PYD call on West to stop repression of Kurds
The Information and Relations Centre Of Democratic Union Party (PYD) released a statement to point out how developments in Syria often are treated without mentioning what is happening in the Kurdish area of the country.
"We have always said - says the press release - that we are a part of the Syrian revolution and that the Kurdish people in western Kurdistan is most in need of freedom and democracy having suffered from oppression and tyranny under the rule of Al-Baath regime, which lasted for half a century".
The PYD underlines that in "Kurdish areas of northern Syria now we are witnessing the beginning of a genocide campaign against Kurdish people, Turkish regime who brought mercenaries through its borders and pushed them against Kurdish people in Ashrafieh and Sheikh-Maqsud districts in Aleppo, and launched a bloody campaign against Efrin region and its villages, especially Qustul-Jendo and Yazi-Bagh". The aim is "to transfer the conflict to the Kurdish areas deliberately, especially because they know that these areas are under the control of Kurdish people and their institutions eventhough there is no existence for any worthwhile regime forces in these areas". What is happening, says the PYD "is planned thoughtfully by the biggest player in the region, namely the Turkish system, to push the Kurdish region into fighting so to displace the Kurdish population into the territory of South Kurdistan (North Iraq) or to make them as refugees in the north of Kurdistan (Turkey) to recruit these refugees in their interest, and eliminate Kurdish presence in western Kurdistan (North Eastern Syria), and even to take over the oil wells in the Kurdish region".
The statement recalls that "sadly it sounds to us that the Kurdish tragedy history is repeating itself in Western Kurdistan again; Kurds become a victim of the resources of their country".
The PYD call on people on the West not to remain silent "and to put pressure on the actors in this crisis, to stop this genocide, and to stand with our Kurdish people in this ordeal".
