Quotes

  • In my view, citizens must understand that this poses a threat to everyone. It sets a dangerous precedent, implying that anyone who refuses to conform risks arrest. But what exactly did Louisa Hanoune do? She simply fulfilled her responsibilities as an activist and political party leader to the fullest. Her arrest was solely for exercising her political rights and performing her duties.
  • This concept reflects a troubling shift towards totalitarianism, posing a serious threat to the entire nation. Those responsible for incarcerating Louisa Hanoune must reconsider their actions, as her arrest is not only harmful to the country but also damages the reputation of the ANP.
  • The decision to incarcerate a female politician, the leader of a legitimate political party, is utterly inexplicable—except for the possibility that those responsible hold an authoritarian view of political life and action. This cannot be a decision made by the entire military institution; that is simply impossible. To me, this choice is completely baffling. More importantly, it is unacceptable, scandalous, and intolerable.
