From Chiapas to Kurdistan: Solidarity with resistance in Northern and Eastern Syria

From Chiapas to Kurdistan: Solidarity with the resistance of the revolution in northern and eastern Syria

On 13 December, at the Sendas cultural center in San Cristobal de las Casas (Chiapas), about thirty people gathered to hear about the latest developments in Syria and Rojava.

The presentation put into context the revolution in Rojava and the democratic, ecological and women's liberation project within the framework of the struggle for the liberation of Kurdistan and the expansion of Democratic Confederalism as a solution to the crisis in the Middle East.

The latest developments in Syria were analyzed, presenting the international, regional and local actors and unmasking the jihadist groups that the Western media are trying to whitewash, such as HTS and its leader Jolani.

The neo-Ottomanist plans of Turkey and its expansion in the north and east of Syria to destroy the democratic project of DAANES were also discussed, as well as the atrocities, kidnappings, killings, looting and humiliations that the populations are suffering since the invasion of SNA/Turkey in Shehba, Tall Rifaat and Manbij. Particular emphasis was placed on the humanitarian crisis of the 120,000 displaced people who have arrived from these regions and the urgent need for financial support to the NGO on the ground, the Kurdistan Red Crescent.

There was also a video, sent directly from Rojava from one of the colleagues of the area of diplomacy and relations of Kongra Star, calling for internationalist solidarity from Abya Yala with Rojava and the north and east of Syria, calling for women and peoples in resistance to raise their voices in defense of the women's revolution in Rojava and the democratic and multiethnic project of DAANES.

Finally a video of solidarity with the resistance of the SDF/YPG/YPJ was made with all the participants, as well as we will seek to continue the internationalist solidarity with the peoples of northern and eastern Syria.
