Αgainst the destruction of central Evia

At this moment, the State and investors are planning the looting of the last piece of green in central Evia. In particular, Ellaktor of Vardinogianni and the Portuguese multinational EDP Renewables are planning to place 86 wind turbines in the mountainous green areas of Dirfyos, Xerovouni, the Kotylaia Mountains and the Euboean Olympus. In fact, following the recent rejection by the ΑΠΕ of the appeal made by residents and associations of Evia, the implementation of this project is just around the corner.

Green Repower, the company of the forestor – sometimes also investor(!) – Eleftherios Karapidakis, is a company preparing environmental impact studies of Development & Evaluation of RES Projects. The specific subject has signed studies for a series of disastrous “green” investments throughout the Greek region, such as Evia, Agrafa, Boeotia, serving his personal benefit as well as those of his bosses.

The only ethical consumption is expropriation.

In the face of the hijacking of our lives we refuse to remain inactive. That’s why on Thursday June 6th we storm on morning times  at the A.B. supermarket located on the National Resistance street ( Εθνικής Αντιστάσεως ) in Kaisariani. We went in, took what we wanted and left undisturbed.

This location was chosen in an attempt to break the regime of terror and inaction that has prevailed in recent months in the area, due to the suffocating increase in police, both static forces and patrols. We are re-residentializing our spaces and neighbourhoods, which the State is methodically trying to sterilize, turning them into hotbeds of lawlessness and resistance.

Recently trucks have been unloading concrete bases at the Exarchia square construction site. They are the bases that will support the new sheets of the construction site extension. This development suffocates the streets around the square in a continuation of the general plan of desertification and gentrification of the neighbourhood of Exarcheia.

For the square, this means further occupation of the public space, cutting off from the world its minimal remaining free space as a meeting and socializing point. Around the now larger construction site the police presence will be more intense and suffocating, making it even more difficult to hold gatherings, events and political coming together in general.

from the Patras Solidarity Assembly

On Monday, April 22, the anti-terrorists raided the house of comrade Andrea F. in Patras, kidnapped him and took him to Athens. He is facing serious charges under the Terrorism Act. Once again the anti-terrorist scenarios are proclaimed as indisputable truth, regardless of whether they collapse like a house of cards dozens of times in the courts. In any case, the prosecuting authorities are not interested in anything other than gaining impressions and producing work to the order of the respective government, serving political expediencies, especially in view of the European elections. The entrenchment of a sense of security translates into brute force and repression, control and discipline, and police-military management of social issues.
