Congolaises et Congolais résidant au Royaume-Uni,

Le Lundi 02.08.2021, une réunion s’est tenue avec les Représentants de différentes Communautés vivant au Royaume-Uni pour dégager certains points qui peuvent avoir un impact dans les relations entre la Police (Metropolitan Police) et les différentes communautés, et les Communautés entre elles.

Autres points à l’ordre du jour étaient le COVID-19 et l’EURO 2020. Aces points, les discussions ont tourné autour des réactions des membres de différentes Communautés.

L’audience a noté la circulation des informations contradictoires sur les vaccins et leurs conséquences dans la population.

En ce qui concerne l’EURO 2020, il y a eu un constat sur le risque de la montée du racisme suite au déroulement du match. L’audience a considéré que ce phénomène était très dangereux et que la Police devrait y veiller méticuleusement.

Veuillez trouver ci-jointes des informations importantes, nous vous en souhaitons une très bonne lecture. Nous avons jugé utile de vous transmettre ces informations telles qu’elles nous ont été données en anglais pour éviter toute désinformation.

Pour la Communauté,

Ackys KITUBA,

Coordonnateur.
