His bank accounts were frozen. He is allowed 560 euros per month of his own money, though the bank will sometimes refuse even that. His crime? Reporting on Israel's genocide in Gaza.
Huseyin Dogru was born in Germany. Raised there. He is a German citizen. But Germany and the EU sanctioned him anyway.
To avoid giving him a trial, they listed him as Turkish in the official documents. EU citizens get a hearing, a court, the right to defend themselves. Non-EU citizens don't. So they erased his German citizenship on paper.
No trial. No conviction. No charge. 27 foreign ministers made the decision. No court oversight.
The EU itself admits sanctions target legal behavior: journalism they want to suppress.
He can't leave the country. Can't pay rent. Can't pay lawyers. Anyone who sends him money or food faces up to 5 years in prison for "circumventing sanctions."
A new German law extends sanctions to his family. Support to his wife, 7-year-old, or newborn twins can now be prosecuted.
His media outlet RED had half a billion views in 9 months covering Gaza and police repression in Berlin. That's what got him sanctioned. The publication was forced to close in May.
The 560 euros they allow him is now being cut because he's "paying invoices that are not considered basic needs."

@dosenkesmas Yaudah, kita ga usah beli produk yang ga ada sertifikat halalnya. Kalau kita massive menyerukan ini, hal ini malah bikin produk AS rugi sendiri
@tanyarlfes Kalau kataku si porotin aja. Tapi jangan ngarep sampe nikah sama dia. Tapi kalaupun nikah ya ati-ati aja, dia ga bakal berubah. Jangan terlalu pake hati.
@sofresh_sobleam I don't think so. Americans and the west are still sucking on them so much. Releasing all of them uncensored won't make people finally raise and take action.
