Activists in Heilbronn celebrate the 43rd anniversary of the establishment of the PKK

The 43rd anniversary of the PKK was celebrated in Heilbronn, Germany.

Kurdish politicians Faysal Sarıyıldız and Abdullah Demirbaş made a speech at the celebration held at the Democratic Kurdish Community Center.

After a minute’s silence in memory of the martyrs of the Kurdistan revolution, former mayor of Sur, Abdullah Demirbaş said: “The PKK struggle united all peoples, beliefs and different cultures. It brought together different people living in different lands. The PKK movement finished off those who wanted to end the Kurds. Thanks to the PKK, Kurds took their place in the world and gained their identity.”

Former MP Faisal Sarıyıldız drew attention to the brutality the Turkish state inflicted on the Kurds and said: “The invading fascist Turkish state used horrendous brutality against the Kurds. But the resistance of so many martyrs turned into a great popular uprising in the four parts of Kurdistan against brutality. Now they use chemical weapons. Everyone should know that no matter what happens, the Kurds will win under the leadership of the PKK movement.”
