Call for actions in solidarity with Ukrainian pacifist Ruslan Kotsaba

#Ukrainian conscientious objector and journalist #RuslanKotsaba will be on trial again on September 20th. Support #Kotsaba with your actions ahead of his trial!

Kotsaba, president of the #Ukrainian #Pacifist Movement, is accused of treason and obstructing #military operations for his expressions calling for #peace in a video he posted in 2015. In the video, Kotsaba was calling to boycott military mobilisation for the #conflict in Eastern #Ukraine.

Kotsaba had already spent 524 days under #arrest for his expressions opposing the #war and was duly acquitted in 2016. His retrial is a clearly politically motivated #persecution which must end immediately. Furthermore he was attacked by neo-Nazis several times and seriously wounded. For background and more information on Ruslan’s case, see here.

War Resisters’ International ( #WRI ), European Bureau for Conscientious Objection ( #EBCO ) and Connection e.V. are calling for #international actions ahead of Kotsaba’s next hearing, scheduled to take place on September 20th.

What can you do?
- Write to the #Prosecutor General of Ukraine demanding an end to his #prosecution. You can use our template letter which can be reached here.
- Organize a #vigil in front of an Ukrainian #embassy or #consulate in your country. You can find the list of Ukrainian embassies here.
- Ask #politicians in your country to support Ruslan Kotsaba by sending a letter to the Ukrainian authorities and/or the Prosecutor General.

Please contact us about your activities via actionruslankotsaba@Connection-eV.org.

WRI, EBCO and Connection e.V. are standing in #solidarity with Ruslan Kotsaba. We urge the Ukrainian #government to end his prosecution and to ensure that all #pacifists, in Ukraine, including the #activists of Ukrainian Pacifist Movement, are able to freely express their opinions and continue their non-violent activity. We also urge the Ukrainian government to safeguard the right to #ConscientiousObjection to military service, according to the European and international standards.

Fugitive #Anonymous #Hacker ‘Commander X’ Arrested, Extradited From #Mexico

Demonstrators occupied the front steps of the Santa Cruz Courthouses for approximately two months, from July 4 to October 2, 2010, to protest the county’s law against camping that directly impacted people experiencing homelessness in the city.

Illegal camping - must be a very dangerous cyber criminal ;)

The #photo that is supposed to expose Roman #Protasevich as a #Nazi is presumably #fake.

I have tested the photo with #FotoForensic: https://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=88894f5bfd4413b509a70c0bc236243255379ff4.241848

Tutorial here: https://fotoforensics.com/tutorial.php?tt=ela

Short explanation: The sun shines very brightly on the entire photo. Therefore, the brightness should be evenly distributed over the entire #image. But you can see that the flags in the background are displayed much darker than the people in the foreground. Therefore, either the background or the foreground has been manipulated. Wearing a uniform does not make someone a Nazi.

I suspect the photo is being distributed by pro-Russian trolls to discrete Protasevich and justify the #arrest by #Lukashenko.

But Clary, the highest-ranking #officer among at least six state troopers at the scene of Greene’s May 10, 2019, arrest, told investigators later that day that he had no body camera footage of the incident — a #statement proven to be untrue when his 30-minute body #camera video of the arrest emerged last month.
