Dozens of writers, activists and organisations in South Kurdistan made a statement on the developments in Rojava. The statement emphasised that everyone must fulfil their role in protecting Rojava against Turkey’s goal of occupation, genocide and destruction.
The statement said: “The Regional Government must fulfil its duty to provide health and food supplies to Rojava. The fall of the Assad regime after recent events has created opportunities for the construction of a common life for the peoples. Today, we are witnessing the Turkish state and its mercenaries launching a war plan against Rojava that violates all moral standards and human rights. This is a step of occupation and directed against the Kurds in North and East Syria. These are worrying developments and the beginning of the genocide and extermination of the Kurds in Rojava and Syria.
At this stage, it is the duty of all political parties and organisations in South Kurdistan to stand against the Turkish invasion attacks.
In this historic process, it is the duty of all political parties in South Kurdistan to protect the Kurds in Rojava. Everyone must play their historic role in this process.
The duty of the regional government is to fulfil its commitments to provide humanitarian, health and food aid to Rojava within the framework of legal measures, as per the previous decision of the Kurdistan Region Parliament.
As writers, activists and organisations working in the field of genocide, we state that a genocide must never happen again. Therefore, we warn all parties about the aims of the Turkish state. The main goal of the Turkish state is to carry out a genocide and destroy the Kurds in Rojava and Syria.”

International reactions against the attacks of the Turkish state and allied gang groups called the Syrian National Army (SNA) against the regions under the control of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (Rojava) continue.
Fabian Molina, Member of the Federal Parliament for the Swiss Socialist Party and Member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Alex Farinelli, Member of the Federal Parliament for the Liberal-Radical Party, Erich Vontobel, Member of the Federal Parliament for the Federal Democratic Union, Balthasar Glättli, Member of the Federal Parliament for the Green Party, and Stefan Müller-Altermatt, Member of the Parliament for the Centre Fraction (Die Mitte), submitted a motion to the Federal Council highlighting the threats posed by the attacks on the autonomous region of North and East Syria and calling on the Swiss Federal Council to take action against the ongoing attacks.
Attacks pose a serious threat to ethnic and religious minorities
The motion pointed out that the Turkish state's attacks on the Autonomous Administration areas of North and East Syria jeopardise the stability of the region and said: “The attacks pose a serious threat to ethnic and religious minorities such as Kurdish, Armenian, Assyrian, Yazidi and Christian communities.”
Remarking that the ongoing attacks against the region have reactivated ISIS cells, the motion said: “The destabilisation in the region could also lead to the revival of extremist groups such as ISIS and new refugee movements. Due to its humanitarian tradition and its responsibility under international law, Switzerland has an obligation to work to end this escalation without violating its neutrality.”
‘The Council should use all foreign policy instruments’
The parliamentarians appealed to the Swiss Federal Council, saying: “The Council should use all foreign policy instruments within the framework of neutrality to ensure the protection of ethnic and religious minorities in Syria and to work for de-escalation by ending attacks on northern and eastern Syria.”
The motion submitted to the Swiss Federal Council was also signed by a large number of deputies from five political parties.
