Solidarity in Berlin with protest movements in the Middle East and North Africa

Around 150 people took part in a rally in Berlin Neukölln to show solidarity with various younger and older protest movements in the Middle East and North Africa.

Speakers supported not only the long-standing movements in Kurdish and Palestinian territories, but also the eight-year revolution in Syria against the Bashar al-Assad regime, as well as the recent uprisings in Iraq and Lebanon. As well as the recent mass protests in Iran against the regime in Tehran. Supporters of Algerian freedom movements and Turkish opposition members were also present.

For the people in the affected countries and areas, freedom and respect for human rights, as well as a right to self-determination were demanded.
