quick translation:
Blockage of the Italian delegation, 5 arrests
The migrants and supporters who are participating in the Caravan of
sans-papiers and refugees, established since 20 June in Parc
Maximilien [Brussels], denounce the blockage of the Italian delegation
by the French custom authorities at Chamonix-Mont-Blanc as well as the
arrest of 5 members of the group.
Having been pushed back by Swiss customs, the delegation which is
heading to Brussels decided to cross the Italian-French border. It was
there that the French authorities decided in an arbitrary manner to
refuse the passage of the delegation. They also arrested 5 members of
the delegation because of non-confirming ID papers.
We demand the immediate release of our arrested comrades!
We demand that France allows the Italian delegation to continue on its
journey!
All the European political authorities have been informed. We demand
that the European authorities do everything possible to allow the
Caravan to demonstrate its legitimate demands in the European capital.
The attitude of Switzerland and France shows a reality: the permanent
denial of freedom of movement and at the same time the denial of the
right to exercise fundamental rights. With this action, they are
trying to silence the right of expression and demonstration which is
contained in all European legislation. We believe that this is a sign
of Fortress Europe silencing its citizens who oppose its policies.
But our comrades are determined to come to Brussels. It is their
legitimate right and they are determined to exercise it.
Borders do not silence us! Freedom of movement and settlement!
A solidarity action is being prepared. Info to follow.
