Dominggus Oktavianus, General Secretary of People's Democratic Party (Partai Rakyat Demokratik - PRD) of Indonesia, issued a solidarity statement with the HDP.

The statement says: “The People's Democratic Party – PRD - strongly condemns the ban proceedings against the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) in Turkey as an affront to democracy and we stand with the HDP against this repression.”

The statement added: “After the outrageous impeachment of many Kurdish mayors, the Turkish authorities now are moving to ban a democratic party for which millions of people have voted for. This is unlawful, undemocratic and a violation of civil and political rights.
For four years, the former HDP leader Selahattin Demirtaş has been innocently in prison, like so many opposition members, members of parliament, mayors and journalists.”
The Indonesian party called “on the Turkish authorities to immediately halt the ban proceedings, stop the repression against the HDP and to release all HDP elected representatives from prison.”
