A solidarity message by vetaran kurdish-Austrian physician

Dr. Wiriya Rawenduzi

Recently Turkish prime minister declared they are accepting the rights of kurdish people, and the kurds are co-owners of the country, but now he uses all his might to close down ROJ TV, a tv station which is the voice of a nation for freedom, cultural rights and democracy. Turkish government must practically prove that its policies and attitudes towards kurds have changed , but just not in words. I condemn the eventual closure of ROJ TV with all my might and I want its continuation. I hope the "others" learn democracy, critisizm. I wish further success for ROJ TV.
