Protest movements should not rely on other states as they have little interest in human rights in other countries for lack of benefit. Foreign countries tolerate or even support dictatorships for examlple through arms sales. However some states could pursue their own interests by supporting protest movements. So if a protest movement manages to match its goals and the interests of other states then such support could be obtained from outside.

Attack on the rue des Rosiers: the secret pact with the terrorists
37 years after the bombing of the Rue des Rosiers in Paris, the former head of the French intelligence has admitted before a judge to have negotiated an agreement with the group responsible for the killing.
...
For the first time, the former spy master recognizes in court the existence of a secret agreement between France and Abu Nidal, a terrorist group potentially responsible for the killing. An oral pact ignored by the numerous investigators and magistrates who have succeeded each other for three decades on this insoluble issue. On record, Yves Bonnet confirms a "commitment given to representatives of Abu Nidal not to be prosecuted in France".
...
The pact is sealed: members of Abou Nidal refugees abroad are allowed to "come to France, without risk" to be prosecuted; in return, they undertake "not to engage in any violent action". The DST even allowed two of the organization's terrorists to visit, in prison, in France, the two perpetrators of the murder of a representative of the Palestine Liberation Organization in Paris.
"And it worked, there was no more attacks from late 83, 84 and until the end of 1985," is satisfied Yves Bonnet audition, which refutes the term "collaboration" and prefers the one of "non-aggression". "After committing attacks in Italy, for example, it did not concern me as long as there was nothing on French soil. "

Planning paper of the security - agencies Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA/Bundeskriminalamt) wants to do more against right-wing extremism
With a new structure and more staff, the Federal Criminal Police Office wants to investigate intensely against right-wing terrorist groups. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution should also be increased.
...
According to this, the BKA is to intensify the investigation against right-wing terrorist groups and individual offenders in the future with a new structure and more personnel. In addition, a "central office to combat hate crime" should be established in the agency.
...
With regard to hate crime on the Internet, the BKA plans to introduce a "national body for consistent combat". The aim should be to be able to identify the authors of hate and threatening messages more quickly through increased Internet observation and contact with providers and social networks. This may require longer retention periods for so-called data retention and a criminal offense that covers the creation and distribution of so-called 'enemy and death lists'.

Debate on bill - Protection of the constitution should be allowed to enter apartments
The protection of the constitution should protect democracy and ward off espionage. This information can be collected and people are monitored if there is appropriate evidence of danger. But the protection of the constitution has no police powers, so it can not intervene. A draft law of the Federal Ministry of the Interior now provides for criticism - because constitutional protectors should also be allowed to penetrate into apartments to play surveillance software on IT equipment.
