The people of Pakistan-administered Jammu Kashmir are facing one of the bloodiest episodes of state repression in recent history. A mass movement built around economic and democratic demands has been met with curfews, communication blackouts, live ammunition, and collective punishment. The administration in PaJK has once again exposed itself as a puppet of the Pakistani state, implementing policies dictated from Islamabad rather than responding to the democratic aspirations of the people.

Vitaliy Dudin contrasts the readiness of young Ukrainians to mobilise around personnel changes with a reluctance to organise around tariff rises, wage stagnation and the collapse of independent trade unions.
