FDA - IFA: LAVA MUC - CALL FOR SOLIDARITY FOR HUNGERSTRIKERS
IN PYHÄJOKI, FINLAND! (a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)
UPDATE 23.9.15 at 2330. The protestor in the tree house has been taken down by the police
on the evening of 23.9.15. All the hunger strikes have been ended now. The struggle
against Fennovoima continues! The ex-hunger striker in the tree house seems to been in
good condition and health relative to the circumstance. ---- Anti-nuclear struggle
continues in Pyhäjoki, Finland. The Hanhikivi anti-nuclear camp was almost evicted last
week, 15th of September, but the cops left one person in a tree hut. Some people started a
new camp just next to the construction site, in a cottage which had been a second base of
the camp until now. Isolating the person in a tree led to hunger strike of 5 people. ----
Nuclear power company Fennovoima doesn't allow activists to bring vital supplies to the
person in the tree. He has been out of food since saturday 19th of September. In this
situation he started a hunger strike demanding to get food, more warm clothes and other
needed supplies Monday 21th. Four more people started a solidarity hunger strike with the
same demands. Three of the support strikers are camping next to the Fennovoima office in
Pyhäjoki centrum and one in Helsinki.
The order to deny all entry to the area is given by the Fennovoima's construction manager
Jouni Sipiläinen and the Oulu police head is loyal to their friend, despite the fact, that
actually there doesn't exist legal prohibition of trespassing at the area yet.
We, supporters of the hungerstrikers are really concerned especially about the condition
of the person protesting in a treehut. The person has stayed there one week. The weather
is cold, rainy and windy, situation in the area is very stressful because of big amount of
private security guards, who don't let supporters inside the area. Situation of the
protester is hard.
We strongly ask you for solidarity actions and sharing of information! For example your
local Finnish Embassy and Russian Embassy would be a good place to do protest and actions.
Fennovoima company is partly owned by Finland state. Fennovoima has made plant supplier
contracts with Rusatom Overseas, which is a subsidiary of the Russian State Atomic Energy
Corporation Rosatom.
