They are afraid of that the workers, labourers, common people could learn the facts. Their fear shows our power. It shows the power of the people, labourers and the working class, They are afraid of that power." The spokes person of ESP in Ankara said: "We have finished our Saturday actions which we have been organising in the context of the "We want freedom" campaign. We will continue our honorable struggle."
