Around 300,000 marched at #BudapestPride, a major win for LGBTI activists. But new laws keep blocking peaceful events & restricting rights, violating EU protections. Leaders must keep fighting & support frontline activists to protect freedoms in Hungary & beyond.

URGENT: We call for the immediate release of Enes Hocaoğulları, LGBTI+ rights defender and Youth Delegate to the Council of Europe, detained yesterday in Turkey.
The prosecutor has requested his pre-trial arrest. A judge’s decision is pending.

Depuis près de deux ans, Blast collabore avec Mohamed El Saife, journaliste à Gaza.
Dans ce long format exceptionnel, il donne la parole à des habitants épuisés, décimés, traumatisés par des mois de bombardements, destructions, déplacements forcés auxquels s’ajoute une famine organisée meurtrière.
Allez voir, diffusez ce reportage @blast-info.fr par Mohamed El Saife, journaliste à Gaza.
ça vous retourne les tripes mais il est si important ce film, témoigner, documenter le génocide, la famine, surtout les mots des palestiniens qu'on ne pourra jamais oublier.

President von der Leyen is trying to sell yesterday’s surrender as the “biggest trade deal ever”.
But this is not a free trade deal. It is a package of concessions that were extorted from Europe by Trump’s threats.
My take: davekeating.substack.com/p/the-eu-has...
Après Budapest en Hongrie, une autre Pride est interdite, cette fois-ci en Roumanie. La Marche des Fiertés d'Oradea est maintenue par les organisateurs malgré l'interdiction.

I had the pleasure of joining my @ceps.eu colleagues at @ilgaeurope.bsky.social’s #Equality Fundraiser last week. More than a very fun afterwork, it was the opportunity to connect and show my organisation’s and personal support to ILGA-Europe invaluable work!
Consider supporting them!

In this year's Budapest Pride, the spirit of Stonewall lives on. Pride is more than a celebration: it's about standing up to oppressors and never giving up on justice and equality.
Proud of my hometown - thank you to the organisers and everyone who refused to back down! Time's up, Viktor!
Echoes. Dark echoes - and quite a few continuities - everywhere.

America is now governed by far-right trolls who have been molded by an extremist online culture that is devoid of humanity or dignity and operates entirely on bizarre, disgusting stunts like this.
Major turnout as Budapest Pride defies Orban’s ban in Hungary
The 30th Pride march in the Hungarian capital took place despite a police ban, with organisers putting the number of attendees at between 180,000 and 200,000.

Tomorrow's #BudapestPride could have been legal and safe. The European Commission had the tools to act, and chose not to. Inaction has consequences. Complicity has a cost.

Le gouvernement français veut imposer la présence du groupuscule d'extrême-droite "Eros" à la pride de Paris. Le Ministère de l'Intérieur aurait promis "50 CRS" pour protéger les fascistes à la pride. L'Inter-LGBT refuse et annonce que la pride ne partira pas si un cortège fasciste est imposé.

European Commissioner for Equality Hadja Lahbib will next week attend Budapest Pride, an LGBTQ+ celebration that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has tried to ban.

Let's then investigate their 'occult' ties to various big corporations, shall we?
There can be no business as usual with a country committing genocide. The EU must SUSPEND the EU-Israel Association Agreement NOW.

I think a lot of Europeans don't realise the confusingly-named national guards are state militaries.
What's happening in California would be like if Brussels "federalized" the Hungarian army and commanded them to occupy Budapest - over PM Orban's objections.
For no reason other than flexing power.
En route vers Gaza, le navire humanitaire du Madleen portait la voix des peuples, face à l’abandon des États.
L’arrestation illégale de la flottille de la liberté & de 6 de nos concitoyens est un mépris flagrant du droit international.
L’équipage mérite tout notre soutien.
Sur le réseau social d’un milliardaire d’extrême droite, Bernard-Henri Lévy reposte un communiqué de l’ambassade d’Israël à Paris assurant que l’équipage de la Madleen est sain et sauf alors que le gouvernement israélien s’apprête semble-t-il à emprisonner ses membres.
Il faut archiver chacune de ces saloperies.
