Last July the Venezuelan people voted dictator Nicolas Maduro out. Today he will seek to be inaugurated as Pres in contravention of the will of the people. The international community cannot recognize him as President, as he openly tramples the rights of the Venezuelan people.

Excellent piece about the challenge the global community faces. Has World War III already begun? The WSJ’s Yaroslav Trofimov on the axis of autocracies challenging the democratic world order. Thank you @yarotrof

Normal political disagreements aren’t a threat to freedom. Attacks on the system are.

An inside look at the life of a political prisoner, or better said of a person who simply wants to speak and live freely under a democratic government.

I survived Putin’s prisons. Many others are left behind.

Thrilled you are home!.
An honour for our family to meet with @POTUS at the Oval Office to personally thank him for the historic prisoner exchange that saved 16 lives from Putin’s Gulag. So many others are still left behind. We will not relent until they are free and reunited with their families too.

The world’s dictators have a playbook to crush dissent. Democracies need new ways to fight back.
