As the chair of the Uyghur Friendship Group I have, together with the vice-chairs, written an oped on the aftermath of the UN's Uyghur report. Our message is crystal clear: the EU must take action now!!

RT @euobs: [Opinion] The EU can no longer stand idly by while the Chinese government continues to show a blatant disregard for the most fundamental human rig…
Following my proposal, the @EPPGroup will request an urgency resolution about the #IranProtests to be debated and adopted in the #EPlenary next week. The @europarl_en should send a strong message: We support the Iranians' peaceful efforts in pursuit of human rights and freedom❗️
RT @LegaSve: Linde tycks ha glömt publicera bilden från sitt officiella möte med Irans utrikesminister. Skäms du?
Vågade du kritisera
1️⃣ regimens gränslösa våld mot protestanterna i Iran?
2️⃣ ministerns attack mot det svenska rättsväsendet (efter att iranske Nouri dömts till folkrättsbrott)?
Read the @EPPGroup statement by @gahler_michael and myself about the Iranian authorities’ violence and crackdown against protesters throughout 🇮🇷. #IranProtests 👇🏽 https://davidlega.eu/2022/09/23/we-condemn-the-iranian-authorities-violence-against-protestors-in-iran/
An 🇮🇷 Court has sentenced two LGBTI rights defenders to death. Death penalty is never, under any circumstances, acceptable. The Iranian regime should not decide what to wear or who to love. The Iranian people deserves freedom! #IranProtests
EU-Taiwan Bilateral Investment Agreement. Now!🇪🇺🇹🇼 #StandTogether #StandWithTaiwan
RT @ipacglobal: #BREAKING: Over 30 #IPAC members from Europe call on EU Presidents @vonderleyen @CharlesMichel and Trade Commissioner @VDombrovskis to intensify efforts to establish an EU-Taiwan 🇪🇺🇹🇼 Bilateral Investment Agreement.
RT @ipacglobal: European lawmakers issue joint appeal calling for EU-Taiwan investment deal | Euronews
#IPAC lawmakers argue an investment deal could help strengthen "democratic friendship" and uphold the "rules-based world order."
Last week, #Mahsa_Amini died after being brutally beaten by the moral police over the hijab law. Today, the Iranian President is addressing the #UNGA, while the Iranians are standing up for Mahsa and all the victims of the regime. The 🇮🇷 regime should be held accountable - now!
Fruitful round table discussions with ministers, parliamentarians, and CSOs from over the world. The civil society is vital to protect and support children and education globally. Thanks for hosting this #UNGA #TransformingEducationSummit side event, @IPNEducation!

RT @Childmanifesto: Our co-chair @davidlega speaking at the @TransformingEdu Summit at #UNGA on concrete solutions for disability-inclusive education. Very powerful testimony on the importance to provide a tailor-made approach that takes into account the specific needs of children w/disabilities!

RT @davidlega: “Antisemitism is everywhere: on the streets and in the tweets” said @StateSEAS in her testimony. What’s illegal offline must be illegal online as well. #stopantisemitism

RT @ocgb86: Idag röstade MP av misstag för EU-reglerade löner vid en votering i Europaparlamentet. Skarp lagstiftning.
Vi som vet hur rörigt det är har förståelse ett sådant fel
När KD röstade fel i icke bindande resolution 2020, blev det helsida i Expressen. Olika faller ödets medialotter
