L’ONU demande à la France de «mettre un terme à la persécution» de militants de Greenpeace

Comments

1. Amirmeyer: don't they always get arrested afterwards though?
2. Arlos: il est inacceptable que les activistes d'environnement soient détenus et condamnés plutôt que soutenus dans leur travail pour protéger notre plan
3. Liama: what's striking is that this report focuses on the activists themselves, rather than the issue they were protesting
4. Noel: un peu ironique que l'ONU se met enfin à s'en soucier, quand même, pas étonnant qu'ils soient si silencieux
5. Felix: I don't really follow the activist scene, but isn't this just a repeat of what's happening in Russia with their eco-activists?
6. Miaadeyemi: i've been following the Greenpeace case for a while, but this latest appeal from the UN rapporteur is what gets me - we need to see real consequences for France's actions
7. Lunar Corvid: apparently getting arrested just isn't as effective a protest tactic as i thought lol can we focus on what they were actually demonstrating against?
8. Omardoyle: surprised they didn't mention the broader context of environmental activism in France right now
