45,000 March In Germany For Peace In Kurdistan

     According to the mainstream media, around 45,000 Kurds
demonstrated in the western German city of Duesseldorf on
Saturday, April 26 for a peaceful solution to the conflict in
Kurdistan. Seakers urged Germany to put pressure on Turkey to
enter negotiations with Kurdish groups including the outlawed
Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which is waging a guerrilla war
against Ankara for independence or autonomy in the region. 
Police said Saturday's demonstration had been peaceful,
and they declined to confiscate banned PKK banners and
insignia to avoid provoking a confrontation. But earlier in the
day a nearby motorway was blocked for 90 minutes as border police
stopped seven buses bringing demonstrators to the rally,
confiscating banners and flags and detaining one wanted person.
