Each and every citizen of Turkey is equal and has the same rights and freedoms, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Sept. 23 in a message on the occasion of Eid al-Adha.
The outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and its sympathizers aim to "set brothers at odds who address the same kiblah and share a common past and future dreams" he stated.
Turkey and the region have been passing through an examination, the President said, noting that some circles were using the PKK to bring "fire in neighboring" countries to Turkey and destroy the nation's brotherhood.
He also called on citizens to help more than 2 million Syrian and Iraqi refugees in Turkey. - Ankara
