During the last month we witnessed the State escalating its anti-immigration policy of restrictions against refugees and the solidarity movement. In Addition to the EU management of migration issues which include forcing people to live in horrible conditions ,deporting them and denying them their basic human rights, the Greek government is revealing its totalitarian face by demonstrating its repression power through evicting political and housing squats for refugees.
\n<\/p>\n
In the last days new information was leaked through newspapers, about court decisions focusing on the eviction of three more squats. Papoutsadiko, Zoodoxou Pigis 119 and City Plaza, one of the largest refugee squats that hosts around 400 people. It is clear that the State is focusing in shutting down every self organised free space, including all housing squats for refugees. An attack towards City Plaza or any squat is an attack to all of us.<\/p>\n
They know how to use the power of riot police forces, but we know how to use the power of solidarity! As long as they try to evict the squats, as long as they build camps and detention centers, as long as there are borders \u2013 we will also be there to fight back and fight for a better world!<\/p>\n
We won\u2019t bend down, we won\u2019t let them in, we stand united!
\nWe will show them again what we already proved, we live together, we struggle and we resist together \u2013 to defend the dignity of each individual, to defend our principles of solidarity and to keep our free spaces open.<\/p>\n
Therefore we call for a protest and a gathering on June 23rd, in front of the Ministry of Migration (Stadiou 27) at 7 pm.<\/p>\n
On the same day we call for an International Action of solidarity towards all squats and against evictions!<\/p>\n
\u2013 Keep the squats open!
\n\u2013 Close the camps and detention centers!
\n\u2013 Cancel the shameful EU-Turkey deal!
\n\u2013 Open the borders!
\n\u2013 You can\u2019t evict a movement!<\/p>\n
