	Speaking at the rally on behalf of the Qamishlo City People's Initiative, Ebdulkerîm Sarûxan greeted the Kurdish, Arab, and Christian peoples living in Rojava, the Kurds living in Bakur, Bashur, Rojhilat Kurdistan, and abroad, as well as all the peoples of the world who support the struggle of the Rojava people out of moral responsibility. Ebdulkerîm Sarûxan stated that the Kurdish people are going through a sensitive process in which their rights must not be denied, emphasizing that national rights must now be explicitly recognized in the constitution and laws.

	 

	Stating that the rights of the Kurdish people must also be recognized in the Syrian Constitution, Ebdulkerîm Sarûxan said, "We can no longer be deceived by words. They want to deceive us with religious rhetoric. They should know that the true values of Islam are being lived in Rojava," he said, also calling on the US Congress.

	 

	The march ended with chants of “Bijî berxwedana Rojava” (Long live the resistance of Rojava).
