Μπολόνια, Ιταλία: Εκδίωξη της αστυνομίας από την γενική συνέλευση φοιτητών (ΒΙΝΤΕΟ)

Bologna: police is routed from Piazza Verdi. Today it is our win!

(Students in Begonia, Italy, clashed with the police, challenging their authority and legitimacy, and defeated them despite the batons, chanting no to a police state, no to militarized police.)

Yesterday in Bologna an open public assembly was called up by the Autonomous University Collective (CUA) in the bustling heart of the university area - the central Piazza Verdi. Its aim was to publicly debate and raise awareness about the odious police provocation of the previous thursday, when anti-riot police corps tried to prevent a solidarity initiative with the Sodexo precarious workers, held by the collective.

On that day, the students, the workers and the citizens of Bologna resisted the police charges head-on and raised barricades in the Via Zamboni university street, ultimately managing to lead the debate to a safe conclusion.

Many solidarity statements from all over Italy came, and a press conference was called up in the weekend to denounce the police conduct and promote yet another day of mobilization.
