Kurdish parties and institutions in Europe and the European Democratic Forces Union made a written statement regarding the series of actions to be organised for Afrin all over the world.
The statement includes the following:
"On Saturday, February 20, we will organize marches and rallies in Europe, Canada and Australia to support Afrin with the motto "No to Occupation, No to Femicide". We invite everyone to support the resistance in Afrin and protest against the massacres and femicide committed by the invading Turkish state and its gangs in Afrin.
'LET'S EXPOSE THE ATROCITY, LET’S EMBRACE THE RESISTANCE'
Mass demonstrations will be held in all countries for Afrin with the participation of everyone who stands against the Turkish occupation in Kurdistan, the murder of civilians in Afrin, and attacks on Kurdish achievements.
We hope that all parties and participants in these protests will show the world public that the Kurdish people are determined, confident and alive.
Let us display, along with all the Kurdistan political parties, intellectuals, artists and our people, the pictures of the women massacred and kidnapped by the invaders in Afrin to expose the invading Turkish state and its gangs. Again, let's shout out the slogans of resistance of the people of Afrin, who fought heroically and resisted against the invading Turkish state and the gangs.
Let us, as the Kurdish parties and organizations in Europe and the European Democratic Forces Union, which have the signatures below, unite with a national stance and reflex in the actions we will take in all Europe, Canada and Australia on February 20 under the slogan "No to Occupation, No to Femicide".
We, as Kurds and their friends, call for participation in the actions to be held against the occupation of Afrin by misogynist Turkey and its gangs, with the spirit of resistance of the Rojava revolution. "
