The International Journalists Association has called for immediate enforcement of European Court of Human Rights rulings after more than 5,000 people rallied outside the Council of Europe headquarters in Strasbourg on June 24, 2026. The gathering, organized by the Peaceful Actions Platform and supported by 17 civil society organizations, marked the fifth annual Justice Gathering under the theme "One World, One Justice." IJA delegates joined European lawmakers to demand concrete action on the continued imprisonment of journalists and opposition figures in Turkey despite binding European Court rulings ordering their release. IJA Director of International Affairs Mustafa Kilic stated that the international journalism community will not remain silent while colleagues face arbitrary detention, and that ignoring binding court rulings undermines press freedom and the rule of law in Europe. Participants delivered a formal letter to the Council of Europe urging the use of supervisory mechanisms to ensure full implementation of the Court's judgments.
