For a Maghreb of human rights, and for supporting the revolt
People's Tunisian and Algerian
event scheduled Saturday, January 15 2011 at 16h, Place Kleber
A social movement on a grand scale shakes Tunisia, for nearly a month, and Algeria for over a week. Although the situation in both countries differs in several respects (power structures, economic policy, scope and duration of the current movement, the extent of repression and unique number of its victims, etc..), The causes of discontent behind this movement are similar: failure of government policies in place for decades, massive unemployment young, rising prices, deteriorating living conditions, lack of freedom, refusing to take into account the aspirations of democratic society, corruption, raiding the national wealth appropriated by clans and families close to power. These ills plaguing both countries are targets of the current movement.
The strategy of these governments is clear: to criminalize social protest movements and political then pretend to play the role as the ultimate bulwark against disorder caused and maintained by the regime itself.
Faced with the complicit silence of European governments, we, the undersigned, call on all justice-loving Democrats and to rally and show their solidarity and support the legitimate demands of the people of Tunisia and Algeria to live in peace, dignity and freedom.
- To express our solidarity with the struggles of peoples of Tunisia and Algeria to work, freedom, dignity and democracy,
- p o require Tunisian and Algerian authorities taking into account the legitimate demands of their populations, a better "distribution of wealth," "the end of corruption and nepotism,"
- the release of all Those arrested in connection with this movement and the pursuit of those responsible for repression,
- to ask the French and European authorities to require the Tunisian and Algerian governments to honor their international commitments on human rights and take into account the legitimate aspirations their societies.
