Mai multe grupuri din estul Europei au semnat un act de solidaritate cu protestatarii din Turcia. Îl puteţi citi mai jos:
We would like to express strong support for the struggle of our comrades across Turkey. They fight the repressive and authoritarian neoliberal regime of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and AKP, who declared open war on the citizens of Turkey by crackdown on peaceful protests. We believe that we are all a part of the same general struggle against neo-liberal capitalism and its violation of economic, civic and social rights.
The protests began as an anti-capitalist, environmental assembly of several hundred citizens trying to prevent the destruction of Gezi park: one of the remaining symbols of left activism, the LGBT community and other progressive forces in Istanbul. State repression has provoked a mass rebellion against the government, which is joined by more and more people everyday, including minority groups, trade unions and labor movements.
Gezi park is becoming a new Tahrir Square. It follows the path taken by mass movements all over the world in the past two years, from Indignados to Occupy and the struggles in Greece. The mass trade unions have already embarked on a two day general strike, demanding an end to repression against the popular movement. The situation escalates every hour. It is not just a protest. It is a popular uprising demanding radical change.
The citizens of Turkey gives us an example of how we must all stand together against hegemonic elites that threaten every kind of community and common good. None of the Balkan countries is exempt nor safe from capitalist autocrats and neoliberal politices. Fighting our own battles and struggles is the best way to show solidarity with the people in Turkey.
The struggle of the people of Turkey is our struggle. We must all put an end to the neoliberal politics of part
