-(Keystone-ATS) Some 300 people were gathered at the end of the afternoon on Place Georges-Python. Heckled by pro-Palestine demonstrators, the head of the federal department of the interior spoke of the difficulties “for those who believe in progressive ideas, to a world supposed to generate more equality and social justice”.
Further on, the Minister of Health, resulting from the PS, has still referred to those who “fight against discrimination, for a society that respects and celebrates differences, for an inclusive society in which all and all find their place, that which allows them to live freely and with dignity”.
Difficult times also for those who “want more solidarity between peoples, who believe in the values of democracy,” she added.
