KURDISH officials have demanded that Turkey be charged with war crimes for its alleged use of chemical weapons during its illegal invasion and five-month bombardment of Iraqi Kurdistan.
The Kurdistan Communities Union (KCK), an umbrella organisation that includes the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), called today for “all forces of democracy” to bring Turkey to court for crimes against humanity.
It accused the European Union, the United States and the United Nations of complicity with the military offensive while the Turkish state “is using chemical weapons, setting fire to forests and oppressing the Kurdish people.”
