#RuleofLaw breakdown in #Poland: Here is #JudgeTuleya standing in front of now unlawfully captured Supreme Court where bogus "Disciplinary Chamber" is busy unlawfully colluding with ruling party to bring sham criminal charges against targeted judges to scare rest into submission
There are over 350 political prisoners in #Belarus. One of them: Maria Kalesnikava, member of the Coordination Council of the democratic opposition. She is in jail since September & today is her birthday. Share this support message for her! #FreeKalesnikava#FreedomForBelarus
Poland’s Constitutional Tribunal has declared that Commissioner for Human Rights @Adbodnar must leave office.
The tribunal is widely seen as being under the influence of the ruling party, while Bodnar has often been a thorn in the side of the government https://t.co/DgQM1r1hbm
Another blow for democracy in #Poland.
The PiS-controlled Constitution Tribunal shamelessly ruled to remove @AdBodnar, independent human rights Ombudsman,from office in max 3 months.
We commend Bodnar’s brave work for citizens' rights & #ruleoflaw.
@EU_Commission must react.
A new court for rights protection? Following the @EUCourtPress judgments re 🇭🇺 @ceu and #LexNGO, @KerstyMcCourt and I explore how to ensure implementation on the ground.

🇷🇺 #Россия: Более ста журналистов и более тысячи протестующих задержаны, российский суд приговорил антикоррупционного активиста Алексея Навального к двум с половиной годам лишения свободы. Президент Владимир Путин должен освободить Навального и всех протестующих немедленно
The ruling brought swift international condemnation. The .@coe Council of Europe, a human-rights body that counts Russia as a member, said it “defies all credibility and contravenes Russia’s international human rights obligations.”https://t.co/0yjUiMPX65
All #OSCE countries have committed to upholding #FreedomofAssembly. ODIHR is concerned about today’s reports of detentions and the use of excessive force in Russia, and calls for its respect in line with #OSCE commitments
Statement of @MedelEurope, condemning the decision of the Polish MoJ (acting as Prosecutor General) to transfer independent prosecutors hundreds of kms away from the places they live.
A letter was also sent to @vonderleyen, @VeraJourova and @dreynders, denouncing the situation.
Judge Igor Tuleya, suspended by a kangaroo court known as the Disciplinary Chamber: EU institutions are a great disappointment. One may think they do not treat Poland as a part of the Union. We have to rely on ourselves.
