NEW!!! Ahead of COP29 in Nov, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Ranking Member chair Senator Ben Cardin urges Azerbaijan to "demonstrate its commitment to upholding human rights" by releasing those unjustly imprisoned by the government 'without delay'

Senator Cardin: “Hosting a major international conference like COP29 should come with responsibilities and expectations that host countries allow frank discussion of information and issues, which requires recognizing freedoms of speech and assembly. Azerbaijan has not done so."

Happy birthday to Gubad Ibadoghlu! Unfortunately, he can't leave #Azerbaijan to see his family as the politically-motivated criminal case against him has been indefinitely suspended. We call for his release and the release of all political prisoners in #Azerbaijan ahead of #COP29

Happy Birthday Dad Happy Birthday Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu

Happy birthday, father! Today is Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu’s 53rd birthday. Although he’s no longer in prison, he’s still in house arrest, spending his second birthday away from his family. I miss you and I hope this will be the last time we are separated in your birthday, dad.

Today, we celebrate the birthday of our dear friend and colleague Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu—the second birthday Gubad spends detained in Azerbaijan, separated from his family, deprived of adequate medical care, and facing spurious charges. Happy birthday, Gubad! #FreeGubad

Dear dad, happy birthday! Hoping to celebrate your next birthday in botanical garden in Lund! We will be together very soon! #FreeGubad

Today is Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu's birthday. World Movement stands in solidarity with him. #Azerbaijan’s courts have frozen his case. He is still awaiting trial and is unable to seek vital medical care while in detention. We call for his complete and unequivocal #freedom! #FreeGubad

"Dr. Gubad Ibadoglu—an internationally respected scholar and political activist—is spending his 53rd birthday today under house arrest, following 274 days in detention for exposing corruption in Azerbaijan. I once again call for authorities to #FreeGubad." -Chair Senator Ben Cardin

Happy Birthday to my dear friend Gubad Ibadoghlu. May your freedom come before your next birthday. m.youtube.com/shorts/BBR5tCf…

Gubad Ibadoghlu is a respected economist & activist who spent 274 days in jail for exposing corruption in Azerbaijan. Yesterday, he spent his birthday under house arrest. This is a sham case by an Aliyev regime that's crushed dissent at every turn. He must be freed. #FreeGubad

The Aliyev regime is destroying Azerbaijan and the region. Azerbaijan needs valuable people like Gubad Ibadoghlu, not bandits like Aliyev

As Aliyev plans to host COP in Baku, more and more Azerbaijani civil society and media are being locked up. This week we remember Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu as he celebrates his birthday under house arrest. Everyone going to COP has a chance to raise these cases.
