BRUSSELS,— Speaking to Nuçe TV on
Saturday night on the current situation in the West
Kurdistan city of Serękaniyę (Syrian Kurdistan),
Democratic Union Party (PYD) Leader Salih Muslim
pointed out that the Turkish government is
supporting the armed groups attacking on Kurds in
the city with an aim to invade the West Kurdistan
territory.
Muslim remarked that the mentioned armed groups
broke their promise by not leaving the city and not
ending attacks on Kurds in accordance with the
ceasefire they demanded following the clashes in
November. "These armed groups aren't independent
structures that act according to their own
decisions.
The reason why they attacked once again after the
ceasefire is the fact that Turkish authorities had a
meeting with them and asked them to attack on the
Kurds in the city", Muslim underlined and noted that
Turkey applied pressure on these armed groups and
threatened to stop supporting them unless they acted
in accordance with the purpose for which they were
sent to there.
Responding to the Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet
Davutoğlu who has recently said that "Turkey would
respect an independent Syrian parliament's decision
on federation for Kurds in Syria", Muslim said that;
"First of all, it is not Davutoğlu but the peoples
of Syria who will decide whether the new Syrian
parliament to be formed will be independent or not.
We heard the same statements from some opposition
groups earlier,www.ekurd.net
which shows that such arrangements are built by some
certain central forces. On the other hand, Davutoğlu
should know his place and stop pretending to respect
the parliament of other countries for he should
first respect his own parliament and its members".
