Venezuela's authoritarian turn and the repression of its Left

2 mois 4 semaines ago

Since Venezuela's disputed 2024 elections, Nicolás Maduro's government has escalated its authoritarian turn. More than 2,000 people were detained in the days following the vote, and targeted persecution has widened to include journalists, trade unionists, academics, and human rights defenders. Human rights activist Marta Lía Grajales was disappeared for two days after denouncing the brutal beating of mothers demanding freedom for their imprisoned children. María Alejandra Díaz, a Chavista lawyer and former Constituent Assembly member, was stripped of her license and harassed after calling for transparency in the vote count. These cases illustrate a broader strategy of intimidation and criminalization.

This tragic event triggered a political protest on an unprecedented scale.

Dear Sisters and Brothers,

The Russian Federation continues its brutal, full-scale war on Ukraine. Every day, Russia launches missiles and drones at Ukrainian cities, destroying workplaces, homes, and entire communities, while imposing its criminal regime on the temporarily occupied territories.

Oil Speaks Loudest: Environmental backsliding and the limits of Brazil's energy transition

3 mois ago

“The recent decision by Ibama (the Brazilian Institute of the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources) to grant the state-controlled oil company, Petrobras, an environmental licence for exploratory drilling along the Equatorial Margin, near the mouth of the Amazon River, represents a huge step backwards for the country's environmental and energy policy. It shows that the logic of fossil fuel-based development continues to dominate within the Brazilian state, something that we urgently need to overcome.”

The United States Prepares for War on Venezuela

3 mois ago

The United States is preparing for war against Venezuela. While President Donald Trump has asserted that the country's goal is to stop shipments of Venezuelan drugs to the United States, in private conversations U.S. officials have made it clear that Secretary of State Marco Rubio plans to remove Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. This forms part of Trump's goal of reasserting U.S. domination in Latin America such as it exercised in the nineteenth century by gunboats and in the twentieth century by installing friendly governments.

Sindelagskontrolleret statsborgerskab

3 mois ago
For første gang siden regeringen gav Indfødsretsudvalget beføjelse til at indkalde personer, der har ansøgt om dansk statsborgerskab, til en samtale om deres værdier, er en person nu blevet fjernet fra det lovforslag, som ellers skulle have givet dem et dansk pas og stemmeret til folketingsvalg. Dette markerer endnu en undergravning af elementære rettigheder for etniske minoriteter i Danmark.
