[link removed]
to silence dissent among diaspora and exiled communities. In 2023, Freedom House recorded 125 incidents of transnational repression committed by 25 governments. Our database
[link removed]
now includes 1,034 direct, physical cases of transnational repression in 100 countries, carried out by 44 governments since 2014.

Now more than ever, democracies must counter this cross-border censorship and elevate and nurture the voices that perpetrators of transnational repression seek to silence.
