2/3 Exactly one month ago today, in my meeting with Chief Advisor Yunus, I emphasized the European Union's unequivocal opposition to the death penalty in all cases, and expressed my wish to Bangladesh join the long list of countries that abolished this practice.

The EU's Deforestation Regulation has already been pushed back by a year, but a vote today in the @Europarl_EN risks delaying the legislation further. In a new op-ed, @LNBDublin @catarinacv argue that the EU must stand strong in support of regulation that is crucial to

1/2) No, @MarosSefcovic: #EUtrade with #Israel's illegal settlements is NOT "overall consistent" with the obligations laid out by the #ICJ It's not about trade preferences: international law requires a *blanket ban* on trade & business with settlements: https://t.co/QImuKQKJWA

We've heard it from @amnesty, we're hearing it from @hrw. How much evidence will be needed for the allies of Israel to finally take action?

De situatie van de mensenrechten in #Iran is ernstig. Vele burgers, waaronder jongeren en activisten, worden gearresteerd en ter dood veroordeeld alleen omdat zij opkomen voor hun vrijheid. Executies worden vaak gebruikt als middel om angst te verspreiden en kritiek te

We receive alarming signs from Azerbaijan. The authorities not only prevented Sakharov finalist Dr. Ibadoghlu from travelling to Strasbourg, but threaten with "consequences" if he participates online. I expect @kajakallas to take urgent action to ensure his safety. #FreeGubad

Today at the European Parliament. A call to #StopExecutionsInIran MEPs demonstrated solidarity with the Iranian people in their quest for freedom and their struggle to stop executions in Iran.

🚨 Avec mes collègues @catarinacv et @MounirSatouri, nous alertons la @EU_Commission sur l'augmentation des infractions massives contre les droits humains au #Cambodge, notamment contre les syndicats. Nous demandons l'envoi rapide d'une mission d'observation pour constater les

15 eurodiputats hem enviat una carta al president de la @FIFAWorldCup, Gianni Infantino, mostrant la nostra preocupació pel procés de selecció del Mundial #FIFA2034 a l'Aràbia Saudita i l'estratègia de drets humans per al Mundial #FIFA2030 al Marroc, Portugal i Espanya.

@EP_HumanRights will host an event on #HumanRightsDefenders and how the #EU can further protect their important work with @MounirSatouri @kajakallas @volker_turk and @nicustefanuta 🤝 Watch live on 9/12 @ 3pm 🔗 https://t.co/XuNfWfy5wE @UN_HRC @EP_ForeignAff @ProtectHRD_EU

¡Reuniones productivas en la Unión Europea en Bruselas! Este miércoles, la delegación de Colombia, que incluye representantes del @MintrabajoCol , el @MinEnergiaCo y sindicatos de la minería del carbón, se reunió con las eurodiputadas @MaritMaij y @catarinacv, quienes

FYEG's 2024 Wrapped is in! We're calling out all the fascists across Europe: just like this year, we'll keep fighting you in 2025 and push for a sustainable, social and inclusive Europe 😘

@MarcoTarquinio @eu_eeas @EP_HumanRights MEP @catarinacv focus on ensuring that the EU supports persons with disabilities during armed conflicts and war, and ensuring disability-inclusive reports.

Genocidal hate speech has no place in the European Parliament. Jointly with 35 colleagues, I sent an urgent appeal to @EP_President Metsola to take action and prevent Knesset Member Amit Halevi from speaking at an @ecrgroup event today. https://t.co/YzD3pyyMRD

Regulation against deforestation: postponed, but not killed! The right-wing/far-right alliance has failed. The negotiations ended, and none of their amendments have been adopted! In Europe, as everywhere else, the fight goes on.

#Cambodia: EU Parliament condemns repression of human rights defenders & civil society, incl. @MechDara1, @centralcambodia, @CambodiaMother MEPs urge EU states/institutions to sanction 🇰🇭 officials, leverage #EBA trade benefits for rights progress: https://t.co/r7D2Ry2yH5

Cambodian government cracks down on civil society, targeting activists, labour rights organisations, and environmental groups. Today, EP called for sanctions against those behind the repression. EU-Cambodia relations must be conditional on improving human rights and freedoms.

Gaza faces devastation, with civilians targeted and starvation weaponized. The ICJ warns of possible genocide, and the ICC calls for arrests, yet the world looks away. We cannot stand for this. The EU must demand accountability and enforce international law.

Double standards #ICC

The ICC took a crucial step today towards holding Netanyahu and Gallant to account for Israel's flagrant violations of human rights. For international justice to exist, universal application is key. We need to see these warrants enforced by the international community.
