On January 11, the UCL responded to the Kurdish women's movement's call for a large demonstration in Paris, to demand all the light on the
assassination, in 2013, of three revolutionary activists: Leyla, Sakinê and Rojbîn. ---- For years, thousands of people converge on Paris
from all over France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland... They march for truth and justice, but also to remind that a people is fighting for
freedom and dignity. And that this struggle has resulted, in Syrian Kurdistan, in a revolutionary, federalist and anti-patriarchal
experience that has impressed the whole world. ---- Faced with the great dangers that have threatened Rojava since the Turkish invasion and
the return of the Damascus regime to the vans of the Russian army, the UCL had called on the French social movement to be more present than
usual. This could not have been the case due to the historic strikes that swept through France this winter, and captured all the attention.

Heavily disrupted trains, partially blocked metro ... the mobilization of the Kurdish diaspora was partially hampered, since it attracted
around 5,000 people, whereas it was able to reach 10,000 in previous years.

A beautiful red and black appearance
For its part, the UCL was there, as promised, in a red and black pole which did not bring together the 300 people expected, but still 150,
for a very dynamic march, on a feminist note, internationalist and libertarian, behind two magnificent banners made for the occasion.

On arrival, during a large outdoor meeting, several Kurdish and French organizations (LFI, PCF, NPA, EELV, UCL) spoke. "If Erdogan is a
megalomaniac, he is not eternal," said the UCL in his speech , criticizing his deadly military expeditions to Turkey, Syria, and now Libya.
And to conclude: "Solidarity with confederal and democratic Rojava is a moral and political duty for all sincere anti-colonialists,
libertarians, feminists, unionists, revolutionaries."

Address by UCL at the meeting gallery
comrades

Like every year, the libertarian communists are by your side. We are by your side to demand truth and justice for Fidan, for Leyla, for Sakîne.

Seven years of impunity, seven years of silence from the French state. Everything points to the hand of the Turkish secret services in this
triple assassination. And yet the French state is silent. The French state prefers to flatter Erdogan, in the hope of signing contracts and
reconciling Ankara with NATO. Last June, he did not hesitate to repress the Kurdish militants, here, on French territory, in the name of an
alleged anti-terrorism. Anti-terrorism ? We think we are dreaming. On the contrary, we demand that the PKK be removed from the list of
terrorist organizations. We demand the release of Abdullah Öcalan, Selahattin Demirtas and all political prisoners. The situation of the
Kurdish people is scandalous.

And yet comrades, hope remains. Because if Erdogan is a megalomaniac, he is not eternal. His diet is more fragile than it seems. The
population in Turkey is getting more and more tired of him. His American and Russian partners despise him. He multiplies military
expeditions, but he does not know how to get out.
Since 2011, in Syria ;
In 2018: against Afrîn, with the endorsement of Poutine ;
In 2019: against the Djézirê, with Trump's approval ;
In 2020: he even sends the Turkish army to Libya !

Let's put it bluntly: this headlong rush feels the end of the reign. The end of the reign of one who takes himself for a new sultan.

But Erdogan is not the only enemy to be killed. People everywhere no longer want these tyrannical, racist and corrupt regimes. From Algeria
to Yemen, Sudan, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, people want freedom.

This freedom will not be brought to them by the Russian, American or European imperialists. On the contrary, because their interventions
only consolidate the regimes in place. This freedom, the people will gain it by the revolution and by an autonomous struggle.

And in this fight, Rojava has a role to play. It has a role to play provided that it remains proud and upright in the face of Bashar el
Assad, his spies, his police, his torturers.

This is why solidarity with confederal and democratic Rojava is a duty. It is a moral and political duty for all sincere anti-colonialists,
libertarians, feminists, trade unionists, revolutionaries. And that is why we are with you today.

Long live the peoples' struggle for their freedom !
Against imperialist calculations !
Against all tyrants !
Long live free Syria, live free Kurdistan, long live the revolution !

A little context: Tamaki Makaurau anarchists are excited to host the first of all (as far as we know!) Anarchist Book Fair at Tâmaki
Makaurau, on March 27th and 28th, at Mount Albert War Memorial Hall! We will have almost 20 workshops and lectures, tents, childcare, food
and, of course, books. Possible topics range from parental anarchism to new forms of unionism, alternative media, reproduction theater and
bad rakau! ---- We need your help ---- We would like to have as many people as possible here for the book fair and make it the best event
possible! For that, we need money. We are already planning to fly some comrades from Dunedin to the fair and we are currently in discussion
with some anarchists in Australia, Indonesia and the United States to see if we can help them to come. Any funds we raise will help us do that.

Where does the money go?

Everything will go to help first and foremost the anarchists in Aotearoa to get here, then for the anarchists abroad (if you are a speaker,
we will probably try to work with other organizations for a tour, so that the cost is distributed between groups). Any remaining funds will
be used to cover our fixed costs for the day (location, food, equipment rental, etc.)

You can join us

We hope to add $ 2,500 (2,250 euros, 10,275 reais) to make this a spectacular event, although we recognize that this may be optimistic!
Everything we can do will help us to make Tamaki's first anarchist book fair a great success.

