  "account": "The FAES Foundation, led by José María Aznar, awarded its Liberty Prize to three women who have fought for freedom in Russia, Cuba, and Iran. Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of Alexei Navalny, Rosa María Payá, a Cuban activist, and Masih Alinejad, an Iranian journalist, were honored at a ceremony where they shared their experiences and struggles against dictatorship. The event, which was attended by Aznar and other notable figures, highlighted the importance of freedom and the need for stronger support from Western leaders in the face of oppressive regimes. The prize ceremony was marked by emotional speeches, including one by Masih Alinejad, who threw her hijab to the ground in protest against the Iranian regime's oppression of women.",
  "summary": "FAES presented its Freedom Prize last Friday, at an event that would have been very much to the liking of that Castilian farmer.",
