#Belarus is the most dangerous country in Europe for journalists. 32 of my excellent colleagues are in jail.Many more have been detained or pushed out of the country. We are facing a media blackout in Belarus. It doesn’t mean we’ve given up. Journalists will continue their work

PFDF strongly condemns yesterday's sentencing of Belarusian opposition leader Siarhei Tsikhanouski, whose courage began a worldwide movement. His voice will not be silenced.
Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya@Tsihanouskaya

My husband, Siarhei Tsikhanouski, is sentenced to 18 years in prison. The dictator publicly takes revenge on his strongest opponents. While hiding the political prisoners in closed trials, he hopes to continue repressions in silence. But the whole world watches. We won't stop. ✊

Remembering journalist #DaphneCaruanaGalizia today, 50 months after her horrific assassination in Malta. 50 long months without justice. But we’re still here. We’re still fighting for #JusticeforDaphne. We’re not going anywhere until justice is fully served.
