BRI is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Ellicott City, Maryland, United States that conducts research and advocacy focusing on religious freedom.
Last week, the FBI strengthened partnerships across Southeast Asia, meeting with law enforcement leaders to expand cooperation against transnational crime and accelerate joint operations targeting global scam centers.
Today has marked three years since Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu was unjustly detained for advocating for human rights, education, and democracy. Azerbaijan must lift all restrictions on his release. Rep. Chris Smith is his #DefendingFreedoms advocate.
We will fight tooth and nail for the persecuted in Nigeria, where Christians are being rounded up just for wearing crosses around their necks.
My heartfelt thanks to @NICKIMINAJ for keeping this in the spotlight.

On June 4, the US-based Burma Research Institute (BRI) posted a statement to President Trump claiming that the Myanmar military attacked the area in Kayah State and killed a pastor.

In reality, the deceased was not a pastor but a KNDF terrorist. Real pastors don’t carry weapons or wear military uniforms.
-----
The military conducted a counter-terrorism operation targeting a #KNDF gathering. Only after he was killed did they label him a “pastor.” BRI should be ashamed for spreading such fake news and propaganda.
-----
The man was a terrorist who extorted money from villagers, robbed people, and committed murders.
Is Min Aung Hlaing handing over Myanmar territory to China in exchange for their backing of his illegitimate regime? 🤔

#Myanmar state media announcing news of @MyanmarSC Aung San Suu Kyi being moved to house arrest as part of amnesties linked to Buddha’s birthday
This comes after ousted President Win Myint was freed during Thingyan in Apr
.@Benedict Rogers, Senior Director at @FortifyRights, said the reduction of Aung San Suu Kyi’s sentence in instalments showed the junta has no intention of releasing her, and only wants to give the false impression of positive change in the country.
