Kurdish artists call on people to go to the polls tomorrow to "build a new future"

Kurdish artists Hemid Urmiye and Hozan Kawa called on people to go to the polls and vote for the Erdoğan regime to go.

Drawing attention to the importance of the presidential election, Kurdish artists Hemid Urmiye and Hozan Kawa said that they expect young people in particular to both go to the polls and lead the way to get rid of the Erdoğan regime.

Speaking to ANF, Kurdish artist Hemid Urmiye said that the government was shaken and stopped on 14 May, and that on Sunday it should be completely destroyed. Urmiye said: “Today, we are witnessing a great persecution and massacre of the Kurdish people. Thousands of Kurds, beginning with the Kurdish People's Leader, are being held in prisons. Considering this situation, the Kurdish people should go to the polls. They should put their hand on their conscience and cast their vote. The AKP-MHP government is attacking the Kurdish people every day, looking for opportunities for new attacks. It is attacking Kurds in the free mountains, Maxmur, Shengal and Rojava. It wants to destroy Rojava, born by the blood of the martyrs.”

Urmiye said: "Let's destroy this fascist government by going to the polls tomorrow." He added: "No matter what anyone says, let's cast our votes. Don’t think that your vote won't change anything. With one vote, this fascist order can be overthrown. Everyone should go to the polls and use the vote to overthrow the fascist Erdoğan government.”

To build our future

Artist Hozan Kawa also invited everyone to cast their vote. Hozan Kawa said: “No one should be marginalized because of their free thought and ethnic identity. In order to eliminate economic, political and social problems, I invite all segments of society, especially those who favor democracy, peace, brotherhood, peace and prosperity, to go to the polls. Come on! Let's build our future with this election. Let's go to the polls on 28 May."
