Final Statement of the Balkan Anarchist Bookfair 2023 – Balkan Anarchist Bookfair 2023

6/ So many unfinished discussions, expressions of love and comradeship. So many memories and hopes. So many promises of meetings of the future.

But the future will only exist if we build it ourselves through the struggle against the machine of death that is capitalism. #BAB2023 /END

5/ Once again residents of Ljubljana proved that is takes care of its own and other fighters. There is no way hundreds of comrades would be able to participate in such an event without their firm support on all levels. No state intervention could tear apart this bond across the Balkans that has been only strenghtened in these days. #BAB2023 /x
4/ The protest on Saturday night brought together an enormous crowd (600? 800?) of comrades. The front banner is written in myriad of languages. Shouts were heard in so many languages that nobody could identify them all. Among them albanian, turkish, slovenian, greek, italian, danish, kurdish. #BAB2023 /x
3/ Again is confirmed that the resistance to the capitalist devastation through war, nationalism and exploitation is possible as long as we embrace our diversity and focus on long-term organising and buiding. Let's turn Bakans in the space of struggle for life and autonomy. #BAB2023 /x

2/ We share words written elsewhere:

"The residents of Ljubljana welcomed the participants of the Balkan anarchist bookfair 2023 with open arms. It hosted more than 600 comrades from the Balkans and beyond for three days. Information sharing, organisation, network building, exchanges of analysis and skills....and so many hugs and kisses. #BAB2023 /x

1/ We were on the Balkan Anarchist Bookfair 2023 in Ljubljana. It was an historical gathering of those who do not give up the aspirations for a world without machine of death that is capitalism.

Beautiful setting, intriguing encounters, passionate engagement and many more of the fundamental ingredients that make anarchist movement a lived, embodied and material reality. #BAB2023 /x
