🔴 LIVE NOW - last-minute pre-session #EPlenary briefing with EP spokespeople
🚨Important update ahead of the #EPlenary urgent debate on Hong Kong Wednesday 16/09
Friday's sentencing of Chow Hang-tung, Lee Cheuk-yan & Albert Ho Chun-yan - activists who organized Tiananmen vigils in Hong Kong - is an insult to the victims’ memory & an affront to history.
🚨Important update ahead of the #Eplenary urgent debate on Zambia Wednesday 16/09
The Zambian authorities' decision to cancel the passports of critical voices effectively strips these individuals of their legal & social identity & traps them in a state of de facto statelessness.
