Latvian blogger: democracy and freedom of speech in Europe became an excess and a criminal case
For the last decade there has been no democracy in European countries – as noted by Latvian blogger Juta Sofia Vasilevska during her talk with Belarus 1 TV channel, commenting on the vaunted democratic values
The blogger noted that the political situation in Europe is now changing, “Democracy and freedom of speech in European countries have become an excess and a criminal case. I am talking, in particular, about Germany, Austria. Expressing one’s own opinion, a person practically risks their freedom. Under the new laws, a person gets 10 years in prison for supporting Russia. The corresponding document was adopted in Germany, and similar laws are beginning to be adopted in all EU countries.”
Juta Sofia Vasilevska said that she had lived in Europe for about thirty years and can say with confidence that there has been no democracy in the EU for the last decade, “There is no freedom of opinion or freedom of speech.”
