France, Alternative Libertaire AL Communicate - Aced with
refugee-es, the government confuses humanitarian and security
(fr, it, pt) [machine translation] (a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)
"Certainly, buses had been chartered to allow movement of réfugié.es, but dozens CRS
trucks were also on hand... in case. The choice left to réfugié.es was simple: either they
accept the accommodation offered by the city, or they were forcibly expelled from their
encampment." ---- The mayor of Paris and the Interior Ministry flatter, in a statement
released Friday, June 19 , a "humanitarian operation [which] took place in excellent
conditions " to gardens of Aeolus in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, which had settled
the last few days who had been expelled réfugié.es-es of the Chapel Bridge Tuesday, June 2
---- What they fail to point out is that this evacuation, obediently accompanied by the
French Office for the Protection of Refugees and Stateless Ofrpa) and by associations
France Terre d'Asile and Emmaus (which does not even take the trouble to warn other
associations invested in supporting migrants and migrants...), was carried out under
police pressure.
Certainly buses had been chartered to allow movement of réfugié.es, but dozens CRS trucks
were also on hand... in case. The choice left to réfugié.es was simple: either they accept
the accommodation offered by the city, or they were forcibly expelled from their encampment.
In these circumstances, public authorities have a field to claim that migrants "have
accepted rehousing offers in 6 accommodations in Paris and the Paris region."
These accommodations are well known, this is emergency accommodation centers dedicated to
the homeless and allowing individual control of réfugié.es which, undergoing double
blackmail of accommodation and asylum, have choice but to waive any collective struggle.
The migrants and migrants who have not been moved for their part tried to settle in a gym
that nobody occupies the night, but many police were immediately deployed to end this
violent occupation. This is a clear political choice as the pretext for the unhealthiness
this time can not be invoked.
Shamelessly, Bernard Cazeneuve Anne Hidalgo and finally dare to claim that "the government
is firmly committed to the sheltering of those who were thrown on the roads of the exodus
by persecution they suffered."
What they again fail to remember is that the accommodation offered today have been granted
and taxed after two weeks of stalking and struggle, during which were successively
réfugié.es évacué.es , frappé.es, gazé.es, déplacé.es, expulsé.es, repoussé.es,
encerclé.es or just ignoré.es.
At the same time, migrants and migrants trying to cross the French-Italian border are
systematically repressed by our politicians who, paralyzed by the extreme right, refuse to
welcome on French soil of réfugié.es fleeing war and misery. For fear of sounding too
human and wipe foul critics of the National Front, an allegedly socialist government
prefers to deploy its police as soon as looming shadow of a refugee.
Faced with this indecent hypocrisy, Alternative Libertaire stands more than ever open
borders and freedom of movement and installation migrants and migrants.
