BREAKING: The court in Trapani 🇮🇹 dropped the charges against iuventa-crew and other civilian organizations! They were accused of “facilitating irregular entry” of migrants into Italy and faced up to 20 years in prison - for saving lives at sea.👉 ecchr.eu/en/case/sea-re…

While the decision is a relief, one has to acknowledge the devastating impact of the case on search and rescue operations in the Mediterranean. It was the prelude to a massive wave of criminalization and repression in Europe. At the same time, people on the move were left to die.

Hoy ha fallecido el entrenador Menotti. Una de sus últimas reflexiones: "Ha sido tanta la desculturización que ha sufrido Argentina que cualquiera puede ser presidente. Milei es un espanto, un mamarracho impresentable y una falta de respeto a la política. Nunca vi nada semejante"

Hoy falleció Luis Menotti, el entrenador de la selección argentina en 1978 que ganó el mundial durante la dictadura de Videla que usó como propaganda. Poca gente sabe que Menotti refugió durante un mes en su casa a una joven buscada por la Juna Militar a la que ayudó a exiliarse.

„Beim rechten Fußball wird viel von Opfern und Arbeit geredet. Er wirft den Blick auf das Resultat,degradiert die Spieler zu Söldnern des Punktgewinns.“ Der linke Fußball“feiert die Intelligenz, er schaut auf die Mittel, mit denen das Ziel erreicht wird,er fördert die Fantasie.“

Die bevorstehende Freilassung von Julian #Assange ist das lange überfällige Ende einer bitteren Geschichte. Ein guter Moment für die Pressefreiheit – für den Julian Assange mit vielen Jahren Freiheitsentzug zahlen musste.

"Getrieben von Rechtsextremen zeichnen sich die Vorschläge in der aktuellen Migrationsdebatte dadurch aus, dass sie ungeeignet sind, Verbrechen wie den Anschlag in #Solingen zu verhindern, aber den Rechtsstaat beschädigen", sagt Wolfgang Kaleck.

In times of wars and other crisis we need to maintain the right to hope and the right to dream - and we need individuals and collectives such as the awardees of Right Livelihood 2024 who stand for these rights. Congratulations to all of them! And to the RLF team for their choice!

We ECCHR are honored to work with Forensic Architecture eyal weizman in our platform Investigative Commons in Berlin - and moreover in supporting the Herero and Nama in their struggle for reparations for the German Genocide 1904-1908!

Listen to this talk between eyal weizman and Wolfgang Kaleck. They discuss the advantages of presenting evidence in cultural fora, asking how Forensic Architecture’s approaches and ECCHR’s legal work can synthesize different methodological approaches. 👉loa.ecchr.eu/podcasts/foren…

Great legal success in somehow dark days. Congratulations to our friends from CCR and their Iraqi clients for their persistance. Justice will come - US double standards should not last forever, systematic US torture in Abu Ghraib not be forgotten.
