These murders committed on French soil are even more disturbing as they occurred at the same time as negotiations were undertaken between the Turkish government and the Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan.

As members of Area IV of the UNI Europa Women's Committee, which include a large number of professional associations of the largest trade unions confederations in France, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands, we strongly condemn these barbaric executions and offer our condolences to the families’ victims, as well as to all the Kurdish people. We ask the French authorities to shed full light, as fast as possible, on these crimes and to guarantee the right to security of Kurdish men and women activists present in France.
