"It is by millions that the Syrians fleeing the massacres, the destruction of the country,
poverty and dispossession ... The savagery in Daech adds in this tragedy. It should not be
forgotten that the regime continues. This is why the fight to end Assad and his regime
remains perfectly legitimate." ---- Since January, over 3,000 refugees died on the roads
of exile, trying to reach Europe. These men, these women, these children, after suffering
multiple violence (war, bombing, torture, ...), in their home country and during their
chaotic migration routes, face the "walls" of legislation and devices EU: Dublin
Regulation, Surveillance and Control Agency Borders (Frontex) ... ---- In these devices,
involving the French and German Governments are added features of national states. In
France, the government has left in place the restrictive policies of welcome and asylum
taken earlier (especially by Sarkozy).
In addition, new laws (law on asylum, immigration law the Act) on condition of
improvements regarding residence, perpetuate or even worsen the precariousness of persons
in a regular situation. These texts provide further accentuate the hunt for foreigners and
monitoring of the population in particular allowing the prefecture to consult at any time,
the number of organizations data (schools and higher education, Social Security, post
office, banks ... )
The governments of our countries have a major responsibility in this mass exodus of
refugees more or less hidden political support and arms sales to dictators who crush their
peoples, let alone military intervention and economic plunder. As for Syria, where today
overwhelmingly affluent refugees, the US and European governments have opted for 4 years
to let the situation deteriorate. Bashar al-Assad can therefore, for 4 years, with its
military and police torturing and massacring the population daily.

It is by millions that the Syrians fleeing the massacres, the destruction of the country,
poverty and dispossession ... The savagery in Daech added in the tragedy suffered by the
Syrian people. It should not be forgotten that the regime continues, with the aim of
annihilating the resistance of a people who rose up against more than forty years of
dictatorship. This why the fight to end Assad and his regime remains perfectly legitimate.
Hollande announced the extension of Syria bombings against French Daech, hitherto confined
to Iraq. What relationship with the refugee issue? How useful while American bombing
proved ineffective to stop Daech? While the military control of Assad Syrian sky, does not
he implique- a collaboration between the French army and Assad's army?
Beyond the media posturing, is it to prepare a strategic change in French policy? To waive
the requirement to end Assad and recognize as an indispensable interlocutor. It demanded
long and increasingly strong number of votes at international level and in France ...
At the same time, it leaves the Erdogan government to intensify its war against the Kurds,
though the front line facing Daech ... We must deplore the lack of solidarity of the
international labor movement, which should be first in line to bring assistance to the
Syrian people, and other peoples of the region who are disenfranchised. This weighs
heavily in isolation of these peoples fighting against dictatorships, wars and misery ...
This solidarity is more than ever necessary and urgent, as is also the reception in France
of all refugees who so request: a welcome worthy of the name, permanent (regularization),
free from surveillance. This implies to denounce and to impose an end to the violence
perpetrated in France (sorting procedures, administrative retention, population
monitoring, expulsion, etc.) and fight the laws that permit.
We must do away with Frontex, the Dublin system and all foreign laws that hinder freedom
of movement.
