The EU's Deforestation Regulation has already been pushed back by a year, but a vote today in the @Europarl_EN risks delaying the legislation further.
In a new op-ed, @LNBDublin @catarinacv argue that the EU must stand strong in support of regulation that is crucial to protecting the world’s forests: buff.ly/xm7DKgC

1/2) No, @MarosSefcovic: #EUtrade with #Israel's illegal settlements is NOT "overall consistent" with the obligations laid out by the #ICJ
It's not about trade preferences: international law requires a *blanket ban* on trade & business with settlements: hrw.org/news/2024/10/25/inte…
We've heard it from @amnesty, we're hearing it from @hrw. How much evidence will be needed for the allies of Israel to finally take action?
NEW: Israeli authorities are responsible for the ongoing crime of extermination and acts of genocide in Gaza.
They’ve undertaken deliberate actions that have deprived Palestinians of the water they need to survive.

De situatie van de mensenrechten in #Iran is ernstig. Vele burgers, waaronder jongeren en activisten, worden gearresteerd en ter dood veroordeeld alleen omdat zij opkomen voor hun vrijheid. Executies worden vaak gebruikt als middel om angst te verspreiden en kritiek te onderdrukken.
Wij waarderen uw inzet en steun enorm. @catarinacv
#StopExecutionsInIran
Today at the European Parliament.
A call to #StopExecutionsInIran
MEPs demonstrated solidarity with the Iranian people in their quest for freedom and their struggle to stop executions in Iran.
We receive alarming signs from Azerbaijan. The authorities not only prevented Sakharov finalist Dr. Ibadoghlu from travelling to Strasbourg, but threaten with "consequences" if he participates online. I expect @kajakallas to take urgent action to ensure his safety. #FreeGubad

🚨 Avec mes collègues @catarinacv et @MounirSatouri, nous alertons la @EU_Commission sur l'augmentation des infractions massives contre les droits humains au #Cambodge, notamment contre les syndicats.
Nous demandons l'envoi rapide d'une mission d'observation pour constater les abus sur le terrain, dans le secteur textile notamment.
La protection des droits des travailleuses et travailleurs est une priorité pour notre groupe, ici comme ailleurs.

¡Reuniones productivas en la Unión Europea en Bruselas!
Este miércoles, la delegación de Colombia, que incluye representantes del @MintrabajoCol , el @MinEnergiaCo y sindicatos de la minería del carbón, se reunió con las eurodiputadas @MaritMaij y @catarinacv, quienes expresaron un fuerte apoyo a los sindicatos que trabajan por una #TransiciónJusta.
✅ Algunos de los encuentros de esta jornada fueron con el @eu_eeas, representado por el Sr. Tibor Stelbaczky, enviado especial para la Diplomacia Energética; así como con la Dirección General de Asociaciones Internacionales y la Dirección General de Energía de la #UE.
✅ Cada una de estas reuniones fue altamente constructiva y en ellas se evidenció el gran interés de la Unión Europea para fortalecer el apoyo a una transición energética justa en las regiones mineras de carbón de Colombia.
El diálogo social y los derechos de los trabajadores siguen siendo el eje central de esta colaboración.
¡Juntos podemos impulsar un cambio significativo!

FYEG's 2024 Wrapped is in!
We're calling out all the fascists across Europe: just like this year, we'll keep fighting you in 2025 and push for a sustainable, social and inclusive Europe 😘

MEP @catarinacv focus on ensuring that the EU supports persons with disabilities during armed conflicts and war, and ensuring disability-inclusive reports.

Genocidal hate speech has no place in the European Parliament.
Jointly with 35 colleagues, I sent an urgent appeal to @EP_President Metsola to take action and prevent Knesset Member Amit Halevi from speaking at an @ecrgroup event today.

Regulation against deforestation: postponed, but not killed!
The right-wing/far-right alliance has failed.
The negotiations ended, and none of their amendments have been adopted!
In Europe, as everywhere else, the fight goes on.

#Cambodia: EU Parliament condemns repression of human rights defenders & civil society, incl. @MechDara1, @centralcambodia, @CambodiaMother
MEPs urge EU states/institutions to sanction 🇰🇭 officials, leverage #EBA trade benefits for rights progress: europarl.europa.eu/doceo/doc…
Cambodian government cracks down on civil society, targeting activists, labour rights organisations, and environmental groups.
Today, EP called for sanctions against those behind the repression. EU-Cambodia relations must be conditional on improving human rights and freedoms.
Gaza faces devastation, with civilians targeted and starvation weaponized. The ICJ warns of possible genocide, and the ICC calls for arrests, yet the world looks away. We cannot stand for this. The EU must demand accountability and enforce international law.
The ICC took a crucial step today towards holding Netanyahu and Gallant to account for Israel's flagrant violations of human rights.
For international justice to exist, universal application is key. We need to see these warrants enforced by the international community.
Situation in the State of Palestine:
#ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I rejects the State of Israel’s challenges to jurisdiction and issues warrants of arrest for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. Learn more ⤵️ icc-cpi.int/news/situation-s…
