European Parliament Turkey Rapporteur Sanchez Amor: The will of the people cannot be usurped!

The EU Turkey rapporteur Nacho Sanchez Amor said that the will of the people of Van cannot be usurped.

Protests about the attempt to strip co-mayor of Van, Abdullah Zeydan, of his rights, continue to pour through from all over Europe. 

The European Parliament Turkey rapporteur Nacho Sanchez Amor wrote on X: "Van candidate AbdullahZeydan got 55% of votes, but the mayorship goes to the loser AKP candidate (27%) due to a last-minute judicial maneuver and despite previous checks by YSK (Electoral Board). The clear will expressed by the citizens should not be usurped (again) anywhere."
