May 19, 2025

As authoritarian regimes face mounting pressure across the globe, leading human rights advocate Thor Halvorssen joins political analyst and Kyiv Post special correspondent Jason Jay Smart to deliver an exciting analysis of what may come next – perhaps in the very near future.

Halvorssen – president of the Human Rights Foundation and founder of the Oslo Freedom Forum – asserts that from Russia to Irandictatorships are weakening under the weight of internal dissent, international sanctions, and rising global resistance.

In this exclusive interview, he outlines how 2025 could mark the beginning of a domino effect that topples some of the world’s most entrenched regimes

Halvorssen, a strong supporter of Ukraine, is going to lead the Oslo Freedom Forum next week.
