03 August 2021 Human rights defender Maria Arkhipova (Bast) assessed the current level of consciousness of human civilization

As the Association of Russian Lawyers  for Human Rights said, within the framework of the Association's work, questions are often asked related to the philosophical platform of the Association, and among them there is often the topic of whether human civilization has reached a sufficient level of development for the first contact with a highly developed civilization.

Maria Arkhipova (Bast) voiced her attitude to the issue of the uniqueness of human civilization. According to the human rights activist, given that there are trillions and trillions of stars in the Universe, it is illogical to consider ourselves unique, the only living beings. At the same time, the lack of contact from the side of highly developed civilizations, the human rights activist connects with the low level of development of human civilization as a whole, the understanding of the need to respect human rights and freedoms. For example, Russians are more often concerned not with the observance of human rights and freedoms, but with wages, housing services and similar everyday issues, although human rights and freedoms, the level of democracy determine everyday life. The logical connection between the observance of human rights and freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law among Russians is weak. It is important to understand what kind of civilization, if it is highly developed, will come into contact with creatures who have not established logical thinking. It is important to understand that civilization is assessed not individually, not by scientists, not by cosmonauts, but as a whole - in aggregate with all its contradictions and unsolved problems.

05.05.21 Human rights defenders congratulate on the Day of Europe

On May 05, 1949, representatives of ten states signed the Charter of the Council of Europe, since 1996 and to this day Russia is a member of the Council of Europe. Europe Day has been celebrated annually on May 05 as “the day of peace and unity in Europe” since 1964.

Human rights defenders remind that Russia, as a member of the Council of Europe, has joined the basic principles of observance of human rights and freedoms and has undertaken obligations to ensure respect for human rights and freedoms and their protection in accordance with the European Convention on Human Rights.

Human values, respect for human rights and freedoms, humanism are the priority of all participating states. However, not all participating states develop evenly: in some countries, human rights and freedoms are better observed, somewhere there is a serious attack on human rights and freedoms, and universal values ​​are being replaced by traditional values ​​and ideas of certain regimes that are far from democracy.  All this causes an imbalance within Europe and leads to double standards of respect for human rights and freedoms and democratic principles.

09.11.20 Human rights defenders propose to remove the term of "race" from legislation

According to the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, the term “race” should be excluded from all regulations - from the Constitution of the Russian Federation to by-laws, and they also propose to abandon the term at the international level as outdated and unscientific, since humanity has no different races.

According to human rights defenders of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, initially the use of the term "race" was intended to emphasize the distance from racial ideology, but today the term is outdated and rather indicates the permissibility of racial discrimination in the country by its mere mention in the country's constitution. At the same time, the experts of the Association emphasized, the term “race” should be replaced by a formulation that excludes racism: human rights activists propose a ban on discrimination based on any external difference.

Commentary by Maria Bast (Arkhipova), Chairman of the Association of Russian Lawyers  for Human Rights:


14 September 2020 Human rights defenders demand that social media recognize the ownership of verified users of social media

According to the press service of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, over the past 2 months the number of complaints about the blocking of profiles and pages on social networks, with which users do not agree, has increased, especially often people face problems on Facebook.

According to the specialists of the Association of Lawyers of Russia for Human Rights, the recognition of ownership of a profile by a person who has confirmed his account with a passport or other document replacing it is the only logical solution that will protect the rights of the owner. The reason for blocking a profile or a page must be a court decision, the experts of the Association said.

As the Association of Lawyers of Russia for Human Rights said, for many today a page or profile on social networks is part of their private life, part of their professional activity, and blocking without warning is an interference in a person's life, hindering his professional activities, because many profiles and pages exist for more than 10 years, it contains unique information collected by a person or information from an organization, the owner of which is not the person himself, but the owner of a social network, and billions of people on planet Earth are hostages of one owner, and their information is not their property, but is the property of the owner social network. This leads to the fact that the property of billions of people is at the disposal of one person, and gives unlimited power to use and dispose of this information, to make a profit, sometimes not in the interests of the people themselves.

15.07.20 Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights considers Bill Mizulina-Narusova a crime against humanity

According to the press service of tAssociation of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, the Association’s specialists work with information from official sources on the bill introduced by a group of Russian senators on July 14, 2020, which will forbid people who have changed their gender in documents to make changes to birth certificate and other documents, also the bill will actually violate medical and judicial secrets. In addition, they said, the text of the bill includes amendments requiring all citizens to prove before marriage that they have a genetic gender, i.e. submit a certificate of analysis for the karyotype (number and structure of chromosomes). According to human rights activists, people with a genetic or hormonal disorder will also lose the opportunity to marry.

According to human rights activist Maria Arkhipova, the intervention provided for by the bill in private life will lead to large-scale violations of human rights and freedoms, will become an instrument for destroying families, careers, existing lives of people who have been married for decades and have children, such a bill, if adopted, will form a criminal the practice of placing people in isolation on the basis of sex at birth - women will end up in men's prisons and vice versa. As Maria Arkhipova explained, such a law, if adopted, is a crime against humanity and is comparable to the Holocaust against Jews and is analogous to the Nuremberg law of 1935, which in turn is the basis for the formation of a tribunal if adopted.

According to the press service of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, on July 05, 2020 the page of human rights activist and chairman of the Association of Russian Lawyers for Human Rights, Maria Arkhipova (Bast), was blocked on Facebook after posting a publication against racism and intolerance.

According to Maria Arkhipova, Facebook has often begun to block free speech and apparently makes profit from hate campaigns and racism, as it blocks publications against discrimination. According to the human rights activist, earlier it was customary to write off such locks on artificial intelligence errors, but when the locks began to become widespread, this can not be explained by anything other than a Facebook policy aimed at enriching due to discrimination and racism.

According to Maria Arkhipova, the #StopHateForProfit campaign was created by organizations that have long been fighting discrimination and protecting human rights. Campaigners urge businesses and organizations to abandon Facebook ads and not enrich a company that thrives on racism.

According to the press service of the Association of Lawyers of Russia for Human Rights, Maria Arkhipova plans to file a lawsuit in connection with discrimination by Facebook.

As explained by Maria Arkhipova (Bast), the guarantee of property in space will arouse interest in space exploration and resource extraction by private companies. Moreover, Maria Arkhipova welcomed similar decisions previously made by Luxembourg, as well as Ukraine at the end of 2019.
