Dear John,
In 2023, Freedom House found that more governments were committing transnational repression, reaching across borders to silence dissent among diasporas and exiled communities.
Despite growing awareness of such behavior, the fact that over 20 percent of countries worldwide have used transnational repression is a testament to the global nature of the problem.
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.
