Afgelopen zondag zag het Malieveld en omgeving helemaal rood. Nederland bekent kleur. Nu het demissionair kabinet nog. #RodeLijn

❤️ Samen zijn we met meer. Het was noodzakelijk opnieuw een #RodeLijn te trekken, dit keer samen met 150.000 anderen. Wat overweldigend! @minpresnl.bsky.social stop de #Nederlandse medeplichtigheid aan #Israëls oorlogsmisdaden in #Gaza en trek die rode lijn! #StopStraffeloosheid

Special thanks go to @jmivilledechene.bsky.social and H.E. Geneviève Tuts, the Ambassador of the European Union to Canada, for organizing this roundtable discussion on the increasingly important topic #pressfreedom.

Today, on #WorldPressFreedomDay, I am reminded of why our fight is so urgent. A free press is the cornerstone of every #democracy - but right now, it is under attack not just by censorship and violence, but by something even more insidious: #disinformation. 1/5
Fake news is our biggest enemy, join the fight for press freedom!

Press Freedom is under attack, join our fight!
Journalists are currently facing unprecedented challenges worldwide. Armed conflicts, authoritarian regimes and the fast rise of disinformation form a deadly cocktail that puts extreme pressure on pre...
