Director of Communications Altun: “Last night, they displayed PKK’s so-called flag on Swedish parliament. We expect Swedish authorities to investigate incident, hold accountable those responsible.”

Presidency’s Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun shared a post on social media stating that members of the PKK terrorist organization projected the image of the so-called PKK flag on the Parliament building in Sweden last night.

Director of Communications Altun said:

“It is completely unacceptable that PKK terrorists continue to operate freely in Sweden — which has applied for NATO membership. Last night, they displayed PKK’s so-called flag on the Swedish parliament. We expect the Swedish authorities to investigate this incident, hold accountable those responsible, and stop self-identified members of PKK —which the EU recognizes as a terrorist entity— from operating on Swedish soil. We sincerely hope that the new anti-terror law, which will enter into force on 1 June, will be properly enforced. Specifically, the Swedish authorities must prevent PKK members from demonstrating on 4 June if they are serious about addressing Türkiye’s concerns.”
