The fact that the PKK terrorist organization (Kurdistan Workers’ Party, note) and its supporters have been holding demonstrations in Vienna for a few days is further evidence of how little honest the fight against terror is, “the Turkish Foreign Ministry said further. “It is by no means acceptable that these demonstrations will be used to propagate the PKK terrorist organization, look away when it uses its symbols, and target our country,” the Turkish ministry said. We also “condemn the hard work of the police, which has injured young people of Turkish origin and damaged businesses belonging to the Turkish community.”
The Austrian authorities should take the fight with the PKK, which is classified by the EU as a terrorist organization, seriously and not use the topic for a populist policy, it says in the broadcast. The “concerns” of the Turkish side should be expressed in an interview with Ambassador Wimmer, in particular regarding the four-day demonstrations “by PKK-related groups” in Vienna and the “use of violence against Turkish young people”.
