Solidarity Greetings from South Korea!

Solidarity Greetings from South Korea!

We, the Peoples G20 Response Preparation Committee of South Korea, extend our warmest embrace to the movements of Canada. We stand in solidarity with you as part of this broader international movement for justice, the planet, and all people. As we prepare for the November G20 in Seoul, we take this moment to remember your struggles and your sacrifices in the Toronto G20. We have heard of the police repression and inhumane detention conditions that protestors experienced. We particularly stand ready to support those 17 activists that are still being persecuted under criminal charges by the police.

We know that it will take movements across many nations to save our planet, our people, and get justice. We will honour your struggles with our own struggles this November in Seoul G20.

In solidarity,

Peoples G20 Response Preparation Committee of South Korea
