🇵🇸✊️ Statement in solidarity with Palestinagård, made outside the SU principal’s office earlier today in response to the violent police crackdown of their encampment. But as we all know, the students, united, will never be defeated. So let’s keep on fighting, because we will not stop until our demands are met!
~ STATEMENT IN ENGLISH ~
In the last two days, the Swedish police have escalated the violence against the peaceful student protests around Sweden.
Yesterday at KTH, a peaceful protest by students was met by physical violence by the police.
For example, police dogs were let loose on the students. Some who were not masked at all, were arrested for breaking the law against mask-wearing.
They were pushed, they were shoved. It was brutal police violence against peaceful students.
Early this morning, when the students at Lund University were sleeping, the police came in and gave them only 20 minutes to pack up their stuff and leave.
In the last hours, the students have been subjected to brutal police violence in the form of kicks, and batons struck against their heads.
Right now, our friends in Lund are hurt, and ambulance is prevented to arrive due to the police crackdown.
We stand in solidarity with our friends in Lund. We now call on everyone to join the fight against genocide, and against police violence.🇵🇸
