June 6, 2017Joint Statement: Unite Your Ranks

Statement by the Revolutionary Socialists
In light of the relentless security crackdown being carried out by the regime against the youth of political parties, movements, and independents, in clear violation of the constitution and the law, and in the face of the unjust economic decisions that the regime has implemented—and intends to continue—which have caused rising prices, subsidy cuts, a decline in the standard of living, and increased pressure on the middle class and people experiencing poverty, burdening them with the largest share of the economic fallout, in addition to the regime’s insistence on relinquishing the islands of Tiran and Sanafir in defiance of a final and binding court ruling and against the popular will that has expressed its rejection of this concession through a two-year-long struggle.
We reaffirm our solidarity with all detainees who are paying the price for their struggle in the prisons of shame.
