Swedish internationalists drew attention to the war crimes committed by the Turkish state in Kurdistan by projecting images on Gröna Lund, a sports and entertainment arena in the capital Stockholm. The images of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan symbolizing cooperation with ISIS were projected on the wall. The struggle against fascism was reflected with the slogan ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’.

Activists made statements on social media using the hashtags ‘We see all your crimes’, ‘Let's crush Turkish fascism’ and ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’, saying that the fascist Erdogan regime accelerated the Kurdish genocide campaign, using all kinds of weapons, including chemical weapons, while the OPCW remained silent.

The statement underlined that the Swedish government also turned a blind eye to these crimes and even extradited Kurdish refugees to Turkey to please Erdogan. The activists said that Sweden became a partner in a war crime by accelerating the sale of weapons to the Turkish state in return for NATO membership.

At the end of the statement, a call was made to attend the central march to be held in Stockholm on 21 January.
