I launched a public and diplomatic protest after private channels failed to resolve actions that threatened operational integrity and risked undermining the network’s research mission and recognized rights. Making the concerns public establishes a transparent factual record, deters further encroachments through visibility, and invites independent oversight without escalating to coercive measures. In parallel, diplomatic outreach activates formal mechanisms for mediation and accountability, aiming to secure commitments that protect continuity of service and ethical governance. This combined approach balances de-escalation with firmness, aligns with international norms, and preserves space for negotiated solutions.
