A-Infos (en) Slovakia, Žilina, Squat Palác Sofia supported Dutch squatters

On friday 30th of October 2009, shortly after 4pm, collective of squat Palác Sofia at 
Slovakian city Žilina took part solidarity action for Dutch squatters support. That action 
answered on Dutch squatters´movement call, which called on 30.10. - 1. 11. 2009 Squatting 
support action days. ---- Main purpose of those action days was to protest against 
politics of lower house of Dutch Parliament, what passed the law criminalising squatting. 
People from Palác Sofia decided to join many demonstrators from different parts of world 
and they were protesting at the Slovakian streets. Action was restful, despite of two 
policewomen, which warned squatters, that publical giving leaflets is without municipality 
license illegal. They warned with penalty, but nobody was convicted. All was resolved 
during the discussion and action could go on.

There was hanged red-black, anarchist flag and transparent "Solidarity with
Dutch squatters" at the fence of local bulidingsite. Under the transparent
there were squatters giving leaflets and clarified the purpose of action to
the passers-by. But many of people didn´t know about squatting questions,
even some didn´t know, what does mean "squat". We hope, that solidarity
action in Žilina helped at least particularly with clarify what is
squatting about.

When were all the leaflets handed out, protesters moved back to squat
Palác Sofia, where was laterly hanged aforesaid transparent, like the next
manifestation of solidarity with Dutch squatting movenent.

Solidarity!
