Thousands of people take to the streets in the Basque Country for Palestine
Following strikes throughout Hego Euskal Herria throughout the morning and major mobilizations in the capitals, the cry for Palestine has also spread throughout the afternoon to many villages. Convened by the Gernika-Palestine popular initiative, thousands of people have gathered to condemn the Israeli occupation and demand justice for Gaza.
The rallies have taken place from people to people, amid the noise of pots, and have denounced the situation in Gaza , while reaffirming the solidarity of the Basque people.
During the protests, the organizers read a statement denouncing the genocide suffered by the Palestinian people and calling on the international community to guarantee the right of the Palestinians to live freely.
"The world must ensure that the right to freedom is respected," they say. They also recall that some 10,000 Palestinians arestill in prison and that genocide is not over despite diplomatic agreements. "Genocide is in force in every gesture, even in clowns staged alongside international diplomacy." In this regard, they stress that the UN has insisted that genocide "goes on for a long time. "
According to the organizers, maintaining solidarity and social mobilization is essential. "We must continue to support and love Palestine with all our might," they say, warning that we must continue to talk about Palestine in order to "eradicate the risk of remaining in the background."
They havealso proclaimed the need to isolate Israel in all areas, diplomatic, commercial, cultural and sporting, "until the end of occupation, apartheid and illegal colonies on Palestinian soil".
They have highlighted the role played by Euskal Herria at the forefront of solidarity, stressing that it is "a model for the whole world", although they have acknowledged that further stepsare still "essential".
That is why they have called for increasing humanitarian aid, reducing military pressure and protecting the most vulnerable sectors of Gaza and the West Bank.
"We will complete the Basque commitment, people to people and day to day," they have announced. "It is up to us to make commitments because it is time for everyone to do what they can to protect Palestine."
