World condemnation of the brutal repression in Colombia

No one can remain indifferent to the atrocities in Colombia, with their toll of dead, wounded, detained and all kinds of abuses by the public force as the only response to a people who face the neoliberal policies of President Iván Duque's government.

Men and women took to the streets of Colombian cities to protest the onslaught of new, unpopular policies that disproportionately affect the poorest, already hard hit by the economic crisis exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. They are keeping the banners of peace flying high in a country plagued by violence for decades.

Stop the abuses!

Justice and punishment for those responsible for indiscriminate repression!

For the people's right to demonstrate peacefully!