Or the reasons why we will continue to campaign against the MWC. ---- Let's not deny that the departure of the MWC has left us momentarily
unfocused, but in fact we are the same as before: ---- -The ICT techno-industrial system continues its extractive practices and sweeps the
earth. ---- -He continues to produce his gadgets by oppressing workers, polluting the air, water and sun. ---- -Mobile technologies continue
to extend social control to a level unknown so far. ---- -Mobile technologies destroy personal relationships, direct communication and
natural social groups. ---- -The "new economy" based on ICTs precurses relationships at work, at home and increasingly becomes consumers /
merchandise.
We oppose the society that makes all this possible, the negative impact on the city of Barcelona is not the most important impact, the
impact of mobile technologies goes from the miners of the Congo and Bolivia, the destruction of adjacent lands, to assemblers in East Asia,
through the victims of Globo and Amazon. Then we will continue with what we have planned, and if it is possible we will do more !!.

WITH CAPITALISM AND STATES THE DEVASTATION IS INEVITABLE.

Anarchist Group Amsterdam and Joe's Garage collective are organizing two events in Amsterdam in solidarity with protests in Chile. ----
Chile is one of the wealthiest and unequal countries in Latin America at the same time. 1% of the population in Chile controls 26.5% of the
country's wealth, while 50% of low-income households access 2.1%. ---- Despite this fact, in October 2019 the Chilean government decided to
increase public transport fares by 4% ignoring its social significance. It led to the protests and the biggest civil unrest having occurred
in Chile since the end of Augusto Pinochet's military dictatorship. People's demands quickly grew from keeping public transport fares to
more broad anti-neoliberal claims. The government replied with Excessive use of force. As of 26 October, 19 people have died, nearly 2,500
have been injured, and 2,840 have been arrested. Human rights organizations have received several reports of violations conducted against
protesters, including torture, sexual abuse, and rape. According to Amnesty International, "the intention of the Chilean security forces is
clear: to injure demonstrators in order to discourage protest.". In fact, they didn't succeed and protests are still happening until the
present day.

To learn more about events happening in Chile and express your solidarity please come to our events:

Saturday, February 22, 18:00, Bollox, Eerste Schinkel­straat 14-16, Amsterdam - info talk from Chile/Belgian collective
Sunday, March 1, Joe's Garage, Pretoriusstraat 43, Amsterdam - food and movie night

First of all, thank you for accepting our invitation for an interview. Since you live in Afghanistan, we wanted to find out more about the
situation of people in geography in Afghanistan through this interview. ---- 2. What is the status of bookstores and reading in Afghanistan,
and are any books available for purchase, even anarchist or communist? ---- Greetings to all the anarchists of the world first and then
greetings full of passion and love to the doomed world...!---- If we talk about studying in Afghanistan, it's going to be a long topic
because it has to explain the root cause of studying in Afghanistan, it's a good colonial country, and American imperialism also has
different ways of closing its hands to seize a country. And it has a stake in that country so that it cannot save itself. In addition, it
can also be said to undermine the country's science and knowledge base. In Afghanistan, too, the bad situation that prevails does not allow
everyone to learn because schools are burned in remote areas, their teachers are threatened with death or even killed, and some of
Afghanistan's most famous cities remain... Well, as I mentioned above. Today, imperialism is directly controlling and severely controlling
our economy and our politics. Similarly in the cultural sector, we have also been hit hard. Young people who are promising or displaced by
the country's future, some are losing their lives in the military service of the government, and others are having fun, looking for dollars
and new technology tools (new mobile phones, The cars are... and their intelligence and thinking are just the same issues. According to
another study in Afghanistan, his legs are bent. Well, I only see the center of the country (Kabul), which has very few libraries equipped
with credible political books. Of course anarchist books are scarce, but Communist is far more than that. Generally speaking, whether it is
libraries or the press ... it is necessarily advocated by a self-proclaimed or submissionist, so it is not in the interests of the people to
expect human books. Of course anarchist books are scarce, but Communist is far more than that. Generally speaking, whether it is libraries

What is the economic situation of the people and the poverty line in Afghanistan?

The economic situation in Afghanistan is in a state of disrepair, more than 5% of Afghans are in poor economic condition, and are living
below the poverty line. The government has not done anything to reduce poverty. People are wracked by poverty, hunger and unemployment.
Workers spend the mornings on crossroads selling their physical strength, and mothers have to beg, and children who have to work in their
childish world are engaged in chores and work on their small bodies to work for their families. Find their own bread crumb. People just want
change.

What are the general problems of the Afghan people?

Although I have mentioned both the above questions about the problems of the Afghan people, I would like to reiterate that the Afghan people
have nothing to live for... Nothing to live for. From economic problems to security, education, unemployment, violence, oppression....

We know that we still lack an anarchist crime in Afghanistan and are currently witnessing the presence of anarchist activists in Afghanistan
and abroad, but what can be done to expand and streamline it?

