Labour Youth: The streets are rising, we won’t be silent!

The Labour Youth of Turkey made a statement on the latest developments and demonstration in several countries. The statement by the Labour Youth is as follows:

Ecuador, the country where the government has signed an agreement with the IMF for a loan of 10 billion dollars, increased working hours while reducing wages, opened debt relief for capitalists, raised the prices of necessary goods, initiated tax increases and condemned youth to unemployment.

The abolition of subsidies from fuel was the last straw for the public. The strike initiated by transport workers expanded after the participation of other workers and students; therefore, it spread throughout the country.

Although President Moreno called the state of emergency, the people did not step back and the government had to move from the capital city!

The more the police brutality increased; The more objection people strengthen. As a result, the government had to withdraw its decisions! The people of Ecuador won the fight for their demands!

"CHILE HAS AWAKENED"

Chile, the country where flexible work becomes so frequent, wages are decreasing while the unemployment rate is rising, the retirement pension cannot pay living expenses and government corruption is revealed.

The drop that filled the glass was the increase in the transport rate; the students began to protest occupying the subway. After the support of the unions and the workers, people took to the streets to protest throughout the country.

Police brutality increased day by day, but the people of Chile did not withdraw from the fight. Thousands of Chilean citizens are singing "Chile has woken up" in the squares. The unions organize and call the general strike.

"WE WILL NOT RETURN TO YOUR HOUSE UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT FALLS"

Lebanon, the country where national foreign debts are high, is experiencing a decline in production, inflation and unemployment are on the rise and the government is raising property prices and tax rates through the "state of economic emergency ". The WhatsApp tax was the turning point of the tolerance of the Lebanese people. Two billion citizens have gathered in Beirut and chanted "people demand the fall of the regime"! People came to the streets across the country.

The government had to cancel the WhatsApp tax decision! Now, the Lebanese declare that "they will not return to their homes until the government falls" in the squares.

"WE DEFEND THE RIGHT TO SELF-DETERMINATION"

Catalonia, the country that resides in the surroundings of the capital, Barcelona, ​​where nine independent Catalan politicians were sentenced to between 9 and 13 years in prison. The protests started in Catalonia now take place throughout Spain. Billions of people continue to sing "the referendum is not a crime and we defend the right to self-determination" in the streets.

The people of Algeria, Sudan, Iraq and Azerbaijan are in the streets of their countries for days. They resist not bearing the burden of the economic crisis.

'State of emergency', 'economic adjustment measures of the belt', 'tax increases',' increase in the prices of public services', 'high youth unemployment rates',' education expenses', 'relief of debt to the capitalists', 'anti-democratic policies' ... Turkey's youth is also familiar with all these policies!

In the same way, we face an increasingly deep economic crisis whose impacts on our lives become more serious.

Imperialist capitalism is making life impossible for young people around the world to live while hiding the future. The future of the world's youth is confiscated due to the burden of economic crises. We have to unite, fight and organize now, for our future. Any victory against capitalism will be ours, also of the youth of Turkey. Therefore, we are on the side of our friends who were on the rise against the impositions of the system in Chile, Lebanon, Ecuador, Iraq and Azerbaijan!

As Labour Youth, we welcome the struggle of our friends who continue their protest in the streets, in their schools and on campus for days.

We call on the youth of Turkey to join, fight and organize for our own future.” (EVRENSEL DAILY)
