DEM VOLKE DIENEN

On October 10 Military and State Police, along side special forces, evicted the LCP led encampment Tiago dos Santos, ripping about 2.400 men, women and children from their homes and occupation. The action itself took place under a flimsy pretext and was carried out with brutal force and particularly with a high degree of white terror.

As in the previous year, there was an anti-colonial rally on Berlin Hermannplatz at October 10th. The focus was on the struggles of the oppressed people of Latin America, especially the indigenous population.

We document a photo, sent to us, of a graffiti in Berlin in solidarity with the fallen Turkish comrades Özgör and Asmin.

On September 30 the police laws in Baden Württemberg were again tightened. Since 2017 they are already some of the strictest in the FRG with the quasi endless detention for "dangerous persons" without ever having to prove a criminal offence.

Henceforth we publish a Statement issued by the Communist Party of Turkey / Marxist-Leninist Central Committees Politburo. It was first made publichere and can be found inFrench and Turkish.

While the state of emergency in France especially in the big cities Paris and Marseille is intensified again an e.g. many bars have to close again, the revolutionaries of the Jeunes Révolutionnaires cannot be stopped of continuing their work. So they did several actions, of which some will be reflected here:

Already at the end of September a young student took her life in Montpellier because her house should be evicted. Short time before CROUS, the owner of halls of residence in France, threaten her with eviction. That is not the first time a young person trying to kill himself out of desperation. Already last year a student attempted suicide after CROUS threaten with eviction. Their were many people at the demonstration and protested against the unstable living conditions of students.

Further there was a desk with information in Lyon where there were discussions with masses about the current situation and the state of emergency. Also flyers were handed out that denounced the schemes of the imperialists and the billions supports for enterprises while e.g. hospitals get no support. Further magazines were sold directly in front of the door to the masses by the comrades what is a great opportunity to get in contact with the masses during state of emergency.

Additionally there were actions to point to the exploitation of African countries by the French imperialism.

Also the comrades took part in a demonstration in Marseille of Armenian masses who protested against the aggression of Azerbaijan and Turkey in BERG-KARABACH.

Lastly there was a collectively organised meal with masses in Saint-Etienne for talking about current political issues as the yellow vests and the presence of police in the neighborhoods. The comrades write about this: “The discussions were numerous and every time was the conclusion the same: We need a revolution to destroy this capitalist system and to build a socialist society in which the working people will be in power!”

Around last weekend, further commemoration ceremonies of the TKP/ML took place in Europe in 21 cities in honor of the fallen Turkish comrades Nubar and Rosa. The actions in Hamburg and Cologne were carried out together with MLKP representatives in memory of MLKP commander Koray Aspir, who died on 28 August. In Hamburg, the event ended with a film screening, in Cologne, Maoist forces from the FRG also participated with a statement. In both places, there was a minute's silence at the beginning and musical contributions were made at the end.

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

Regarding the recent 28^th anniversary of Chairman Gonzalo‘s speech on the 24^th of September 1992, comrades from Scandinavia have published new translations of the Common International Declaration in Norwegian and Danish.
