BREAKING NEWS: #ICC issues #Ukraine investigation arrest warrants. See our comment below.👇

[Darian Swig @Darianswig]

This is a an important day for the many victims of crimes committed by Russian forces in Ukraine - and it’s a huge day for international justice. @hrw @ICC @Article3org @volker_turk #HumanRights75

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

BREAKING: International Criminal Court issues arrest warrants against Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin & Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova.

The ICC has made Putin a wanted man and taken its 1st step to end the impunity that has emboldened perpetrators in Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Elegant yet unsparing statement from @KenRoth on @Kennedy_School reversal denying fellowship. “Full transparency is key to ensuring that such influence is not exerted in other cases”. #academicfreedom @UNHumanRights @volker_turk @hrw @CarrCenter @hrcberkeley

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

My statement in response to the decision by Harvard Kennedy School Dean Douglas Elmendorf to reverse his decision to block a fellowship for me proposed by the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy.

[Darian Swig @Darianswig]

via @NYTimes ⁦@Kennedy_School⁩ reverses bad decision denying ⁦@KenRoth⁩ fellowship at ⁦@CarrCenter⁩. It’s the right step, but the Dean should never have exercised such poor judgment in the first place, threatening academic freedom. https://t.co/mdVg6eZiWi

[Darian Swig @Darianswig]

.@ACLU Thank you @AnthonyACLU for joining the uproar over Harvard’s @Kennedy_School egregious decision to deny @KenRoth a @CarrCenter Fellowship. Shame on Harvard. @HumanityUnited @hrcberkeley #StandUp4HumanRights #ProtectAcademicFreedom

[ACLU @ACLU]

Harvard's refusal to approve Kenneth Roth's fellowship is troubling from both a human rights and academic freedom standpoint.

Scholars should not be judged on whether they please powerful political interests. https://t.co/GCvTATsf6P

[Darian Swig @Darianswig]

I am with you on feeling dismayed over Harvard @Kennedy_School decision to deny fellowship to Ken Roth. The school owes civil society, who collectively works tirelessly each day to advance freedom of speech, an explanation.

[PEN America @PENamerica]

🧵 PEN America expressed dismay today over the Harvard @Kennedy_School of Government’s decision to deny a planned fellowship for former @hrw Executive Director Ken Roth, reportedly due to Roth’s criticisms of Israel’s human rights record. https://t.co/P4IExzJzSy

[Darian Swig @Darianswig]

.@hrw Absolutely absurd. Shame on @Kennedy_School for bowing to donor influence rather than standing up for freedom of speech + thought. @KenRoth is one of the architects of the modern human rights movement; his views should be shared + debated @CarrCenter - not suppressed.

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

So much for academic freedom at Harvard's @Kennedy_School: Dean Douglas Elmendorf was so fearful of @HRW's reporting on Israel (applying the same standards as HRW does everywhere else) that he vetoed a fellowship that the Kennedy @CarrCenter offered me. https://t.co/ZFL42AV3lj

[Darian Swig @Darianswig]

@CarrCenter I’m stunned by @Kennedy_School decision to deny Ken Roth a @CarrCenter Fellowship after leading Human Rights Watch @HRW for 30 years. Roth is one of the most important #humanrights thought-leaders of this era. His knowledge should be shared, debated - not censored! Very troubling
