Nan, Gan, Azadi!

Enough is enough. We are activists defending the right to self-determination of the Kurdish people, because no one is free until we all are!

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

We want to end the campaign with the statement of our friend Amal: "We always say "Azadî bo hemu mirova" in Kurdish and that means freedom for all people." Thank you for following the campaign and keep on fighting for an independent #Kurdistan! #FreeKurdistan✊

We appealed to @GOVUK, @BillGates, and @Dunja_Mijatovic to support our campaign on the pursuit of #Kurdish independence. Read our #openletters below! It is time for you to continue to pressure the relevant actors to take action and recognize #Kurdistan as an independent state!✊

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

This campaign will come to an end soon, but the fight continues! Now it's your turn to appeal to governments and organizations to ask for #Kurdistan to be recognized! We will not stop fighting until the rights of the #Kurdish people are respected! #FreeKurdistan✊

#CulturalFact Why do the women in #Kurdistan think it is important for them to join the fight? Want to hear it from them? Here is a video you must watch if you want to know more about the #women in the Peshmergas. Watch⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/dNjyfIHQRC

Personal statement 🔥➡️ We (the Kurds) have learned that no one is coming to save us. If we want something we need to take it for ourselves. Other governments have betrayed us, they came to get what they wanted, and then they left. Adnan, 30. #Freekurdistan✊

Think a world without police is impossible? It's happening already in Rojava.

We can have lives of freedom and coexistence, without the violent enforcement of hierarchies.

Another world is possible. We just have to fight for it.

In the fight against ISIS #Kurdish #women contributed to the Peshmerga and became famous around the western world for their courage and sacrifice. Here is a #tedx talk about two briliant Kurdish women you must watch! ⬇️https://t.co/IyoFpc0NWB

Personal statement 🔥➡️ I don't want to live in Europe, but I cannot live in Kurdistan because my life is in danger there. I dream that one day I can come back, my children will learn Kurmanji in school and we will be free to express our culture. Tina, 19. #FreeKurdistan✊

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

Our #openletter to @Dunja_Mijatovic is out! The EU says it is committed to the protection of #HumanRights , yet it refuses to act in order to protect the rights of the #Kurdish people. #FreeKurdistan ✊ Read our open letter here➡️https://t.co/q8ujGCYatF

Personal statement🔥➡️ When I think of an independent Kurdistan I think about a place where no one needs to hide. The people will be happy to see other different people around, its a place for all to be free. Nadim, 21. #freekurdistan

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

We wrote an #openletter to @GOVUK and to @BillGates to urge them to support an independent #kurdish state. The #kurdish people have spoken loud and clear, they need a state where their rights are protected. Help us urge other governments to recognize #Kurdistan! #Freekurdistan✊

Now I do not get food from the camp and I live without toilets or electricity, but at least I know no one will fight me for who I am. Zahra, 27. #freekurdistan

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

Personal statement 🔥➡️ I left Moria (refugee) camp some months ago. That place is hell for everyone but as part of the Kurdish minority, there are more problems for me. People want to fight with me all the time there, so I decided to leave. (+)

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

requirements, the only thing they need is the recognition from other states! This is why we appeal to our governments to stop the silence and to recognize #Kurdistan as an independent state! #FreeKurdistan✊

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

Let’s talk #law. The requisites for statehood are set out by the Montevideo Convention and they are (1) A permanent population, (2) A defined territory, (3) A government, and (4) the capacity to enter into relations with other states. The #Kurdish people fulfill these (+)

This short video shows how #Kurdish people lived in #Turkey back in 2003. The situation has not changed that much within the country since then, #Kurdish people continue to be persecuted and their rights are systematicaly denied! #freekurdistan ✊Watch⬇️https://t.co/P4FKm4U1ls

I could not go back to say goodbye to my family, now I cannot see them anymore and they are scared the same thing will happen to them. I never planned to come to Europe, I didn't want to be a refugee. Salima, 24. #freekurdistan

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

Personal statement 🔥➡️ The Turkish arrested me for a political action, when they found out I was Kurdish they took my passport and they told me to go to Europe. People like me are not welcome there, they pushed me to the border and they told me to keep walking. (+)

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

I deserved it because I am Kurdish. One time I was attacked and they stabbed my stomach, I almost bled until death because the doctors refused to treat me as they believed that kurdish people don't deserve to live. Adnan, 30. #Freekurdistan✊

[Nan, Gan, Azadi! @Kurdsfree]

Personal statement🔥➡️ I was held as a political prisoner in Tehran, apart from the usual dangers that come with being imprisoned in an Iranian jail, I had to deal with other groups attacking me for my identity. The guards would beat me and meanwhile they would tell me that (+)
