The long march of the Kurdish internationalist youth movement for the freedom of Abdullah Öcalan and a political solution to the Kurdish question was concluded on Friday in Duisburg. The participants have been walking through North Rhine-Westphalia since Monday to draw attention to the isolation of Öcalan in Turkish custody and his importance for a democratic solution. The march started in Bielefeld and continued through Hamm, Dortmund and Essen.
The last stage of the five-day demonstration was also met with enthusiasm despite provocations. The young activists met in the morning at the Marxloh-Pollmann stop and delivered a statement at Duisburg Central Station at the end of the long march. The participants attended a cultural programme in the evening and will travel to Frankfurt today to take part in the 32nd Kurdish International Culture Festival.
