Nikos Houdis, deputy of the European Parliament, and Kostas Isyjos, head of Foreign Policy of the Radical Left Coalition, are among those who denounce the arbitrary acts committed against these patriots.

The promoters of the camping told the Prensa Latina news agency that their aim is to continue collecting signatures of personalities throughout Greece and send them to Obama on the 5th day of every month, when the World Solidarity Campaign “On the 5th for The Five” is activated.

In this way, they will update with new messages the lists of signatures, until justice is served in the case of Rene Gonzalez, Ramon Labañino, Antonio Guerrero, Fernando Gonzalez and Gerardo Hernandez.

The Five -as they’re known internationally- were arrested in 1998 and condemned in 2001 to harsh sentences ranging from 15 years to two life imprisonments plus 15 years.
