HDP Diyarbakir MP Dersim Dağ said that the KDP has become the projection of the AKP-MHP in South Kurdistan and added: "The KDP is opening its land to invasion attacks. The KDP has never partnered so much with the AKP-MHP alliance. In this sense, they are also responsible for the massacres carried out by Turkey in South Kurdistan."

Turkey continues to attack South Kurdistan and on 20 July carried out a massacre in Zakho. Nine people were killed, including children, and many were injured.

Dağ told ANF that many attacks against South Kurdistan have taken place in the last year and added that the target of the attacks were the gains of the Kurds and and the Kurdish Freedom Struggle.

'KDP is the projection of the AKP-MHP'

Dağ continued: “There was an attack carried out jointly by the AKP-MHP and the KDP. The KDP is opening its lands to invasion. Today, the policies of AKP-MHP, not KDP, are in effect in South Kurdistan. The Turkish state is attempting to occupy that land by maintaining its physical presence.”

'The target is the gains of the Kurds'

Underlining that the attacks carried out in Kurdistan in general are "attacks to complete the Kurdish genocide", Dağ said: "This war is a war against the Kurdish people. Although the KDP does not want to see this, we see that these attacks are aimed at the gains of the South Kurdish people. Because we saw what kind of reaction Turkey had after the independence referendum. Although these attacks are portrayed as an attack on the Kurdish Freedom Struggle, it should be known that they are basically a product of the policy of completing the Kurdish genocide throughout Kurdistan. Because, on the centenary of the Turkish republic, we see that an effort to rebuild the borders of the National Pact is in effect. These attacks are part of the rhetoric that 'Mosul and Kirkuk are Turkish cities', something Turkey repeats at every opportunity."

'Kurds will not forget KDP's betrayal'

HDP Amed MP Dersim Dağ added: "Civilians have always lost their lives in previous attacks. Today, we are faced with the same situation in Zakho. The KDP did not react firmly to this massacre. In this sense, the KDP is also responsible for these massacres. The Kurds will never forget the attitude of the KDP. The Kurds themselves will hold them accountable. When the day comes, the KDP will have to face the Kurdish people. The KDP will remain a black stain on Kurdish history. The Kurds will not forget the KDP's betrayal and sooner or later they will ask for account.”
