The PES expresses its full solidarity and empathy with the people of Nepal. The violent earthquake that struck Nepal last Saturday has caused the death of at least 4,400 and has left more than 8,000 injured. Rescuers are working night and day to try and retrieve survivors from the ruins, while hospitals struggle with overcrowding and a lack of medicine. In order to respond to this horrifying tragedy, the PES supports SOLIDAR’s initiative of an emergency fund for Nepal and calls all institutional partners and individuals to take part to this effort.
