Highlights - Exchange of views with the 2025 Sakharov Prize laureates - Committee on Foreign Affairs

On Monday, 15 December, the Committees on Foreign Affairs and on Development and the Subcommittee on Human Rights will hold a joint exchange of views with representatives of the 2025 Sakharov Prize laureates Andrzej Poczobut from Belarus and Mzia Amaglobeli from Georgia.
Andrzej Poczobut is a journalist, essayist, blogger and activist from the Polish minority in Belarus. Known for his opposition to Alexander Lukashenko's regime, he has become a symbolic figure in the struggle for freedom and democracy in Belarus. Detained since 2021 and sentenced to eight years, he has endured solitary confinement. In a resolution adopted on 15 March 2023, the European Parliament called Andrzej Poczobut's immediate and unconditional release. Mzia Amaglobeli, a Georgian journalist and director of online media outlets Batumelebi and Netgazeti, is the first female political prisoner in Georgia since its independence, and a fighter for freedom of expression. Detained in 2025 and imprisoned for two years, Amaglobeli has become a prominent symbol of Georgia's pro-democracy protest movement. The European Parliament demanded on 19 June 2025 Mzia Amaglobeli's immediate and unconditional release and condemned the Georgian Dream authorities.
