#Kazakh women welcome the new law criminalising violence against women and children. Read more here about a film addressing gender violence, and our Fellow Naila Mukhtarova's opinion on underlying causes of violence. 👇 astanatimes.com/2024/04/kazakh…
What great news to see legislation passed on criminalising domestic violence and protecting the safety of children. The right legislative framework is the foundation for the range of measures needed to protect those at risk.

Last week I had a working lunch with UK Members of Parliament at Westminster. I was pleased to see much empathy towards the struggle of NK Armenians and an outstanding support to the Armenian issues by the MPs. Thank you, dear @CMonaghanSNP, @RupaHuq, and Rick Nimmo. 🇦🇲🇬🇧
Was delighted to meet with UK MPs, Peers & senior Clerks last week. As fellows of @JohnSmithTrust we learnt a lot about parliamentary processes in UK and engaged in detailed dialogue about UK relations with our countries. Thanks a lot for hosting @BGIPU @RickNimmo @JoePerry42
The UK stands in solidarity with the Belarusian people in the face of the Lukashenko regime’s relentless repression. It was an honour to hear direct from the fellows of @JohnSmithTrust. Their courage in pursuing a free and democratic future for Belarus is inspirational.
