My colleague @davidlega is spot on. Time to throw the JCPOA in the bin where it belongs and support the Iranian people’s desire for freedom from the oppressive regime
RT @davidlega: 🆘SUPPORT THE IRANIAN PEOPLE🆘
▪️ Sanction everyone who voted for the mass executions!
▪️ Suspend the JCPOA!
▪️ Stop legitimising the repression of mandatory veiling!
#EPlenary #IranRevolution2022 @EPPGroup
The @europarl_en will urgently debate tonight the barbaric vote by the Iranian Parliament to execute detained protestors. A true parliament serves to work for the people it ought to represent, not to oppress and butcher them. This is a new low even for the ayatollahs.
The @EU_Commission continues to state that it will appoint for the EU special envoy for #FoRB as soon as possible. Just how soon is soon when millions are suffering for their faith around the world every day? It’s time for action, not excuses
RT @ComeceEu: Pleased to have participated at the @europarl_en in the exchange btw the @EPPGroup Unit on Intercultural/Religious Dialogue & the press on the importance of promoting EU-Churches …
I challenge business & political leaders who still believe in business as usual with the totalitarian #CCP to listen to the tragic testimonies of these ladies, and the terror they, their family & communities are going through.
This is also result of our silence & failed policies

RT @RushanAbbas: Amazing @MiriamMLex at opening of #InternationalUyghurForum in @europarl_en delivered powerful remarks & said “…for decades, we naively thought that through economic engagement, we can influence totalitarianism regimes to change..”
I was honoured to open the International Uyghur Forum at @europarl_en today.
Every decision we take has an impact on the world around us. That’s why if we don’t fight for freedom everywhere, we will not have freedom anywhere.

RT @AgardiAtilla: Engagement in discussion with media:Intercultural and #ReligiousDialogue - Why it matters. Leading @EPPGroup MEPs exchange views today with journalists highlighting @EPPGroup unique role in #Europarl promoting dialogue with churches and faith-based organisations.
RT @benedictrogers: Tonight, in @europarl_en, it was a privilege to launch #TheChinaNexus at an event hosted by my dear friend & courageous #HumanRights champion, @MiriamMLex, with several other MEPs joining
We had a great discussion about how to confront #XiJinping's #CCP repression & aggression
RT @hk_watch: This evening our Chief Executive @benedictrogers, after speaking at @PressClubBXLEU & meeting with diplomats in Brussels, met with Members of the European Parliament including @MiriamMLex and @davidlega, presented his new book #TheChinaNexus & discussed action to help #HongKong
I was delighted to welcome my good friend @benedictrogers to @europarl_en to discuss his latest book #ChinaNexus, Ben’s unwavering fight for human rights in China and elsewhere, and how democracies can work together to #defendfreedom and stand with those oppressed by the #CCP
An absurd and unacceptable move by the PRC to stop @eucopresident’s video. The CCP once again shows its true face - censoring messages of peace while indulging aggressors

Welcomed move, but for all the wrong reasons. Just how exactly does selling a semi-conductor company to the PRC help make our supply chains more resilience and decrease our dependency?

RT @MatasMaldeikis: Rumours of Lithuania's economic collapse after cutting off China were much exaggerated. Today we opened our Trade Office in Taiwan and announced investment into Lithuanian laser technology. We are friends with democracies, not dictators!
🇱🇹❤️🇹🇼 #StandWithTaiwan
RT @VoCommunism: Today, on the Victims of Communism Memorial Day, we remember those lost because of the Chinese Communist Party.
The upholding of Nika Gvaramia’s sentence based on dubious charges cannot be overlooked. That’s why on the initiative of @rjukneviciene we are asking the President of Georgia to pardon Nika Gvaramia
RT @rjukneviciene: Together with 11 colleagues from @europarl_en we just sent a letter to 🇬🇪 President @Zourabichvili_S asking her to issue a presidential decree and pardon @NikaGvaramia.
Democracies don't silence their critics.
