BATI TRAKYA AZINLIĞI YÜKSEK TAHSİLLİLER DERNEĞİ ΣΥΛΛΟΓΟΣ ΕΠΙΣΤΗΜΟΝΩΝ ΜΕΙΟΝΟΤΗΤΑΣ ΔΥΤΙΚΗΣ ΘΡΑΚΗΣ WESTERN THRACE MINORITY UNIVERSITY GRADUATES ASSOCIATION The most recent instance in this regard is the targeting of me and another colleague by a local media outlet after we attended an OSCE conference in Warsaw a few weeks ago and raised awareness of related issues we face. The voice of minority rights defenders is the voice of suffering people who face various forms of intolerance, rights abuses and pressure in their daily lives. What is attempted to be silenced in Western Thrace is the voice of suffered people. Therefore, we recommend that the UN urge Greece to take action to protect minority rights defenders who have recently been subjected to pressure and stigma in Western Thrace. Thank you B.T.A.Y.T.D.
