TEV-ÇAND Europe issued a written statement saying that the Turkish occupation attacks launched on 9 October are a continuation of the conspiracy against Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan which started on 9 October 1998.

TEV-ÇAND said: "The hegemonic forces aim at eliminating the Kurdish freedom movement and  carrying out attacks on the Middle East. Our leadership has frustrated this international conspiracy and put forward an alternative trough his paradigm. These ideas and thoughts came to life in Rojava. The Turkish state and its mercenaries wanted to eliminate this new model of life for the peoples of the world."
 
TEV-ÇAND added: "The war against the Kurds is really about the war against the existence and gains of the Kurdish people. The aim of the Turkish occupation is to destroy culture." 

TEV-ÇAND underlined that a new Ottoman Empire is what is trying to be put into practice and added that "the Turkish state has displayed all forced and assets to achieve the extermination of the Kurds".

TEV-ÇAND Europe condemned the Turkish state and called on all parties, organizations, intellectuals and artists to work against the occupation.
