NoBorder Karavaan vast aan Bulgaarse grens
AS Bulgarka - 06.06.2003 23:51

De groep Noborder activisten die op de fietsers van Slovenie op weg zijn naar de EU top in Tessaloniki in Griekenland staan al drie dagen op de grens tussen Servie en Bulgarije.

eerdere grensovergang waar de groep meer succes had

Ondankt kloppende papieren, uitnodigingen en de steun van advokaten, weigeren de autoriteiten de hen het land binnen te laten.

Na een gezellige en geslaagde toer met diverse ludieke acties door Slovenie, Kroatie en Servie is de groep van 20 fietsers, een trekker en een hond gestopt aan de Bulgaarse grens. Zoalss gebruikelijk werden alle paspoorten ingenomen, maar de groep mocht niet door en iedereen bleek een stempel te hebben; 'entered and deported'. Een douanier meldde dat deze "smerige anti-globaliserings activisten" het land niet in zouden komen. Inmiddels stond er een cordonmet stokken zwaaien de dienders.
De eerste opgegeven reden was dat de activisten niet genoeg geld bij zich zouden hebben. Toen dit probleem was opgelost zouden de juiste verzekingspapieren voor de trekker niet aanwezig zijn. Ook dit bleek onzin, maar er kwam een nieuwe smoes; de activisten hadden niet de juiste ziektekosten verzekering. Ook dit bleek gezeur. Het Bulgaarse ministerie van buitenlandse zaken moest erkennen dat al hun papieren in orde waren. Er zouden nieuwe uitnodigen aan de douane overhandig moeten worden. Weer een vertragingstactiek; het was onmogelijk om naar het grenskantoor te faxen.

Met de steun van bulgaarse en griekse advokaten zouden ze het afgelopen vanmiddag opnieuw gaan proberen. De duitse ambasadeur was verzekerd dat ze door zouden mogen. Maar volgens onze laatste informatie is het nog niet gelukt en is groep nu van plan via Macedonie te gaan.

Hier nog wat linkjes en een langere tekst in het engels.

Borderpolice stopped caravan in Serbian-Bulgarian Border.

Borderpolice stopped caravan in Serbian-Bulgarian Border.

No border No nation

These days strange things happen at the border of Dimitrovgrad. A group of 20 people from different nations want to cross the border to Bulgaria with their bikes and trucks. Our first effort went two days ago and went like this: Instead of asking for our passports the boarder police ignored us and brought a lot of armed and aggressive policemen who played with
their sticks. The chief of this police unit (Mr. Soholov) offered to let us through if we 'show' him 1000.- Euro. As we didn't agree to this he spat at one of us, said we were dirty trash and told us lies about their laws (e.g. "visitors must have in cash 300 Euro/day" and "must show an invitation letter").
Instead of showing us these laws he pretended that he has the right to make regulations like these by himself. They then collected our passports and put a deportation stamp in our passports although we never had put a step into Bulgaria. Our Bulgarian friends who are awaiting us in Sofia reported to us, the ministery for internal affairs spreads the rumour,
that we're criminals. Our embassies are already investigating on this, but the Bulgarian ministeries refuse any cooperation. The international community gets no background information about this strange behaviour of the Bulgarian state.

Even if the stupid behaviour of the border police against us seems to be suspicious, it is the normal function of border regimes: Borders are given to divide peoples, to control people and in our case to avoid, that resistance against exploitation of Balkan countries by EU-integration can gather during the EU-summit in Thessaloniki/Greece. EU-integration, together with the treaty of Schengen gives the regimes more effect to control migration, to divide people into poor and rich classes. It is obvious that (now and in the future) borders like this in Dimitrovgrad will be used in case of workers and social protest, to stop people who have to work under bad conditions to move from into another country.

Therefore it is necessary to abolish all borders and all nations.

We invite all people to come with us to the border today (6th of June) at 16:00 to protest against the Bulgarian-Serbian border regime and to support our caravan to cross the border. In case that we can't cross the border, we gather at 20:00 in the centre of Dimitrovgrad.
