(NL Times) The controversial Palestinian activist Mohammed Khatib will still speak at Radboud University in Nijmegen on Monday, lecturer Harry Pettit, the organizer of the address, wrote on X. “He will not be silenced,” Pettit said, referring to the Dutch government barring Khatib access to the Netherlands.
Khatib will speak at 1:00 p.m. during a pro-Palestinian demonstration in front of Radboud University’s Spinoza building, Pettit said.
Radboud University told Trouw that it was “not familiar” with the exact plan, but was keeping an eye on it. According to the university, Khatib can’t enter the Netherlands so the only real possibility is an address via video screen. “We are following the developments and trying to interpret them as best as possible,” the spokesperson said.
