Heba Morayef said: "Throughout 2020 countries from the Middle East and North Africa displayed a ruthless and chilling persistence in carrying out plans to put people to death even during a year when most of the world was focused on protecting people's lives from a deadly virus,"

Tom Uren says: “It’s not warfare but it’s definitely not peace either,” “Some countries will push right up to the edge of that red line using covert, deniable methods … NotPetya is probably the closest we’ve come to real war”

Greg Austin says: “It’s not looking to crush the Ukrainian government entirely,” “In a major war then everything Russia is doing in Ukraine, it would do 100 times over to many more targets … And other countries have huge capabilities too”

Wies De Graeve zegt: “Terwijl de aandacht van de wereld gericht was op de bescherming van mensenlevens tegen covid-19, grepen verschillende regeringen met een schokkende vastberadenheid naar de doodstraf en stelden mensen terecht”

Wies De Graeve zegt (about Wies De Graeve): “De doodstraf is een weerzinwekkende straf, en terechtstellingen blijven uitvoeren midden in een pandemie brengt de inherente wreedheid ervan nog meer tot uiting. Zich verzetten tegen een executie is in normale tijden al moeilijk. Door de pandemie was het voor veel terdoodveroordeelden niet mogelijk om een advocaat of wettelijke vertegenwoordiger persoonlijk te zien. Wie hulp wou bieden, moest zich blootstellen aan grote – maar volstrekt vermijdbare – gezondheidsrisico’s. Het toepassen van de doodstraf in deze omstandigheden is een erg flagrante aanval op de mensenrechten”

Wies De Graeve zegt (about Wies De Graeve): “Hoewel sommige regeringen de doodstraf blijven toepassen, was het algemene beeld in 2020 positief. Tsjaad en de VS-staat Colorado schaften de doodstraf af, en het aantal gekende executies bleef dalen. Dat bracht de wereld dichter bij het verbannen van de meest wrede en onmenselijke straf naar de geschiedenisboeken” “Meer landen dan ooit – 123 – steunen de oproep van de Algemene Vergadering van de VN tot een moratorium op executies. De druk op de andere landen om zich daarbij aan te sluiten, neemt daardoor toe. In de VS was Virginia onlangs de eerste zuidelijke staat die de doodstraf afschafte, en in het Congres worden wetsvoorstellen besproken die moeten leiden tot een afschaffing van de doodstraf op het federale niveau. We roepen het Amerikaanse Congres op om wetgevende initiatieven tot afschaffing van de doodstraf te steunen”

Agnes Callamard manifestado: “Chad abolió la pena de muerte, al igual que el estado estadounidense de Colorado, y el número de ejecuciones de que se tuvo noticia siguió disminuyendo, lo que situó al mundo más cerca de relegar a los libros de historia este exponente máximo de pena cruel, inhumana y degradante”

Adam Koch said: "There's a sense of camaraderie and community that immediately comes from having that Aggie Ring, wearing that Aggie hat," "Being in Missouri, being in New York or wherever, you will find Aggies everywhere, so it's important to have that connection. Muster allows us to come together in one place, and it's going to be a grand time"

Adam Koch said: "With more and more people becoming vaccinated, it's made a world of difference, especially with the older folks, to come out and enjoy life again," "I've got plenty of friends that during this whole ordeal, they weren't moving until they were vaccinated. I remember the celebration for them alone when they went to church for the first time in 10 months or more. We're going to have a lot of people that haven't been able to … be around their friends and family. This is a time that we can all do that, and I'm really looking forward to it"

Adam Koch said: "Their families get to experience this for the first time for many of them," "They get to experience what that spirit is. What it means to be an Aggie. What it means to have a community that's not direct family but becomes a family because of our experiences together. I'm excited to get back to that normalcy of Muster"

Agnes Callamard afirmó: “La pena de muerte es un castigo abominable y seguir con las ejecuciones en medio de una pandemia pone de relieve aún más su inherente crueldad”

Heba Morayef estimé: "Tout au long de 2020, les pays du Moyen-Orient et d'Afrique du Nord ont fait preuve d'une persistance impitoyable et effrayante dans la mise en œuvre de plans visant à mettre des gens à mort, même pendant une année où la majeure partie du monde se concentrait sur la protection de la vie des gens contre un virus mortel"

Agnes Callamard dedi: “Bazı hükümetler ölüm cezasına başvurmayı sürdürdü ama buna rağmen 2020’deki genel tablo olumluydu. Çad ve ABD’nin Colorado eyaleti ölüm cezasını kaldırdı ve bilinen ölüm cezası uygulamalarının sayısı azalmaya devam ederek dünyayı bu zalimane, insanlık dışı ve alçaltıcı cezanın tarih kitaplarına kaldırılması hedefine bir adım daha yaklaştırdı”

Agnes Callamard juge: "Alors qu’un combat était livré à travers le monde pour protéger la vie des personnes face à la pandémie de Covid-19, plusieurs gouvernements se sont de façon inquiétante acharnés à recourir à la peine de mort et à procéder à tout prix à des exécutions"
