Opinion José Chulvi: The Europe of people

16 March 2016 - 18: 43

Faced with the possible EU agreement with Turkey to practice collective expulsions of refugees and also use them as currency, we express our strongest rejection. In the same way we demand that the Spanish government functions not give their support which, in practice, is the conviction of hundreds of thousands of innocent people fleeing war and the destruction of their countries.

Xàbia us we not opted to remove the flag of the European Union public buildings. On the contrary, it is now when more decisively Europeans want to be; and we mean what we have built with so much effort between all the fruit of generosity, strength and culture of Europeans can not squander decisions of a group of leaders who are not the moral high ground of challenge we raised the new century.

Europe will only be viable if understood, if we understand, we can not close the doors to people who need us or attend impassive to the destruction of entire societies saying that's not my problem. And while it is. Nor can we fail ignominiously over the years caught in diplomatic and political labyrinths of headline as the war bleeds a riverside Mediterranean without we decide to act.

And because in emergency situations is when we turn to our best collective values ​​we reject this agreement shame, we urge the Spanish government functions not make the game to build walls, we keep European flags in our buildings and ask that open the way for the refugees.

Finally, I recall that in Xàbia to the extent of our possibilities we took a step forward with the refugee crisis from the outset. So, we have collaborated with UNHCR benefits calendar published by the Department of Tourism, we join the Office of Municipal Coordination of Refugee Aid FEMP and are in contact with various humanitarian organizations to provide our assistance where it is most needed organizations.

It is not a question of yes or no Europe. Of course Europe itself; but with people and not with those who deny the most basic human rights.

    Europe is not an island or an oasis. We are part of the archipelago of humanity, and we only have meaning if we treat everyone as an individual, with humanity, with respect, solidarity, with commitment to life and the fight against inequalities, from whatever quarter, the house opposite or the opposite shore.
    It's not just about aid, it is also to act and stop the barbarism and the annihilation of thought, freedom and life.
    Europe is aging, Germany is aging,… does anyone want to make a living by squeezing the rest out of neo-colonialism?
    Teutonic economic lobbies hide under fake sheepskins. This is not about charity. I don't want that. It is about Solidarity, Respect, Commitment, Freedom,… Life.
