DEM VOLKE DIENEN

While the struggles at Istanbul's Boğaziçi University continue with new violent physical clashes with the cops and new arrests every day, solidarity actions are taking place all over Turkey.

We hereby report on some developments in the political situation and the class struggle in the various Nordic Countries.

In the last weeks several actions were (suspected) carried out by the People´s Liberation Guerilla Army (PLGA) under the leadership of the Communist Party of India (Maoist) [CPI(Maoist)].

For months there have been protests all over France against the new security law, sometimes militant. Now thousands of people took to the streets again last weekend. Despite the fact that the controversial Article 24, which previously wanted to ban all filming of police officers at a demonstration, has now been "defused" and now "only" forbids filming with a mobile phone or camera with the intention of causing "physical or psychological" harm to the cop being filmed, the anger of the masses is not abating.

Finland
The comrades at Punalippu (Red Flag) report that in the city of Tampere, the anniversary of the Finnish Revolution of 1918 was commemorated with the Red Flag at the grave of the comrades and posters were seen in Tampere with the text “Long live Red Finland!” and “Death to White Finland!”

In the following we want to give a short brief on the recent actions, (suspected) carried out by the New People´s Army(NPA) on the Philippines.

After Angela Merkel offered the help of the army to the federal states, a massive additional contingent of soldiers will be deployed once again in Baden Württemberg, as in many other states.

In Baden Württemberg alone, up to 900 soldiers will be deployed across 68 missions. Some until the beginning of July and two of unlimited duration.
The gains the state wants to make from this are manifold:
-first, the Bundeswehr as compensation for the ailing health care system, since it was not considered necessary to take care of the health care system even since the beginning of the pandemic. Here the Bundeswehr, there some state of emergency, all mobilizations to temporarily cope with the next challenge. The German state is not at all in a position to guarantee adequate health care for the population.
-Secondly, the reputation of the Bundeswehr is to be raised again. It should be seen as a helper. As if that would make up for the fact that it murders abroad for the economic interests of the imperialists.
-third, the deployment of the Bundeswehr in the interior is normalized. The masses are gradually accustomed to ever greater presence in order to normalize the state of emergency and keep down rebellion against it.
-fourth, the armed forces of the German imperialists take on informer tasks, in this case contact surveillance "in the sense of fighting the pandemic." In this way, the Bundeswehr takes on areas in which it has no business and gains access to data that is otherwise denied to them for good reason.
No matter how "reasonable" the stated reason may seem at first: we don't need soldiers on the streets, but more nursing staff and a health care system that serves us and not the bosses.
