Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

General Stefan Guse, army officer, died Bucharest 29 March aged 54. A key figure in the overthrow of the Ceausescu dictatorship in December 1989 when he disobeyed orders and a week later was one of the leaders of the dictator's opponents. Appointed commander of the Romanian 2nd Army in 1990.

The photograph used with the obituary of Leon Degrelle yesterday was from Collaboration in Belgium: Leon Degrelle and the Rexist movement, by Martin Conway (1993, Yale University Press).
