Hi All, I hope you are all well. To view/listen live to the Jan. 20, 2023 video of "The Belmarsh Tribunal" on Julian Assange at the National Press Club Washington DC which was held on Jan. 20, 2023. It is very interesting.
On January 20, Democracy Now! recorded the Belmarsh Tribunal from Washington, D.C. The event featured expert testimony from journalists, whistleblowers, lawyers, publishers and parliamentarians on press freedom and the case of Julian Assange.
A landmark case in this campaign is that of Julian Assange, the publisher who founded WikiLeaks, exposed crimes by the United States government, and now faces 175 years in prison if extradited from the Belmarsh Prison where he is currently held in the United Kingdom.
Inspired by the Russell-Sartre Tribunals of the Vietnam War, the Belmarsh Tribunal brings together a range of expert witnesses - from constitutional lawyers, to acclaimed journalists and human rights defenders - to present evidence of this attack on publishers and to seek justice for the crimes they expose.
