The French ambassador to Turkey, Hervé Magro, was summoned by the Turkish government on Monday, and Ankara protested what it perceives as “anti-Turkey propaganda” in France, since the killing of three Kurds in Paris, according to a report by a Turkish diplomatic source. .
“We express our dissatisfaction with the propaganda launched by PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party, editor’s note) circles against our country, the French government and certain politicians being used as propaganda tools,” criticizes this source.

Following the crime committed on Friday by William M. and which left three dead, members of the Kurdish community spoke of a “terrorist attack”, even implicating Turkey. Following clashes on the sidelines of a rally in support of the Kurds held in Paris on Saturday, a special adviser to Recep Tayyip Erdogan pointed to the influence of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, the PKK, in the armed struggle against Turkey since 1984.
“The same PKK that has killed thousands of Turks, Kurds and security forces over the last 40 years. Now they are burning the streets of Paris. Will they keep quiet?” This was stated by Ibrahim Kalin on Twitter.
