Kurdish women met with representatives from the Parliament Presidency, CSU and the Greens, and informed the officials about the AKP government’s policies of political genocide. AKP government’s recent proposal condoning sexual exploitation was also discussed during the meetings, and women emphasized the importance of Germany’s imposition of sanctions on Turkey.
