some autocratic regimes weaponise them to silent dissent. Sometimes in more obvious ways, sometimes through loopholes.

That’s why we have to #StopTransnationalRepression. Follow me for more info on how to do that.

The number of repressive regimes is growing – and so is the number of people seeking refuge from political persecution in Europe. Yet even here, many are not safe because the threats don’t stop at the border.

Transnational Repression is a global phenomenon. Authoritarian governments continue to target critics – and even ordinary citizens – across borders. Even in Europe, they are not safe.

#Iran tightens marriage law, gutting women’s last legal safeguard while blocking protection from domestic violence.

This is not reform, but show of power. In times of crisis Iranian Regime disciplines society through women.

There is a #ceasefire in #Gaza on paper. But for #Palestinians, little has changed. Meanwhile, violence by #Israel i military & settlers is escalating in the #WestBank — with complete impunity.

The actions of the Israeli government require consequences, not just criticism.

In #Iran, mourning is a crime.

Human rights defenders, including Nobel laureate #NargesMohammadi, were arrested at a memorial for the late lawyer #KhosrowAlikordi.

Iranian regime is so afraid of the truth, that it criminalises grief. 1/5
