The Confederation for Kurdistan Communities in Germany (KON-MED) released a statement on the fascist assault against the Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) Izmır Provincial Organisation Office which tragically ended with the killing of Deniz Poyraz.

KON-MED’s statement said the following: “The Turkish state governed by the AKP-MHP fascist and mafia alliance aims at covering its internal crises with massacres. Once again Erdogan’s gangs are targeting the HDP.”
KON-MED reminded that “earlier this morning, the HDP Izmır Provincial Organisation office which is under police supervision all day long, was assaulted by the gangs of Erdogan and [Interior Minister] Soylu. The assailant entered the party office and killed our comrade Deniz Poyraz, a member of the HDP.

This killing exposed the Turkish state’s racist and anti-Kurdish attitude. The German government which never hesitates to support the Turkish state cannot any longer ignore these massacres. The German authorities must immediately take action against these assaults.”
KON-MED continued: “We fiercely condemn this assault carried out by the AKP-MHP-Mafia. We, as KON-MED, call upon all councils affiliated to our confederations, our people and all institutions demanding democracy to take to the streets urgently and stand by the HDP.”
