On Thursday October the 18th there was an action on the Berlin HU university during a speech of Göran Perrson. The activists demanded the release of all prisoners.

The Swedish Prime-minister Göran Perrson was disturbed and interrupted during his speech about Europe on the Berlin Humboldt university. Activists demanded the release of all political prisoners and the end of the fortress Europe. Reason for the action were the brutal actions of the swedish police during the protests against the EU summit in Gothenburg in June 2001 were for the first time the swedish police shot at globalisationcritics. On tuesday there were new arrests in Gothenburg that were related to the protests during the EU summit. About 20-30 people showed banner and disturbed Perrsons speech with slogans and noisy instruments.The security personell behaved relativly easy, the university didn`t call the police. So nobody was arrested.
