“Families holding sit-in protest against PKK terror group in southeastern Turkey”
Vice President Fuat Oktay spoke at an event in Ankara to commemorate the Karbala Martyrs in Ankara province.
The outcry of the mothers in southeastern Turkey for their children abducted by PKK terror group is the most dignified stance against terrorism, the country’s vice president said on Monday.
Fuat Oktay said the mothers’ protest "is hope for peace."
"The outcry and resistance of the mothers, whose children have been kidnapped [by the PKK] to the mountains in Diyarbakir, are the most honorable stance against those who want terror and conflict," Oktay said.
"It is in our hands to frustrate all the efforts of those who try to create enmities on the basis of ethnicities and sects [...]," Oktay said.
