(en) France, Coordination of Anarchist Groups - Solidarity with the Kurdish resistance Koban? (fr, pt)

Koban? is one of three districts of the Syrian Kurdish area, which sustains a democratic 
alternative to whatever project is being done in the Middle East. ---- Kurdish revolution 
allowed in areas under its control, the construction of a civil organization in which each 
minority, whether ethnic, religious or sexual, develop autonomy in respect of its 
identity. ---- For several weeks, the city of Koban?, gathering hundreds of thousands of 
refugees, is besieged by the fascists of the "Islamic state." ---- If Koban? falls, there 
are hundreds of thousands of people at risk the massacre because they belong to religious 
minorities (Yezidi, Shiite, Christian) or because they are Kurdish, Armenian ... ---- The 
seat is facilitated Koban? by the Turkish state, which sees a way to carry out its dirty 
war against the Kurds.

Kurdish resistance, composed of men and women, is isolated face Daesh.
We denounce the hypocrisy of Western states including France, who continue to see the PKK 
/ PYD as a "terrorist organization", while the Kurdish confederation the Rojava is the 
main force on the ground to Daesh.

We call on all progressive to require:

? arms for Kurdish resistance and solidarity with Koban? all progressive withdrawal of 
the PKK terrorist organization in the EU recognition of a status for free and autonomous 
Rojava

Stop the massacres of Rojava!
