German journalist Hüseyin Dogru was sanctioned by EU, not for a crime, but for reporting on Germany's violent crackdown on pro-Palestine protests. The Council of Europe's Human Rights Commissioner condemned it. The EU's excuse? His work "serves Russia." pic.x.com/FkKmuGNOxG
I am the first and only journalist sanctioned by the EU for exposing the genocide in Gaza and Germany’s complicity. German pro-Israel media & trade unions pushed a disinformation campaign that led to these sanctions. This is Europe’s assault on free speech. (via Al Jazeera English)
I spoke with UNICORN RIOT about how the EU and Germany use sanctions to silence me and attack free speech. These attacks aren’t only about Palestinian voices — they’re a warning shot to silence all dissent. The EU even admits sanctions target non-illegal behavior.
