Amnesty Christmas card campaign

About us

Based in London, we are an informal group dedicated to supporting democracy and human rights throughout the former Soviet Union. Our aims are:

• Informing the public about issues in this area that receive little coverage in the Western media.
• Staging peaceful demonstrations and letter-writing campaigns in support of specific causes.
• Supporting and publicising nonviolent pro-democracy groups throughout the region.
• Encouraging European and American involvement.

E-Mail Lukashenka!

Mikhail Marinich
We are continuing to focus our efforts on the Belarusian prisoner of conscience Mikhail Marinich. We are campaigning for him to receive proper medical treatment, to be permitted to see his family, and ultimately to be released from prison pending a review of his case. You can help by distributing our factsheets and letters.
