Position on the PKK

Emine Ayna, co-chair of the DTP, said in an interview about the PKK that her party does not deny the PKK and does not see it as a terrorist organization. In another interview, she justifies this attitude as follows:

"If you ( Turkey , EU and the USA ) equate terror with a military struggle for rights, you should also have called northern Iraq's Kurdish parties that fought against Saddam as terrorists."

Police and legal prosecution

At the end of September 2009, the 11th High Criminal Court in Ankara decided that Emine Ayna and Selahattin Demirtaş should be brought before the police for an interrogation by the public prosecutor. Emine Ayna has already announced nothing.
