English:
One of the strongest ribs of patriarchy is militarism! There is no possibility of freedom for us, unless we break this rib! We have seen in Turkey, how we have strengthened the anti-militarist struggle with the feminist perspective. Anti-militarism needs feminism and feminism needs anti-militarism. However, this struggle should not be confined inside the borders, it needs to be international just like patriarchy and militarism. Against the militarist patriarchy, grasping the world just as an octopus, long live feminist anti-militarist struggle! The struggle of our Iranian female friends enforces us. Let us share more... Let us meet more!
