RT by @JanAlbrecht: 🟢 #Georgia’s 2024 parliamentary elections signal the country’s descent into hegemonic authoritarianism.

RT by @JanAlbrecht: ❗️ Iran has executed a German and Iranian critic of the Ayatollah regime. His execution caused an international scandal
The Iranian government has carried out the execution of German citizen and opposition activist Jamshid Sharmahd, who was kidnapped in Dubai in 2020.
Jamshid Sharmahd, who grew up in Hanover, lived in the United States and was a computer programmer. In the United States, he launched a website criticizing the crimes of the Iranian regime and covering human rights violations.
Opposition activist Jamshid Sharmahd was detained by Iranian authorities in August 2020 after he was kidnapped by Iranian regime agents while being transferred to Dubai. He was sentenced to death in February 2023.
Iran has accused Sharmahd of organizing terrorist attacks, including the 2008 bombing of a Shiite mosque in Shiraz that killed 14 people and injured more than 300. Sharmahd himself and his supporters deny the allegations, claiming they are fabricated to undermine his activities and the Tondar movement.
The day before, it became known that Iran's Ayatollah regime executed the opposition activist. The news of Sharmahd's execution sparked a wave of outrage and demands for strict measures against Iran. His daughter Gazelle Sharmahd called for “severe punishment” for the Iranian regime. Chancellor Olaf Scholz called the execution a “scandal” and Annalena Baerbock warned of “serious consequences”. CDU party leader Friedrich Merz called for a sharp downgrade of diplomatic relations with Iran.

RT by @JanAlbrecht: Sorry @JosepBorrellF @eu_eeas This Statement is a joke, it has nothing to do with reality and is surely not helpful for the people of 🇬🇪
Here, 🇪🇺 betrays democracy, rule of law, it’s own credibility.
We cannot recognize those elections. This must have been the first sentence!

RT by @JanAlbrecht: .@MichelleObama: Voters have every right to ask hard questions of any candidate seeking office. But can someone tell me why we are once again holding Kamala to a higher standard than her opponent? We expect her to be intelligent, and articulate, to have a clear set of policies, to never show too much anger… But for Trump, we expect nothing at all

RT by @JanAlbrecht: Orban would not issue this outrageous statement without coordination with GD (Georgian Dream, the ruling party).
This means that there is a plan to steal the elections, even before all votes are counted, based on lies.
A plan to steal elections in a council of europe member state.
