Call for an international march of Amazigh peoples
in Paris, Sunday January 14, 2024
The Tuareg peoples of Azawad and Kabylia are currently, and more than ever, facing criminal violence in the form of mass killings of civilians in Azawad by the Malian army backed by Wagner’s mercenaries, and hundreds of arbitrary arrests and death sentences of Kabyles by Algerian injustice.
In the case of Azawad, as in that of Kabylia, the illegitimate military regimes in Mali and Algeria are relentlessly implementing genocidal intentions aimed at the annihilation of these peoples.
These abominable tragedies are taking place amidst the indifference and deafening silence of international bodies, the media and major human rights organizations. As if the life of an Amazigh person were of no importance in the eyes of the world. And yet, throughout history, the Amazigh have shown their attachment to the universal values of peace, freedom, dignity and respect for human life.
Faced with the unprecedented critical situation facing the Kabyle and Touareg peoples of Azawad in particular, Amazigh organizations and activists have launched an urgent call for a major march in Paris on the occasion of Yennayer, Amazigh New Year’s Day 2974-2024. The aim is to make the cries of distress of the Kabyle and Tuareg peoples of Azawad resound throughout the world, and to reaffirm our full solidarity with them at this crucial time.
We therefore launch a solemn appeal for your active participation in this march, which we hope will be grandiose and historic. We ask each and every one of you to relay this appeal, so that this demonstration of support for the Kabyle and Touarreg peoples of Azawad, and for all Amazighs, will be a milestone in history.
Everyone to the Amazigh march on January 14, 2024 in Paris.
