Despite police intimidation and last-minute venue changes, Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, delivered a historic speech in Berlin, at an event organised by DiEM25, Jewish Voice for a Just Peace in the Middle East, Eye4palestine and the Gaza Committee Berlin.
After the original venue was pressured into canceling the event, Junge Welt stepped in at the last minute to ensure this critical discussion could take place. But those who sought to silence it failed. Over 2,700 people tuned in live throughout the 8 hours of proceedings as Albanese exposed the brutal reality: the genocide in Gaza is undeniable, Germany is complicit, and free speech and international law are under attack.
This is a must-watch for anyone who believes in justice and refuses to be silenced.
Moderated by Wieland Hoban from Jewish Voice for Peace in the Middle East.