Just before I became acquainted with the Union and my anarchist allies, I felt that the anarchists in the whole world were scarce to reach
Afghanistan ... but when I came across your page (the age of anarchism) and then followed up with our partners He was with one or two Afghan
anarchists .. I was so amazed and excited that Oh!! We are a great force on the world stage. When I found out that there was anarchist in
Afghanistan besides myself, I was happy, but not enough to build a movement ... but it needed all the hard work and determination. So it's
up to us to expand our power. Of course with your awareness and action. What can be said, it can be said that today in the virtual world is
not so familiar with people in society. Because the most popular networks are these virtual networks. So that we can increase our activity
on the virtual pages and thus in the community itself, people exchange ideas in our work areas and find a place for our thoughts. Well, I
have some decisions that can be made if we have at least ten people in one city. For example, street protests, street theaters and slogans
on city walls...

2. In what ways are people in Afghanistan and abroad familiar with anarchism? How did you get to know anarchism in Afghanistan?

Well, honestly I'm not aware from the outside and still can't answer the anarchists in Afghanistan at all, but I can say for myself: I have
never heard from a school, university, media or even a single person, just for The first time I was in a class of eleven I read an article
about it, they were completely opposed to it, introducing a wild, disordered group and, worst of all, saying that anarchists harm the
populace and cause destruction of the city. . I didn't even follow up with this convincing article because I was a Communist, so it didn't
matter to me, but unaware that I was an anarchist myself ... Four years later I realized that I was opposed to some communist issues, and I
was cranky. It does not fit in with an absolute Communist, so this situation made me very effective and made me find myself searching for
what I wanted to fight when I wanted to destroy my rulers, so who am I? That doesn't fit in any format. It was then that after a bit of
personal effort through the world of the Internet (sites and Google) I was able to get acquainted with the word again but deeply rooted in
anarchism. I was in the class of three universities and I was 5 years old, and I encountered anarchism at the center of terrorists (ISIS and
Taleb) ... It was strange and so heartwarming to feel completely at ease with every single sentence that I rejected. It was strange to me,
for the first time when I realized that I was an anarchist and really made myself a human being, and then I became anarchists in my own
endeavor to finally meet you, my dear fellow, after two years, many are happy to be anarchist today Ha ... I was in the class of three
universities and I was 5 years old, and I encountered anarchism at the center of the terrorists (ISIS and Taleb) ... It was strange and so

Why do you think there are a significant number of anarchists in Afghanistan and abroad, and how can these artists play a role in spreading
anarchism in Afghanistan and transforming it into a social movement?

Because people who are artists, whether they are singers, painters, poets or musicians... are at the same level with sociologists and
naturalists as ordinary people. An artist is able to convey that story with all its aspects, quite differently, from an ordinary person to
an artist's viewpoint, and to the viewer, and to the viewer. It can be brought about by the same art. So it is the artists who realize the
shortcomings and deprivations of society ahead of the ordinary people. And they are convinced of his change. But ordinary people are afraid
of change or consider it a fabulous myth. And more importantly, individual artists are one step ahead of other people in society. Most of
all, they want the development of societies. Well, I mentioned above that only awareness can bring others together, and it becomes a movement.

February 22-29, we announce the international week of solidarity with anti-fascists and anarchists persecuted in Russia. These days, we urge
expressing support for the defendants in the Network case and protesting the prison system, as well as disseminating information about
torture used as a tool of repression in Russia. ---- Why now? On February 10, at 630 kilometers from Moscow, a court in Penza convicted
seven people accused of organizing the so-called "Network anarchist terrorist community." The whole case is based on confessions extorted
from the accused by cruel torture, weapons planted and an extremely weak accusation that they "plan to plan terrorist acts to overthrow the
Russian government." Sentences for a "crime" without victims, without any real actions and a real plan, are shocking. Dmitry Pchelintsev and
Ilya Shakursky, called the organizers of this fabricated "Network", were sentenced to 18 years and 16 years in a strict regime colony,
respectively. Others were convicted of "participation" in the terrorist community: Arman Sagynbayev - 6 years old, Andrei Chernov - 14 years
old, Vasily Kuksov - 9 years old, Mikhail Kulkov - 10 years,

Scientists, journalists, human rights activists and other professional groups in Russia are protesting and demanding the annulment of the
sentence.

International solidarity is especially important at the moment, because the "Network business" is not yet complete. In St. Petersburg, two
more people, Viktor Filinkov and Julian Boyarshinov, are awaiting trial on the same charges. The next court hearings are scheduled for
February 25-28. That is why we are asking for solidarity action in the last week of February.

Many other anarchists and anti-fascists in Russia are subjected to repression and torture, including Azat Miftakhov, Ilya Romanov, Yegor
Lesnykh, Evgeny Karakashev, Ekaterina Muranova and Kirill Kuzminkin. They also deserve our attention.

If you are outside of Russia and there is a consulate or an embassy of the Russian Federation in your city, consider holding something close
to them.

Send stock reports to email - rupression@protonmail.com , Telegram @RUPRESSION_bot or to Rupression's social networks.

We will inform prisoners of all acts of solidarity.

More information about the Network case, including help details and email addresses: rupression.com

YOUR TORTURE WILL NOT KILL OUR IDEAS!
