@howardlutnick Great Interview! As an American businessman who lived and worked in Kuwait, I share your views on Kuwait and I know @POTUS @realDonaldTrump does also:

[Mark Williams @MarkWilliamsJD]

American resources and precious American blood shed in countries like #Kuwait only to have #Kuwait wrongly put a freeze on American Manager's #Port_Fund USD$500MM currently frozen @Noor_Bank in #Dubai. Time to apply #Magnitsky! @realDonaldTrump @FoxNews @Rueters @Forbes

I had a great time talking with Chamath and David. Check it out.

@realDonaldTrump Welcome Back President Trump.

My condolences to the people of #Kuwait and to his family on the passing of His Highness Sheikh Sabah al Ahmed Al Sabah the Amir of Kuwait.

At #Kuwait’s UPR, Cote d’Ivoire raised concerns about the #trafficking of people & smuggling of #migrants. #CDI wants to see greater #humanrights in Kuwait, the convention on the status of #refugees to be ratified, & the #rights of women, children & migrants protected #UN #UNHRC

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

At Kuwait’s #UPR session, #Croatia recommended that #Kuwait takes further steps to ensure women have #equality before the #law. The case of #MarshaLazareva exemplifies the lack of #legal protection and #humanrights afforded to women in Kuwait #FreeMarsha #WomensRights

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

Human rights #lawyer @A_SmithAnthony of @omniastrategy spoke to @SputnikInt about vexatious prosecutions against the wrongly convicted #MarshaLazareva in #Kuwait, which repeatedly failed to explain routine #humanrights violations at its #UPR last month #UN https://t.co/Wcgy4JqKJx

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

On 20 Jan #MarshaLazareva was given 7 yrs hard labour bringing her total to 22 yrs #Kuwait has routinely violated Marsha's #humanrights throughout her case. #FreeMarsha

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

Speaking at the #Christian Persecution Event in Washington DC, Louis Freeh highlighted that in the case of Marsha Lazareva, there is no evidence of criminality. Despite this, Marsha faces a sentence of 22 years hard labour #StandUpforHumanRights #FreeMarsha

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

Despite the #humanrights violations #MarshaLazareva has suffered, she still cares deeply about supporting women who have also been victims of #injustice. Whilst she was detained in prison, she helped other women gain access to resources to support their own #fightforjustice

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

At Kuwait's #UPR, #Denmark expressed concern about the continued use of the #deathpenalty in #Kuwait. Kuwait has failed to address issues including arbitrary arrests, #detention and gender-based #violence and must do more to strengthen #humanrights in the country. #FreeMarsha

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

#Ecuador recommended that #Kuwait strengthen investigations of #trafficking cases, esp. those who have been trafficked for sexual #exploitation & forced labour, and, strengthen cooperation with #humanrights mechanisms #UPR #UnitedNations @UN_HRC #humanrightsdefenders

[Mark Williams @MarkWilliamsJD]

#Kuwait has demonstrated a total lack of due process in the case of @MarshaLazareva allowing certain corrupt individuals and government officials to hijack #Kuwait's judicial system for their own commercial gain.

Experts from @amnestyusa, @indefchristians, & @USCIRF discussed religious #persecution in the #MiddleEast, inc. the case of #MarshaLazareva & her 5yr old son, Yvan, who have been detained in #Kuwait for 2 years. #IDC #freemarsha #amnesty https://t.co/hISleBVJOu

[Arbitrary Detention @arbitrary_deten]

Kuwait’s anti-corruption authority is still seeking information about alleged #bribes involving powerful Kuwaiti officials in an #Airbus scandal, following a pattern of #corruption in the country https://t.co/gdNr90cLaG #Corrupt #FreeMarsha #ArbitraryDetention

.@Tcbooth spoke after #MarshaLazareva was sentenced to an additional 7yrs, taking her total sentence to 22yrs hard labour. #Kuwait has stopped at nothing to achieve a conviction in the case of Marsha #Corruption #FreeMarsha
