The Democratic Society Movement (TEV-DEM) held a meeting with women at the Berxwedan Camp in Shehba to assess the recent political developments in the region.

TEV-DEM Executive Council Co-Chair Zelal Cîger joined the meeting attended by many women.

Speaking at the meeting, after a minute’s silence, Zelik Cîger said that the region has come to a new stage after the defeat of DAESH (ISIS) mercenaries.

Cîger pointed out that the states saying they were working to reach a solution of the Syria crisis in reality had taken no step towards a solution and acted only to defend their interests.

Cîger said that all wars in the region are waged by capitalism against the ideas of Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan.

The TEV-DEM executive added that the people of the region should be prepared and organized according to the conditions of the revolution despite the difficulties. “People who want their freedom should be ready for all kinds of struggle”, she said.

Cîger drew attention to the resistance of women in the Resistance of the Age, and continued as follows: “Women continue to resist in Shehba now. The Rojava revolution developed under the leadership of women. As women, we must now be organized for new breakthroughs”.

The meeting ended after comments and evaluations by the audience.
