PUK’s Mele Bextiyar condemns Turkish attacks on Afrin

PUK Politbureau Member Mele Bextiyar condemned the Turkish state’s invasion attacks against Afrin and said, “The Turkish state has been attacking the Kurdish people for days, these attacks have no rightful cause.”

Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) Politbureau Member Mele Bextiyar spoke to RojNews news agency and condemned the Turkish state’s invasion attacks against Afrin. Bextiyar said, “The Turkish state has been attacking the Kurdish people for days, these attacks have no rightful cause.”

Mele Bextiyar protested the Turkish state’s invasion attacks against Afrin and stated that the peoples of the world should not stay silent in the face of the attacks on Afrin.

Bextiyar said the Turkish state is trying to reflect their attacks as “Olive Branch” has no credibility and concluded with: “The Turkish state speaks of ‘olive branch’ and then bombs 10 million olive trees in Afrin with 80 fighter jets. They kill civilians. Afrin has been free for years, peoples were living there in freedom. The Turkish state’s attacks against peoples living in peace in Afrin can have no justification.”
