6,000 MARCH IN DENMARK IN SOLIDARITY WITH VIETNAMESE

Copenhagen

More than 6,000 persons took part in a two-day Whitsun [May 14-15] march of solidarity with the Vietnamese people.

The march from Helsingor to Copenhagen was organized by the Nord Vietnam Solidarity Committee in Copenhagen.

It was a truly international affair with hundreds of participants from Sweden and Norway as well as Germany, France, Beigium, Greece and England. There were even representatives from Bahrein, Colombia and Angola.

The Danish Communist party at first seemed hesitant about joining the march, but then shifted its stand when it became clear that it was headed for a big success. The main slogans were "U.S. Get Out of Vietnam" and "Solidarity with the Fighting Vietnamese."

In some of the villages on the line of march residents decorated the trees in their gardens with flags of the Front for National Liberation.
