US Deal, Broken Promises: Syrian Army Advances as Kurds Take to Europe’s Streets

Hundreds of protesters gathered near Rotterdam Central Station to condemn the Syrian government’s continued military advances into Kurdish-controlled towns, including Raqqa and Tabqa. Demonstrators waved SDF and YPG flags and accused Damascus of violating US-brokered agreements meant to ensure a peaceful transfer of control. Protesters warned they would not remain silent as clashes continued, despite announcements of a ceasefire and official moves by the Syrian government to recognise Kurdish cultural rights.

00:39anti

00:50well

00:53We have organized this demonstration today to show solidarity with people who in Rojava,

01:13in northeast Syria, and Rosalat, northeast Iran, are fighting for freedom and with Iranians

01:25who are revolting against the regime of the Islamic Republic.

01:32So we organized this demonstration to show our solidarity.

01:36And besides that, to show that there is more than one faction in Iran that is and has been

01:50fighting against the Islamic Republic, and no single leader will be representing us.

01:55We are diverse people, and we have our own leaders.

02:01So we are here to show that.

02:06Well, the Syrian government has been breaking the agreements that they have been making, namely

02:28the march agreement, which was supposed to be a goodwill agreement to integrate the ANS part,

02:42the Rojava, into Syrian government.

02:45But we have seen betrayal time and again.

02:49Recently, in Aleppo, in Sheikh Maksud, and in Ashrafia, we have seen that the Syrian Arab army has attacked civilians.

02:59The SDF took out all the fighters, and they were only policed ASI is there.

03:06But in contrast to the betrayal of the agreement, they did attack the civilians with heavy weaponry.

03:17And a lot of people, hundreds of thousands of people, had to flee.

03:24And now we saw yesterday that in a US-sponsored agreement again, SDF agreed to go out of two more places.

03:39And unfortunately, the Syrian Arab army again attacked them while they were going out there and caused fights,

03:50which led to loss of life again.

03:54And this is a pattern that we have been waiting for for a long time.

04:10So, we have had a working democracy, a working governance in Rojava for a very long time, for longer than ten years.

04:22And apparently, that is not enough for the world to support.

04:27So, we are here to show that we will not stop fighting.

04:31We will keep our back right and we will fight again.

04:36We are here to demonstrate against Iran's government.

04:58We are here to come back to the Ukraine, Russia's government, Ukraine, and the Ukraine's government.

05:05We will keep our fingers at the future of Turkey and Ukraine.

05:09And we will change it.

05:10We will change the future of the Ukraine and the Ukraine's government.

05:15We will change the pressure of the Ukraine to receive the pressure of the Ukraine and the Ukraine.

05:25In the last few weeks there is no internet, no connection with the world.

05:31That's the goal of today's demonstration.

05:34Shahid Namere!

05:36Shahid Namere!

05:38Shahid!

05:56Can you hear my voice from an umbrella?

06:01I don't want you to hear from you.

06:15Is it sorry?

06:17Can you hear your song when you play a kids civic education?

06:22Is it 있습니다?

06:24Oh
