#1M. Rome. Turkish Embassy. Call for action.

12 / 4 / 2016

An illegal migrant for Turkey for each regular migrant in Europe. A country paid for the “disposal” of refugees towards the hell of war and persecutions, rewarded for the dirty work of illegal refuse with which they would close the entry to the European space. A human being market of the worth of 6 billions of euros. This is the core of the shame signed with the agreement between Turkey and the EU on March 18, 2016. 

On 4 April began the deportation. Bowed, skinny bodies, covered with large jackets. Bodies forced between men in uniforms, masks on their faces and the Frontex seal on the arms. On their background the European flag.

From January 100 men, women and childrens, every day are rejected from a civil war to another one. From Turkey to Syria.

Waiting, 200.000 people crowded the 20 kms of Turkish border. No-man's-land between different states. No-man's-land of the same war.

Turkey is a safe country. For the jihadists and their illegal trade of oil, weapons, human being and artworks. A safe country. Shure to be the European channel of mass rejections. Shure to be considered a candidate to join European Union, by the end of June.

Isis thanks.

 

The fear is the pillar on which European Union material constitution is based.

 

The fear, also called crisis, tell as a loss of the future, call precariousness and lived like an impoverishment.By its name. By its justification, the body of the migrant is exposed to the public humiliation: scapegoat. In the meanwhile the warlocks of xenofobia, racism and neo-fascism have protected and securitized themselves and their profits. Panama papers, where is the national pride?

 

By raising walls, barbed wire, calling for national egoisms and of the narration of the clash of civilizations, answered a marching humanity. We saw it along the Balkan route; continously in motion, while moved Europe. We saw it in the Calais jungle, known and loved at the Idomeni refugee camp, forced between uniforms and grills at the state camps kindly offered by Syriza's Government.

 

The migrants, fenced along the Macedonian-Greek border told us that if a channel is closed, another one became open; passing through Albania, Italy, Austria until Germany

“Wien the red” on April 2, closed its borders. Cancelled Schengen, suspended Europe. On April 3 the Italian-Austrian border has been nonetheless crossed. By hundreds. European citizens ready to welcome all that humanity escaping from our wars. In our home, because we bombed their one.

 

From Idomeni to the Brenner a new challenge is haunting the Fortress Europe: in order to delegitimate from below the borders, domestic and external, and those institutions of neoliberal governance responsible for the policies that create the crisis and the need of million of peoples of leave their land.

If European government use only words in front of the asylum of Turkish Kurdistan, if they are indifferent for the Erdogan's support to Isis, if they are crying crocodile tears for the Europeans who died with the attack of Paris and Bruxelles, if they tolerate that the PKK is still in the list of global terrorism, if in the name of fear they make the human body a commodity between states, if the neo-sultan can call the entry in European Union while he knock women, use the force against the dissent and the censorship with the press, in the end, if in front of all this there is no diplomatic breakdown of the relation between Italy and Turkey, this is the time that from below this breakdown is made. This is the time to not tolerate anymore this intolerable framework.

This is not a call to sign. A promoter to which agree. An area to join.

This is a call for action

On the first of May, in Rome, in front of Turkish Embassy.
