Eastern Flank Commissioners urge von der Leyen to appoint special coordinator as Russian threat grows
Five EU Commissioners from Eastern Flank states have urged President Ursula von der Leyen to create a special coordinator role, amid several urgent measures meant to address the growing Russian threats to the Baltics.
The Kamerton Prize, named after slain Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya, has honored U.S. envoy John Coale with a special award for his role in securing the release of nearly 500 political prisoners in Belarus. This year, the prestigious prize, awarded for professional excellence and commitment to free speech, was presented to three independent Russian outlets and a musician.
The prize, which translates to "tuning fork," is given annually to recognize individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to journalism and human rights.
