Kurds demonstrated also in Helsinki

During recent days Kurds have been protesting in many countries due to claims that Abdullah Öcalan is being poisoned. They marched the 8th March through Helsinki down town from Parliament House to Foreingn Ministry. There was about 350 people which is big proportion of the Kurdish community in Helsinki.
Here are some pictures from the demonstration:

The demonstration was very similar than many other Kurdish demonstrations. Only children have grown bigger and new babies and asylum seekers have arrived. This is really frustrating! Despite so many efforts by the Kurds their situation has not improved in eight years either in Turkey or in the diaspora communities in Europe.
