In this context, the Kurdistan Democratic Community Conference in Europe made a statement, during which it pointed out: “The hostile positions and criminalization policies pursued by the French government, which continue against the struggle of the Kurdistan Liberation Movement, have encouraged fascist groups.

Prof. Marco Sassoli: "Since the Kurds do not have a state, international law does not see Turkey's presence in Kurdistan as an occupation." In the international arena, almost every day, a country is accused of violating the Geneva Conventions. However, no one is held accountable for the crimes committed in Ukraine, Gaza or Kurdistan. Civilian settlements are bombed and civilians, including women and children, are killed, other people's lands are occupied, millions of people are displaced and subjected to forced migration, and people from other places are settled in the occupied areas. Fighters captured are subjected to severe torture or are kept in severe isolation conditions for life. While all this is being done, no state is held accountable. At most, we see that states and institutions that are responsible for protecting international law act selectively. While international law is brought to the fore against the war in Ukraine, there is dead silence in the face of the Turkish state's war in Kurdistan.
