Solidarity with anti-nucleur activists in Hanhikivi: 21st September 2015

In an act of solidarity with the Anti-Nuclear Power Camp in Northern Ostobothin, Finland, activists in Warsaw hung a banner in view of the Finnish Embassy. The camp is part of the struggle to block energy company Fennovoma from building an ecologically disastrous nuclear power plant on the Hanhikivi Cape. This area is of vital ecological importance with many rare and endangered species and ecosystems. The anti-nuclear camp in Hanhikivi was violently evicted on 15th Sept by police working together with guards from local security company Arlia and G4S. In resistance to this eviction one person sucessfully occupied a tree on the proposed building site and as of 21 Sept, is still there. The person is being denied access to water and food.

We demand that the building of this devestating project is stopped.

We demand that the violence against the people in Hanhikivi protecting their right to a healthy environment is stopped.
