A member of the Kurdistan National Congress (KNK), Farkhat Patiev, called Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s policy against Kurds, both in Turkey and abroad, is "genocide and total extermination," Sputnik News reports.
"In our opinion, Erdogan's policy is genocide and total extermination of the (Kurdish) people, both in Turkey and abroad," Patiev said at the Rossiya Segodnya press center in Moscow.
"Human rights organizations are unnecessarily politicized, quietly watching the terror happening in Syria and Turkey… One can understand Germany with its multi-million Turkish diaspora, but we should not appease Turkey," Patiev added.
