Boğaziçi University Solidarity Initiative organises exhibition in Berlin

The action carried out by the Boğaziçi University Solidarity Initiative in Berlin to protest the appointment of the trustee rector, salutes the 100th day of resistance in Istanbul.

The action carried out by the Boğaziçi University Solidarity Initiative in Berlin, continues this week with a painting exhibition to celebrate 100 days of resistance in Istanbul.

Boğaziçi University Solidarity Initiative activists reiterated their solidarity and said in a statement: "We salute the Boğaziçi resistance on its 100th day.”

The pictures of 2 students who were arrested after the painting exhibition opened by Boğaziçi University students were displayed in Berlin.

Politician Ahmet Yıldırım, who attended the event, said: “We commend the friends here who turned this place into a new Boğaziçi thousands of kilometres away from Istanbul. What the present government has done to Boğaziçi University is actually a summary of what it has done to the country. For a government to see the university as a fortress that has to be conquered and the society like something to repress, means having no chance to conquering the hearts of the people. Such a government cannot hope to live long.”

HDP deputy Ömer Faruk Gergerlioğlu's son, Fatih, sent a message to the exhibition. The action ended with a concert.
