Commemorating the martyrs of the second Paris massacre, Kongra Star said, "It is now clear that these attacks and massacres were carried out by the Turkish state with NATO support."
Emine Kara (Evîn Goyî), a pioneer of the women's liberation movement and member of the KCK Executive Committee, artist Mîr Perwer (Mehmet Şirin Aydın) and patriot Abdurrahman Kızıl were martyred in an armed attack on the Ahmet Kaya Cultural Association in Paris on December 23, 2022. Kongra Star Assembly made a statement on the first anniversary of the second massacre in Paris.
The Assembly paid tribute to the three martyrs of the Kurdish people and stated that they all worked for the cause of Kurds, peace and democracy. It also saluted Martyr Evîn Goyî's resistance and struggle for women's freedom.
The Assembly noted that the French authorities have not revealed the perpetrators of the massacre of PKK founding member Sakine Cansız (Sara), Fidan Doğan (Rojbîn) and Leyla Şaylemez (Ronahî) in Paris on January 9, 2013.
The statement continued:
"It is now clear that these attacks and massacres were carried out by the Turkish state with NATO support. These are crimes of genocide against women and women's free will."
Commemorating all the martyrs of freedom in the person of Evîn Goyî and her companions, Kongra Star vowed to follow their path for freedom, democracy and peace.
Kongra Star called on France to fulfill its duty, to reveal the facts of these crimes committed on its soil and to hold the perpetrators to account, and urged women's organizations, lawyers and those advocating for democracy to take a stand.
