Freedom to the Red Aid Belgium members!

The attacks of the world bourgeoisie against revolutionaries and communists never stop. Those who struggle for their rights, those who conduct a legitimate fight for a world without exploitation and without classes and those who show solidarity with the ones that struggle are being arrested and exposed to all kinds of repression. As in all countries of the world, the European countries that present themselves as freedom defenders and democrats also implement the same methods.

On June 5 in the morning, 10 houses were raided by the police forces with heavy guns in Belgium and French and 5 people were arrested. As a result of this attack against the Red Aid Belgium and Marxist Leninist Bloc, Bertrand Sassoye and Piere Carette, ex-militants of the CCC, were arrested as well. Bertrand Sassoye is also a member of the International Secretariat of the International Red Aid and he is active in the field of solidarity with political prisoners in this context. The accusation against him is to have contravened the orders of the conditional discharge and to have contacts with the revolutionaries that were arrested in Italia last year on 12 February. Through these attacks, the ruling politically active people are wanted to be intimidated, put in silence and put behind bars under poor arguments.

This attack against Red Aid Belgium is also an attack against international solidarity as a whole. The ruling ones know that they are helpless in face of our united power. For this reason, they try to divide our forces and to repress all kinds of struggle for solidarity. But we know the power of international solidarity and we will use it.

Our Party calls upon all progressive, revolutionary and communist forces to show an active stance through protest actions and statements against the arrest of 5 comrades and to demand the immediate and unconditional freedom of them.

Freedom to 5 comrades arrested in Brussels and Paris!
