CATALONIA --- For all those who are suffering the situation in Turkey | Catalan Assembly
As
we watch events unfold with our continental and Mediterranean
neighbours, we consider that it is our responsibility to once again
vigorously emphasize our deepest commitment to human rights and
democracy.
We condemn and reject those who
undermine the public trust, those who do not respect fundamental
freedoms and rights, and those who demolish the pillars of democracy.
Monday marked the 80th anniversary of a
coup d’etat in the Spanish State, the horrors and consequences of which
are particularly present this week, and which we hope others can learn
from and avoid. To the same extent, we reject the terrible consequences
following the loss of fundamental freedoms, and therefore condemn the
temporary suspension of the European Convention on Human Rights
announced by the Turkish Government.
To all those who are suffering the situation in Turkey
we keep you in our thoughts
