The march launched in Europe for the physical freedom of Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan continues on its third day. The "Long March", in which young people from different countries of Europe participated with the demand of "freedom for Leader Apo", continues in Dortmund, Germany. 

 

The youth gathered in front of Dortmund Central Train Station in the morning, made a statement and started the march. In the statement, it was pointed out that youth is the dynamo of social progress with its ability to experiment, learn and develop. Emphasising that the current capitalist system prevents social development, the youth was called upon to "raise their voices against injustice and defend their identity". 

 

The statement ended with the slogan "For a free society and a free culture, we are here!".

During the 11-kilometre walk, the young people will pass through the busiest streets of Dortmund city centre. The theme of the day is "Youth and Culture". In the evening, Abdullah Öcalan's video message, which was made public after 27 years, will be heard at the Kurdish Democratic Society Centre in Dortmund, followed by a statement in five languages.

 

The march will end on the 4th day with the Kurdish Culture Festival in Dortmund.
