'30 Days of Injustice' Global Day of Solidarity in Groningen
Children stand in a mock prison cell, in front of city hall to show their solidarity with the Arctic 30 in Groningen, the sister city of Murmansk, the city where the Arctic 30 held and the province where Mannes Ubels, one of the Arctic 30, lives. As the Arctic 30 face their 30th day of imprisonment by Russian authorities, nearly 10,000 people are taking to the streets at 85 events in 36 cities to call for their immediate release. A Russian court has charged the Arctic 30 (twenty-eight Greenpeace International activists, as well as a freelance videographer and photographer), with piracy, punishable for up to 15 years in prison.
In original language:
"30 Dagen Onrechtvaardigheid - Wereldwijde Solidariteitsdag Arctic 30" in Groningen
Kinderen staan in een imitatie gevangeniscel voor het stadhuis in Groningen, zusterstad van Murmansk, de stad waar de Arctic 30 worden vastgehouden en tevens de stad waar Mannes Ubels, een van de Arctic 30 woont.
Op dit moment zitten de 30 actievoerders van Greenpeace 30 dagen gevangen, daarom protesteren wereldwijd bijna 10.000 mensen bij 85 evenementen in 36 steden. Het Russische gerechtshof heeft de 30 actievoerders (bemanningsleden van het schip de Arctic Sunrise, actievoerders uit verschillende landen, 1 cameraman en 1 fotograaf) aangeklaagd wegens piraterij. Hierop staat in Rusland 15 jaar gevangenisstraf.

'30 Days of Injustice' Global Day of Solidarity in Groningen
Greenpeace asks the public at the central square in Groningen to show solidarity with the 30 activists in detention in Russia. They can do this by letting themselves being put behind bars in a cage and pictured; these portraits will be shown on Facebook. Also the public is asked to sign a petition addressed to the Russian embassy in which the release of the Arctic 30 is urged. Today it is exactly 30 days ago when armed Russian coastguards entered the Greenpeace ship the Arctic Sunrise. All 30 crew members were arrested among which the Dutch chief engineer Mannes Ubels and campaigner Faiza Oulahsen.
