Lusa - Business News - Portugal: Por-Palestine activists smear red paint, smash windows at JPMorgan HQ

Lisbon, June 14, 2024 (Lusa) - A group of activists in solidarity with the Palestinian resistance to the Israeli occupation smeared red paint on and smashed the windows of the building where the headquarters of JPMorgan Chase bank is located in Lisbon at dawn on Friday, the PSP police force confirmed to Lusa.
In a note sent to Lusa, a group of activists in solidarity with the Palestinian resistance, the Collective for the Liberation of Palestine and Palestine Action, said that they had also written in Portuguese "JPMorgan finances genocide".
A PSP source confirmed to Lusa that a group of people broke glass and threw paint balloons at the building on Rua Barata Salgueiro in Lisbon at 5.19 a.m.
According to the source, the group was no longer there when the police arrived.
The activists explain in their own note that the action is a response to an international call initiated by the Palestina Libera and Ultima Generazione collectives in Italy, which also painted the offices of JPMorgan Chase in Milan and asked collectives around the world to help publicly denounce this company.
"The protest aims to denounce the complicity of the US bank JPMorgan Chase, the largest bank in the world, with the Zionist colonial project and the ongoing genocide in Palestine," the statement said, adding that JPMorgan Chase "is currently financing some of the largest companies that directly support the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people, including Elbit Systems, the largest Israeli arms company."
In the note, the group recalls the Israeli bombings in the Gaza Strip in recent months, emphasising that "banks like JPMorgan have never stopped financing" Israel through various arms manufacturing companies, one of which is "Elbit Systems, the largest Israeli company producing weapons and military armaments for the Israeli army."
The activists also call for "no more consent to the genocide taking place in Palestine" and pledge to "resist the companies that profit from the colonial occupation of Palestine."
They also demand that "JPMorgan Chase and other companies complicit in the genocide cancel all ties with the Zionist state and Israeli companies, starting with the immediate cancellation of all ties with Elbit Systems".
"We demand a boycott, divestment and sanctions on all organisations complicit in the occupation. We demand an end to the occupation of Palestine, the total dismantling of the Zionist colonial project and the self-determination of the Palestinian people," the statement adds.
