It is the first film I ever made unintentionally and unfortunately in the midst of war in 2020. You can see the story of my dear friend Samira and our joint struggle, pain of war in Karabakh where we went to help civilians in the middle of war. en.feministpeacecollective.com/post/film-behi…

Join us on June 27 at 19:00 (Caucasus time) to learn what Bahruz Samadov’s “crime” really was. If dialogue between Armenians and Azerbaijanis is a crime, If standing against war is a crime— Then yes, we, the “traitors,” will declare our own peace. #FreeBahruz

On 23 June, anti-war and peace activist Bahruz Samadov was sentenced to 15 years in prison. His so-called “crime”? Refusing to participate in the machinery of national hatred and war against Armenians. Refusing to be silent.

1/ Bahruz Samadov has just been sentenced to 15 YEARS in prison. His “crime”? Saying NO to war. Defending peace. Daring to think freely. This is not justice, it’s the fear of a regime that knows its time is running out. #FreeBahruz #SiyasiMəhbuslaraAzadlıq

Bahruz Samadov is facing up to 16 years in prison on false "treason" charges. He’s on hunger strike. The Azerbaijani regime is destroying the lives of its intellectual youth and silencing everyone. EU and others may keep flirting with Baku, but silence has a cost. #freeBahruz

Today Bahruz Samadov stood in court, accused of treason by the AZE regime. Yet he stayed firm in his commitment to peace: “Long live peace and coexistence! Long live the brotherhood of the AZE and ARM nations!” Even as the regime tries to make peace a distant reality. #FreeBahruz

When Bahruz Samadov was brought to court, he said, “Long live peace and coexistence! Long live the brotherhood of the Azerbaijani and Armenian nations!”

9/ This incident should not fade into the background of the news cycle. It is a moment for grieving families, but it must also become a moment for accountability—of both Russia's imperial aggression and Azerbaijan's authoritarian indifference.

8/ While the Azerbaijani state eagerly flexes military and oil wealth, ordinary citizens bear the brunt of its authoritarianism. Closed borders, skyrocketing ticket prices, and now, deadly crashes caused by systemic failures—they all reflect a regime that keeps oppressing people.

1/ The recent tragic crash of an Azerbaijani Airlines Baku-Grozny flight plane in Aktau exposes damning political reality: Continuing brutality of Russia’s imperialist war and the Azerbaijani regime’s continious disregard for its own people. 🧵

8/ The repression we see today isn’t strength—it’s fragility. Aliyev’s paranoia exposes his insecurity, not his power. Every journalist arrested, every activist silenced, reflects his fear of losing control in an unpredictable geopolitical moment.

7/ Assad’s fate compounds this fear. Sanctions, isolation, and eventual collapse remind Aliyev that authoritarian regimes often crumble when their international backers become unreliable. Trump’s return doesn’t guarantee safety; it amplifies the stakes.

1/ Aliyev’s paranoia is reaching new heights. In recent days, a wave of arrests of journalists & activists in Azerbaijan coincides with the fall of decade long dynasty of Assad’s regime—a regime similar to Aliyev's. Let’s talk about how Assad’s fate offers a lesson for him.🧵
