RT by @bueti: Claire Lai accepted Deutsche Welle's 2026 Freedom of Speech Award today in Bonn. Her father, Jimmy Lai, was not free to accept it himself. He has been in solitary confinement in Hong Kong for nearly six years. Earlier this year, a court sentenced the 78-year-old Apple Daily founder to 20 years in prison for building a newspaper that defended democracy. @jodieginsberg, CEO of @pressfreedom, honored him with the laudatory speech. An empty seat at a press freedom ceremony says everything. #FreeJimmyLai #BringHimHome

2000 days behind bars: time is running out for Jimmy Lai

Jimmy Lai, founder of the Apple Daily newspaper, which was forcibly shut down, has been imprisoned in Hong Kong for 2,000 days. His health has deteriorated dangerously as he continues to be subjected to solitary confinement. Reporters Without Borders (RSF) once again urges democratic leaders worldwide to live up to their commitments and secure the release of the British publisher and press freedom defender.

RT by @bueti: History remembers the people who refused to stay silent. Jimmy is one of them.

He denounced Chinese communism, defended the rule of law, and gave Hong Kong a free press, knowing exactly what it would cost him.

"I believe that if I do the right thing, the strength will come." — Jimmy Lai

If you're still lying to yourself and think that #HongKong still enjoys #autonomy under the #OneStateTwoSystems idea, think again.
Autonomy, the #ruleoflaw and #civicrights are gone. Sentencing #JimmyLai to 20 years is ample of proof for that. #freedom is gone. And the ghoulish #CCP did not honor its promises at all.
Don't trust China, China is asshole.

ARTICLE 19 joined @[email protected] + more than 50 orgs in urging President Donald Trump + Congress to take action following the verdict against Jimmy Lai –  a grave escalation of Beijing's crackdown on press freedom and political dissent. #FreeJimmyLai www.article19.org/resources/ho...

Hong Kong: US must take action...

Supporting Palestinian self-determination while backing China’s claim over Taiwan is a fast way to alienate people who were neutral or split, especially after you see what they did to Hong Kong. #FreeJimmyLai

Self-determination for me, not for thee.
