The new Amnesty reports on the protests in Islamic Iran once again reveal massive violence, internet shutdowns and complete impunity.
EU, German government: where are your actions? Where is the classification of the IRGC? where is genuine prosecution for crimes against humanity? Stand up for your universal ethical values.
A free Iran would also be an economic gain for Europe.

The European Parliament condemns Iran’s brutal repression of protesters. This is welcome, but still not enough: the IRGC remains off the EU terror list. Real consequences are overdue — for the safety of people in Iran and across Europe.

EU Parliament freezes US trade deal ratification after Trump's tariff threats over Greenland
By delaying ratification, European lawmakers signal their discontent as the bloc debates possible responses, including retaliatory tariffs, should Washington follow through on its warnings.

Joint Letter to COM President VdL | Alexandra Geese | 16 comments
Today, together with Veronika Cifrová Ostrihoňová (Renew), I have initiated a cross-party letter signed by 54 Members of the European Parliament from EPP, S&D, Renew, Greens/EFA, and The Left, addressed to Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
📨We are calling on the European Commission to take urgent action and build European social media platforms following the recent Grok scandal—where platform X was flooded with disturbing AI-generated images, including child sexual abuse material. Europeans deserve safer digital spaces and real alternatives to US-based platforms.
👉 We urge the Commission to:
- Invest in European tech initiatives;
- Support the development of user-focused, European-owned networks;
- Guarantee robust data portability rights for all users.
📢 As Europe faces growing pressure from foreign interests and relies heavily on external tech infrastructure, decisive leadership is needed to protect our digital sovereignty—and our citizens.
🤝 Thank you to my colleagues who co-signed this letter (see in comments).
🤝 Thank you to the Future of Technology Institute (FoTI) their support and expertise throughout this initiative. | 16 comments on LinkedIn
