The Turkish state’s genocidal offensive against North and East Syria was protested at the yearly “peace” march in the German city of Stuttgart.

Representatives of dozens of institutions joined the march, including leftist parties and NGOs from Germany, Democratic Kurdish Community Centre in Stuttgart, Verdi Union, DGB, Die Linke and DKP.

The march was held under the motto “Time to act for a world in which nobody has to flee. For peace and ecological social justice”.

Other banners displayed by the demonstrators read “Capitalism: System of Crises”, “Solidarity with the Kurdish freedom struggle – Stop NATO and Imperialism” and “Long live the Rojava revolution”.
