Egregi Signori,
Dopo più di un secolo di crimini sistematici come il genocidio, la schiavitù, gli abusi e le violenze sessuali, i crimini di guerra e le discriminazioni, essere Hazara appare ancora oggi un crimine in paesi come l’Afghanistan e il Pakistan. Solo Giovedì 10 Gennaio 2013, infatti, più di cento Hazara sono stati uccisi in un attacco terroristico nella città di Quetta, in Pakistan. In questi ultimi anni, più di mille persone appartenenti all’etnia Hazara sono state uccise in simili attacchi organizzati nello stesso paese.
Oggi, nella loro stessa terra, in Afghanistan, le persone appartenenti a quest’etnia non sono al sicuro. Ogni anno sono esposte agli attacchi dei Kuchi afghani che godono del supporto dei Talebani e del governo afghano. Le loro strade vengono bloccate da Talebani armati, le loro auto vengono fermate e i passeggeri uccisi. Nel centro dell’Afghanistan, dove una gran parte della popolazione Hazara è marginalizzata, non hanno nemmeno accesso a diritti basilari. Ancora oggi essi sono esposti agli attacchi dei Talebani. Il risultato è che circa un milione di Hazara sono fuggiti in numerosi paesi come rifugiati o richiedenti asilo, il più delle volte vivendo in terribili condizioni umane e psicologiche.
La popolazione indigena Hazara rappresentava circa il 67% della popolazione dell’Afghanistan prima del XIX Secolo. Nel corso di questo secolo hanno sofferto il genocidio e la schiavitù e sono stati obbligati con la violenza ad abbandonare le loro terre, situate nel sud del moderno Afghanistan. Più del 60% di questa popolazione venne uccisa e migliaia di loro furono venduti come schiavi.
L’intera storia del XX secolo in Afghanistan è stata contrassegnata dalle uccisioni e dalle discriminazioni nei confronti di questo popolo. Il 10 e 11 Febbraio 1993 in un’area di Kabul chiamata Afshar, il governo dei Mujaheddin e i suoi alleati massacrarono migliaia di donne, uomini e bambini di etnia Hazara. Nell’Agosto del 2008, inoltre, i Talebani uccisero più di 10 000 Hazara nella città di Mazar-i-Sharif. Simili massacri si diffusero velocemente anche in altre parti del paese. La distruzione di simboli e patrimoni artistici e culturali Hazara, nonché la creazione e diffusione di un falso percorso storico attribuito loro, sono state altre strategie adottate, oltre ai già sopracitati crimini, al fine di eliminare l’esistenza di quest’etnia.
Per esempio nel Marzo del 2001, come è noto, i Talebani distrussero le antiche statue di Buddha a Bamiyan, simboli della storia e della cultura Hazara, nonché uno dei capolavori più importanti del patrimonio dell’umanità. Tale è la storia di questi ultimi due secoli di crimini contro il popolo Hazara.
Per queste ragioni, noi poeti di tutto il mondo dichiariamo la nostra solidarietà al popolo Hazara e chiediamo ai leader di tutto il mondo di tenere in considerazione i seguenti punti al fine di assicurare la sicurezza e la salvaguardia del popolo e della cultura Hazara:
1. Dichiarare uno stato di emergenza riguardante la situazione degli Hazara autorizzato dalla Convenzione per la prevenzione e la repressione del crimine di genocidio.
2. Esercitare pressione sul governo dell’Afghanistan e sul governo del Pakistan, richiedendo la cessazione immediata degli atti di discriminazione contro gli Hazara, nonché la cessazione del loro supporto a gruppi terroristici.
3. Richiedere agli Stati parte della Convenzione sui rifugiati la protezione dei richiedenti asilo Hazara e la concessione del diritto d’asilo.
4. Istituire una Commissione internazionale di verità che indaghi sui crimini contro il popolo Hazara.
5. Aprire un’indagine presso le Corti e i Tribunali Internazionali come ad esempio la Corte Penale Internazionale.
6. Richiedere alle truppe internazionali presenti in Afghanistan di assicurare la sicurezza delle persone di etnia Hazara.
7. Richiedere ai media internazionali di riferire ed indagare sui crimini e le violenze contro il popolo Hazara in Pakistan e in Afghanistan.
