As Deputy Prosecutor at the International Criminal Court, Nazhat Shameem Khan has found herself under US sanctions. She explains to me the reality of what that means, from being unable to access a credit card to health insurance to the impact on her family. Nonetheless, she tells me, she has hope for the future of international law: “Every single member of this court works for humanity, and there can be nothing better than that.”

Carney moving closer to the EU “was all stimulated by [President Trump’s] actions and attitude,” says fmr. Canadian Foreign Minister John Manley. “Trump saying we’re nasty people – one of the things Canadians think of themselves is that we’re kind of nice! This is quite shocking to the Canadian mentality.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he wants to introduce new laws that could strip citizenship from people who “defame” Israeli soldiers or the state.
The move comes after Israeli filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor faced intense backlash over their documentary NAZA.
The film takes its title from an acronym reportedly used by the Israeli intelligence service for expected “collateral casualties”.
It alleges “mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza” was "calculated" by Israeli military personnel, according to the official synopsis.
The Israeli government rejects those accusations.
NAZA recently just received a special jury prize and an unprecedented 25 minute long standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival.
The directors have also faced threats from Israeli ultra-nationalist groups while more than 1,500 Israeli filmmakers have signed a petition supporting them and freedom of expression.

Caiu como uma bomba o alerta da Flávia Oliveira na GloboNews sobre o golpe que Flávio Bolsonaro prepara caso seja eleito.
“O plano de captura do STF, revelando o DNA golpista da família Bolsonaro, foi explicitado. Isso compõe o método de construção de autocracias: a capitulação do Judiciário.”

I don’t know what warped logic drove Putin to blow up a stationary Ukrainian locomotive on the Polish border this morning. What we can say for sure is that this is the kind of random and senseless attack Ukrainians are enduring every day - even on civilian railways. So far Putin has been responsible for the deaths of 1700 staff of Ukrzaliznytsia - Ukrainian Railways. They and their daily passengers are absolutely heroic.
When are we going to give them the air defences they need? Why won’t we unfreeze Putin’s cash and give it to Ukraine? There is more than €140 billion in a Belgian bank account - and about £10 billion in London. Britain could show a lead.
The Ukrainians are going to win - that much was clear from the last three days in their wonderful country. But we will get this dreadful war over much faster if we all get serious and give them what they need and deserve.

Fire Point enables Ukraine to strike back deep into Russia. This incredible defence-technology company is crucial to Ukraine’s ability to defend its sovereignty and its future.
This war will end much faster if the West does the same; give Ukraine the air defences they need and make it clear their future is as an independent country in the West.

Ukraine’s future is in the West as a free independent sovereign country. We need to hear this loud and clear from Western leaders.

A Daniela Mercury simplesmente botou um “dark horse” distribuindo dinheiro no palco do Rock in Rio, numa baita ironia ao filme e ao escândalo envolvendo os Bolsonaros, e ainda mandou um “Viva a democracia”.
