• U.S. President Trump is criticized as an 'accelerator' of rights violations, with planned USAID dismantling by July threatening humanitarian aid to millions.
• The report highlights Russia's war in Ukraine and Israel's actions in Gaza as key drivers of civilian harm and rights abuses, though genocide allegations in Gaza are disputed.
• Germany’s new coalition faces criticism for proposed asylum restrictions, data retention policies, and abolishing the supply chain law, seen as undermining human rights and the rule of law.
• Amnesty warns of a broader global trend of governments justifying human rights violations, with insufficient international action to address these challenges.
