The Identity and Democracy group makes the voices of persecuted Christians heard!

The Identity and Democracy group is pleased to announce that Monsignor Najeeb, Archbishop of Mosul, is one of the three shortlisted finalists for the 2020 Sakharov Prize.
Bishop Najeeb experienced Islamic barbarism in his own flesh and is undoubtedly the emblematic figure of resistance to the Islamic State.

 

Through his actions, with refugees, but also the safeguard of a thousand-year-old heritage, he embodies courage, rootedness, sacrifice, dialogue between cultures - the values ​​that live in our people and that the members of the ID group defend with body and soul in the European Parliament.
