Do you support whistleblowers? “I call on Governments worldwide to put an end to multiple campaigns of defamation, mobbing and even prosecution of whistleblowe...rs like Julian Assange, Edward Snowden, the Luxleakers Antoine Deltour and Raphael Halet and the tax corruption leaker Rafi Rotem.... Whistleblowers are human rights defenders whose contribution to democracy and the rule of law cannot be overestimated. They serve democracy and human rights by revealing information that all persons are entitled to receive." - UN expert Alfred de Zayas
