Yuksel Koç: Global powers support Turkish state’s chemical attacks against Kurds

The co-chair of the Kurdistan Democratic Community Conference in Europe, Yuksel Koç, stated that following the decisions taken at the meeting of the Turkish National Security Council in 2014, the Turkish state intensified its attacks on the Kurdish people and their struggle, and said: "We cannot look at the struggle directed against the attacks of the occupying Turkish state outside framework of the " It’s Time Freedom" campaign.

Adding" Turkish state started its war by imposing severe siege on Imarli Prison, 2015, by launching its attacks on legitimate defence zones, in which sought to undermine the will of the Kurdish people, but it could not. So, it continued on its attacks on Rojava and Southern Kurdistan, the Turkish state started the genocide against the Kurdish people and the Kurdish freedom movement to protect its existence.

Yuksel Koç explained that at a time when fascist attacks were on the rise, the Time for Freedom campaign in Kurdistan and Europe was welcomed: "Leader Abdullah Ocalan's campaign of physical freedom has entered a new phase. The Kurdish people and their friends everywhere are in the arenas of the campaign. With this step, events were held everywhere to guarantee leader Ocalan's physical freedom. The Freedom Initiative of leader's Ocalan was also established within the framework of the campaign.

Today, everyone recognizes that leader Ocalan is the force of the solution in the Kurdish issue, and that he is one of the important actors in Turkey's demise and the resolution of the Middle East crisis. Anyone who sees the crisis of capitalist modernity believes that leader Ocalan can solve the problem through the model of a democratic nation. This feeling is recognized by people all over the world. "

'Increased frequency of attacks after the campaign '
Commenting on the increase in the frequency of attacks after the Time for Freedom campaign, Yuksel Koç said: "The Turkish state began to attack after being defeated in front of the resistance of the Guerrilla forces in Garê, Metîna, erê, Heftanîn. Many anti - attack activists and peace advocates have gone to Southern Kurdistan. But the KDP and the German government blocked them. Visits continued. The Kurdistan Protection Initiative was announced, and the Kurdish people and their friends everywhere began a campaign of solidarity against the occupation.

Speaking about the position of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), Yuksel Koç added that the Turkish state was seeking to create an intra Kurdish conflict for the PDK after failing to advance against Guerrilla resistence, Yuksel Koç said, "There are some forces within the PDK that support the occupiers in their interests, and in this context the Kurdish people and their friends have issued numerous statements and called on the PDK to abandon its complicit position."

Guerrilla fighters are resisting for the Kurdish people '

Yuksel Koç pointed out that the Guerrilla fighters created a historical will by resisting it in the Kurdistan Mountains, and said: "Turkish state wants to occupy the entire Kurdistan, but the resistance of the Guerrilla fighters confirms that it will not be able to achieve its aims, the Turkish state cannot advance against the resistance of the Guerrilla fighters forces and use chemical weapons in the eyes of the whole world. The use of chemical weapons is prohibited by international treaties (Chemical Weapons Convention) and the Turkish state is one of the States that has signed this treaty. Wars have begun against the States that used these weapons. The war against Saddam Hussein was because of his use of chemical weapons. Today, the Turkish state uses these prohibited weapons against the Kurdish people, but all international human rights organizations remain silent. The United Nations Human Rights Organization and institutions working in this area shall remain silent and shall draw power from States. "

Hegemonic forces support chemical attacks by the Turkish state'
Yuksel Koç noted that it is not possible for the Turkish state to decide to use chemical weapons alone and that behind these attacks are the forces of international hegemony, and continued: "The Kurdish people and their friends must organize events to expose this dirty policy and urge the institutions working in this area to act. Working with many institutions within the framework of banning the use of chemical weapons in the second year of the "It’s time for Freedom" campaign.

To eliminate the fascist power of AKP and MHP in the four parts of Kurdistan and especially, Southern Kurdistan, he called on to join the activities more effectively. He added: "The solution to the Middle East crisis is the realization of the physical freedom of leader Ocalan. In the new phase, peoples looking for freedom and democracy must unite around Pradigma, the democratic nation of Ocalan, with strength. On the anniversary of the campaign tens of thousands of people went out to the yards and showed how the campaign should be conducted in the new phase, the Kurdish people and their friends will struggle in the new phase more to protect the gains made.
