The World Liberty Congress strongly condemns the Taliban’s recent arrests of dozens of women in Herat Province for allegedly violating the Taliban’s imposed dress code, as well as the reported use of force against peaceful civilians exercising their fundamental right to protest.
The international community must not remain silent while gender apartheid is enforced, peaceful dissent is crushed, and fundamental freedoms are systematically denied.

BREAKING: Afghans education minister has announced that women are permanently banned from schools.
UN Women has not said a word.

An unspeakable evil. Literally. No words will suffice.
Congrats to Time however for its coverage, putting other media to shame.
30,000 innocent Iranians killed in 2 days - a rate of killing that resembles Babi Yar in Holocaust, says Time:
“The only parallel offered by online databases occurred in the Holocaust. On the outskirts of Kyiv on Sept. 29 and 30, 1941, Nazi death squads executed 33,000 Ukrainian Jews by gunshot in a ravine known as Babyn Yar."

It’s a great honour that the 2025 #MagnitskyAward for Outstanding Opposition Politicians was awarded to my husband Siarhei and me.
I was proud to accept it last night on behalf of all brave Belarusians whose courage and resilience keep our fight for freedom and democracy alive.

The Taliban have now banned books written by women, adding to their daily wave of new restrictions. This is blatant discrimination against women. Where are the UN, Amnesty, ICC? Why the silence in the face of Taliban crimes against Afghan women and girls? #FreeAfghanWomen

Three years ago, Mahsa Amini was murdered by the Iranian authorities. Her name became a symbol of courage for the world.
My heart is with the fearless women of Iran who risk everything against tyranny—and with all brave women who fight for freedom and human rights worldwide.

"We, Afghan women, feel like broken records in this Council. Every session, we repeat the same truths: the escalating, and horrendous violations of our rights. Nothing hidden about the Taliban’s atrocities. And still, their war on women continues with impunity."#HRC60

Thank you @SenatorWong & people of Australia for standing with Afghans in this moment of tragedy. This timely support will bring urgent relief to those who’ve lost loved ones, homes & livelihoods in the earthquake. AfghanAustralian community values Australia’s solidarity.

I am endlessly moved by the women of Belarus. With nothing but their voices, white dresses & flowers, they stood against guns, beatings & prisons. They carried our revolution on their shoulders, with courage stronger than fear. Their bravery is the ❤️ of our fight for freedom.

The anniversary of the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia reminds us that freedom is never given—it must be defended.
We honor the heroes of 1968, including Belarusians who supported the Prague Spring, as we continue our own struggle for freedom and democracy in Belarus.

Prof. @JacquiTrue and Prof. @williammaley1 called for stronger international engagement, warning that silence and selective responses only embolden repression. The conference urged a united and principled global response to human rights abuses. There are signs of more pragmatic engagement, but no broad recognition. The danger is that quiet normalisation erodes leverage without gaining rights.
