Demirtaş: ashamed to be a human being as I listened to PM speech
BDP (Peace and Democracy Party) co-chair Selahattin Demirtaş said he was "ashamed to be a human being" when he listened to prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan speech on Tuesday. The PM had accused the BDP of exploiting the death of 35 people in the village of Roboski. The 35 mostly young men were slaughtered in air raids carried out by the Turkish army.
KCK (Kurdish Communities Union) Presidency Council has released a statement about the “isolation punishment under isolation” of PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan and called on all Kurdish people to “step up their protest activity”.
Kurds are for the first time mobilizing against the U.S. government which has for a long time supported Turkey’s military and slaughter policies against Kurds. Demonstrations will be staged in front of U.S. embassies in all European countries within the scope of the protest campaign.
While PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan has been denied permission to meet his lawyers since 27 July 2011, it has emerged that Öcalan was also handed down a 20-day solitary confinement on 29 November 2011.
