STOCKHOLM, Sweden, — Kurds in Sweden condemned the news published in Express newspaper about the Kurdish-Swedish politician Evin Cetin in which reference is made to PJAK as “terrorist” organisation.
Hundreds of Kurds gathered outside of Swedish Social Democrat Party on Tuesday afternoon to protest the forced resignation of Evin Cetin by the party and also the allegation made in regard to both Evin Cetin and Kurdistan’s Free Life Party (PJAK).
Express newspaper had published an article on 28th September on Evin Cetin’s visit to Qendil Mountain showing her dancing among PJAK’s guerrillas; she was forced to resign by the party’s leader who described PJAK as a “terrorist” organisation.
Kurds in Sweden condemned such an accusation as mere remark of degradation on the Kurds as well as the Kurdish resistance movement struggling against the state-terror in Kurdistan.
Kurdish people from the division of Kurdistan in 1923 between the four most aggressive and violent states in the world—Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria— have been subjected to the most horrific acts of state terror ranging from mass exodus to genocide.
Not only the European states have not broken their dead silent, they have also backed and sponsored state terrorism against the Kurdish people. Labelling of a Kurdish organisation such as PJAK, which struggle against the Iranian state’s terrorism, is just a tip of iceberg.
To show their abhorrence toward such an inhumane policy the Kurds in Stockholm gathered outside of Social Democrat Party on Tuesday at 18:00 chanting slogans in support of Evin Cetin such as; “We would also dance with the guerrillas”, denoting nothing is wrong with dancing with guerrillas.
