Opposition prepares for rally in Germany against Rahmon’s visit

The political movement “Group 24” has announced that a rally will take place on September 28 in the capital of Germany.

Activists of the “Group 24” movement are calling on Tajiks living in Europe, especially in Germany, to participate in the rally against the visit of Tajikistan’s President Emomali Rahmon to Germany for a meeting with the Federal President of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

The announcement states that the rally will take place on September 28 at 3:00 PM in front of the Tajikistan Embassy in Germany.

“Dear citizens, if you do not participate in your own destiny, others will write your fate according to their wishes!” the announcement notes.

It is still unknown whether representatives of other opposition parties and movements, such as the National Alliance of Tajikistan or the “Vatandor” movement, will participate.

It has been reported that on September 29, a meeting of the presidents of Central Asian countries, including Tajikistan, with the President of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier will take place in Berlin. This will be the first joint meeting of this kind with an EU country. This was reported by the press service of the President of Germany.

Details of the meeting are still unknown. The authorities of Tajikistan have also not provided any information about Rahmon’s visit to Germany.

“All citizens of Tajikistan living in Europe, especially in Germany, are invited to participate in this rally and contribute to their own destiny! Let’s see if Rahmon can meet with his citizens in a free environment and hear the problems and difficulties of the people directly, without intermediaries and sycophants,” the announcement from “Group 24” states.

The rally will take place at: Perleberger Straße, 43, 10559, Berlin, Germany.
