European Union-Turkey Joint Parliamentary Commission (JPC) co-Chair Joost Lagendijk on Thursday called on Kurdish politicians to break their ties with the terrorist Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
Speaking to the Anatolia news agency ahead of his visit to Diyarbakir, a mainly Kurdish city in the southeast, to participate in meeting entitled 'Civil Rights in the Southeast,' Lagendijk said that Turkey has to put an end to the PKK's violent tactics and expressed the hope that Kurdish politicians would contribute to this process by acting courageously."
