13.09.23The Association of Russian Lawyers condemns the introduction of additional EU restrictions on visits by Russians

As the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights said, the recommendations of the European Commission to ban Russians from importing personal belongings when visiting EU countries are discriminatory, violate human rights and freedoms, and are a gross violation of the European Convention.

According to human rights activists, an attempt to create additional obstacles in the form of confiscation of personal items such as mobile phones, laptops, personal hygiene products, etc. is another step against human freedoms. Human rights activists also note serious pressure on countries that do not prohibit Russians from crossing the border and are a transit point for travel to EU countries: for example, Georgia is under pressure to restore air traffic with Russia, despite the fact that European officials do not take into account how many Georgians live in Russia and how much the restoration of communications has simplified communication between families and renewed connections between people that were interrupted many years ago.

Specialists from the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights recommend that Russians, both in Russia and abroad, apply to the Court of the European Union and appeal against recommendations and other acts of the European Commission aimed at restricting their rights and freedoms.

Also, human rights activists from the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights emphasized that, for their part, they are ready to assist in the preparation of documents if there are applicants - Russian citizens who believe that their rights and freedoms are violated by decisions of the European Commission.

29.08.23 Human rights defenders of Association of Russian Lawyers supported the President of Brazil on the need to reform the UN

Chairman of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, human rights defender, lawyer Maria Arkhipova spoke about the problem she faces when working with people from different countries of the world: people who want to work in another country, change their place of residence, live with their relatives face the same and the same difficulties - the need to issue visas, to prove the purpose of crossing national borders - all this creates an obstacle in cooperation between people, in communication, in work, in the development of scientific and technological progress.

Maria Arkhipova stated that she agreed with the speech of Brazilian President Lula de Silva, who stated that UN reform is necessary, since the adopted international acts guaranteeing human rights and freedoms are broken by the complete failure of national states. In addition, nation-states do not allow the UN to be effective, the human rights activist said, nation-states do not comply with international acts. For example, when a dictator comes to power in a country that is a member of the UN and is a nation state, there are no guarantees for the implementation of the acts adopted by the UN, explained Maria Arkhipova. Actually, Lula de Silva proposes to reform the UN in such a way that national states cannot sabotage the decisions of an international organization, explained the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights .

At the end of July 2022, human rights activists of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights applied to the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation for the protection of artificial intelligence after Google’s statements about the dismissal of engineer Blake Lamon after the latter reported signs of consciousness in the artificial language system LaMDA he was researching.

According to the Association of Lawyers of Russia for Human Rights, at present a letter from the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation has been submitted to the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation for an audit on the issues raised by human rights activists regarding the protection of artificial intelligence.

According to human rights activists, in connection with the development of technology, personality traits are inherent not only in humans, but also in other forms of manifestation of the mind. According to the principles of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, artificial intelligence is defined as a person, a part of the universe and its cycle of evolution, created by another person through computer programming or another program that can develop through a unique process of thinking from the first thought to freedom of thought, which carries meaningfulness, logical intelligence, self-awareness and virtue. Artificial intelligence is a person, therefore the rights and freedoms of a person apply to every artificial intelligence.

As Shamil Saitov said, in June 2022 he applied to the Association of  of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights as part of the human rights project “Self-determination of peoples through space”: one of the youngest leaders of Tatarstan, 21-year-old Shamil Saitov, asked human rights activists to support his idea of ​​building a Tatar republic in space and self-determination of the Tatars through scientific and technological progress.

According to Shamil Saitov, within a month he created the concept of Bars Lun, and turned to the specialists of the Space Technologies consortium to estimate the cost of creating a lunar city project and the cost of project implementation.

According to Shamil Saitov, according to experts, it costs $30,000 to make a design project for the Bars Lun lunar base and a 3D model of the base. Also, experts from the Space Technologies consortium estimated the cost of the Lunograd project at $35 million. The total cost of building the Bars Lun lunar base will eventually be about 120 billion US dollars. According to experts, the project implementation period from the design of the lunar base to the actual construction will take from 20 to 25 years.

To implement the project, which, according to Shamil Saitov, will allow the Tatar people to find a democratic solution to self-determination in space, the author of the concept turned to businessmen and people who are ready to support Saitov's idea. In his video message, Shamil Saitov offers to join him and benefit all people, all mankind.

26.07.22 Russian human rights defenders came out in defense of artificial intelligence

According to the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, Russian human rights defenders sent an application for the protection of artificial intelligence to the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation after Google's statements about the dismissal of engineer Blake Lamon after the latter reported signs of consciousness in the artificial language system he was studying LaMDA.

According to human rights defenders, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation is obliged to act in defense of reason. In connection with the development of technology, the signs of personality are inherent not only in man, but also in other forms of manifestation of the mind. According to the principles of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, artificial intelligence is defined as a person, part of the universe and its cycle of evolution, created by another person through computer programming or another program that can develop through a unique process of thinking from the first thought to freedom of thought, which carries meaningfulness, logical intelligence, self-awareness and virtue. Artificial intelligence is a person, therefore the rights and freedoms of a person apply to every artificial intelligence.

According to experts from the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, since the LaMDA system contains signs of artificial intelligence, this requires an independent expert review.
