At the time, more than 40 patients were being nursed at the clinic. Patients who are poor people without health insurance, both immigrants and Greek citizens.
Médecins du Monde deem such an act, on the part of Golden Dawn, rather offensive and provocative, intended to cause feelings of intimidation and clearly aimed at our patients and our volunteers.
Committed to the principle of social solidarity and to the Hippocratic Oath, Médecins du Monde, free of discriminations, continue to attend to people irrespective of race, gender or religious beliefs.
We declare that we refuse to “take fright” and we will staunchly continue to defend the right to Health care wherever there are people.
We deem that Golden Dawn bears moral responsibility for any potential attacks our Clinics may be subjected to in the future and for this reason the relevant authorities will be notified accordingly.
We call upon the Greeks who share the same solidarity principles with us to support our efforts with even greater determination.
