Solidarity with the protesters and hunger strikers in Idomeni!

PLEASE SHARE!

29.11.2015

After the massive riots and police clashes of yesterdays, strikers are
even more in need of transnational solidarity.

We are currently setting up an Infopoint for the people who are pushed
back at the Greek-Macedonian Border in Idomeni.
In order to show the people who are protesting that their calls are
being heard and their struggle is recognised in Europe and across the
world, we are asking for individuals and groups to send statements of
solidarity: small moments of support for those fighting for their
freedom of movement. Declarations of unity to those struggling against
Fortress Europe.

Send us whatever sign of support comes to your mind. We will be present
in Idomeni with printer, megaphone and camera. We will print all
statement, photographs and poems. Play the words of solidarity. And
report back on what happens.

Let us prove that no fence, no wall and no military presence can seal
borders. Let us be there to show support and solidarity to those in
struggle. And if not in person, than in word, picture and sound. Send us
your solidarity call to freemovementinfocar(at)riseup.net or post it here!

Walls fall only when those shaking their foundations are being heard!

URGENT
We are still searching for further translations: Slovenian, Arabic,
Farsi, Macedonian, Portuguese, Pashto, Kurmanji, Turkish etc. If someone
knows anyone who could translate the statement, that would be great!

And we will set up our infopoint from tomorrow in Idomeni/Eidomeni where
the road crosses the train tracks. We will share the statements there.
Everyone welcome.

Furthermore, we have written a letter of solidarity with the protesters
and hunger strikers in Idomeni, which we are going to share at our
Infopoint. Please find it attached.

Solidarität mit den Protestierenden und Hungerstreikenden in Idomeni!

Wir sind dabei einen Infopunkt aufzubauen für die Menschen, die an der
griechisch-mazedonischen Grenze in Idomeni festsitzen und zurückgedrängt
werden.
Um den Protestierenden zu zeigen, dass ihre Rufe und ihr Kampf in Europa
und der ganzen Welt gesehen und gehört werden, rufen wir dazu auf,
Solidaritätserklärungen zu senden: Momente der Unterstützung für
diejenigen, die für ihre Bewegungsfreiheit kämpfen. Vereinte Erklärungen
derjenigen, die gegen die Festung Europa kämpfen.

Sendet uns, was immer euch als Zeichen der Unterstützung einfällt. Wir
werden in Idomeni Drucker, Megaphone und Kamera bei uns haben und alle
Erklärungen, Fotos und Gedichte ausdrucken, die Worte der Solidarität
abspielen und berichten, was passiert.

Lasst uns zeigen, dass kein Zaun, keine Mauer und kein Militär die
Grenzen abriegeln kann. Lasst uns da sein, um Unterstützung und
Solidarität für die Protestierenden zu zeigen. Und wenn nicht
persönlich, dann mit Worten, Bildern und Tonaufnahmen. Sendet uns eure
Solidaritätserklärungen an: freemovementinfocar(at)riseup.net oder postet

Eidomeni riots - 30.11.15

Yesterday there was a huge protest in Eidomeni (Greek-Macedonian border), where Macedonian police (supported and arranged by EU) started to build a fence in the morning, similar to the one on the Hungarian-Serbian and Hungarian-Croatian border. People who are not from Syria, Afghanistan or Iraq have been stuck there for 11 days already.

There have been various forms of protests for freedom happening.
Since the 23 of November a group of hunger-strikers have sewed their mouths, demanding to open the border. There have been several blockades of the railway. We saw lots of creative ways of struggle (posters, banners, songs,…). A big riot against the border system broke out on Saturday 28 of November. This system is in Idomeni represented by the Macedonian (FYROM) and also the Greek border police and army, as well as the fence with barbed wire that was installed. The cops, who keep up a imagined border, received stones, and ‘answered’ by throwing them back at the migrants in the camp and around and using gas- and smoke grenades against the crowd.

Lets oppose the politics of “divide and conquer” that the authorities and institutions use !

no nations – no borders – just people!

The European Union and its member states are responsible, we know it since colonial times and the never ending war machine that is being kept up for the sake of imperial, capitalist interest.

So we solidarize with the rebellious people in Eidomeni, with the hunger-strikers and with everyone who fights for the freedom of movement of people no matter at which place.

This is an open call for people living in the “core” of the EU monster: in several places there will be protests on Tuesday, the 1st of December. Address the responsible institutions ! make your solidarity and rage visible! Annoy your local repression-institution! Lets be together, smash militarism and border-exclusion.

For self-organisation, freedom and responsibility!

3.12.2015

12.30: Situation is very tense and complex. Greek special unit has surrounded the protestors which are blocking the crossing. Massive tear gas/pepper spray actions of them against protesters who try to reach the enclosed groups at the fence. Hundreds of Syrians wait on the field besides the camp. Parts of Camp A are closed by those who cannot pass the border. Greek police is somehow present at the entrance of the complex. At the railway station in the back, there is one train to depart around 1 or 2 pm to Athens. Police advises people to take this train. UNHCR is not present. Official infrastructure has broken down. Desperation and anger is taking over, there is rumours that one person committed suicide some hours ago. We observe only little media presence.

Obviously there is only one sustainable solution to this willingly generated catastrophy: The border has to be opened.

11.00: Massive armed fightings between Syrians and Non-Syrians because nobody is allowed to cross the border at the moment. Divide et impera.

09.00: The border is still closed. All nationalities are stuck now. Conflicts are rising among those who could pass, and those who cannot. People are trying to walk to other border crossings. UNHCR has left the camp tonight. Europe’s strategy of divide et impera has worked out so far.

2.12.2015

24.00: Update: It’s not ten buses waiting, it’s twenty. Additional 1000 persons will have to sleep outside tonight.

23.00: The border crossing is still blocked by protestors. Greek police has completely left the border zone. Right now around ten buses are arriving. UNHCR reports that they have no clue how to accommodate the newly arriving persons. Obviously they have enough stored goods, but no staff to distribute it.

19.00: Still hundreds of protesters in front of the fence. The border crossing is blocked, nobody can pass right now. The camp is getting crowded as new people still arrive.

17.00: Protesters shout ‚Etihad‘ (United) to gather all nationalities in front of the fence.

16.00: Protesters have teared down the fences of the crosspoint. Situation tense. Greek police doesn’t intervene.

15.00: Hundreds gather at the crosspoint as rumours have spreaded that border would be opened in 2 hours. Macedonian police/army has strengthened its presence with water cannons and riot units. We have no confirmed information about border opening.

13.30: Hundreds of refugees tried to pass the fence at its end and just came back to the camp. They reported, that Macedonian army/police was entering Greek territory and shot on them with rubber bullets. Furthermore, they told about warning shots in the air.

13.20: Yesterday evening, about 30 buses arrived. This resulted in chaos this morning at the crossing point. The cage surrounding it, was destroyed.
