I’m calling on major social media platforms to cease the unjust censorship of photos and news articles originating from the Middle East. Such actions stifle the free flow of information, disproportionately silence voices from our region, and undermine the principles of Freedom of Press and Speech.

Respecting freedom of expression is essential to fostering understanding and justice worldwide.
