CONTINUED TERROR AND TARGETED KILLINGS OF THE TURKMENS IN IRAQ

ITF Europe Representative's letter to:
MEP Struan Stevenson, Chairman of the E.U. Delegation for Relations with Iraq at the European Parliament
and MEPs of Human Rights (DROI) at the European Parliament.



IRAQI TURKMEN FRONT
European Representation
Belgium
22nd September 2011.


Dear MEP Struan Stevenson, Chairman of the E.U. Delegation for Relations with Iraq,

SUBJECT: CONTINUED TERROR AND TARGETED KILLINGS OF THE TURKMENS IN IRAQ.

For your information, the campaign of targeted killings of Turkmen intellectuals, politicians and businessmen continues in Iraq and especially in Kirkuk in the absence of security and the will to protect the Turkmen community as the Turkmens are the only community in Iraq without any militias or armed forces and as their region is under Kurdish Peshmerga control since 9th April 2003.

The aim is to terrorize the Turkmen community and eliminate their leadership either by killing them or forcing them to leave the Turkmen region.

Indeed, the targeted assassinations, kidnappings and racketeering of the Turkmen politicians, intellectuals and businessmen have intensified lately especially in Kirkuk.

During the last two weeks the following crimes have been committed against the Turkmens in Kirkuk:

On 5th September 2011, Dr. Yildirim Abbas Demirci, a renowned Turkmen neurosurgeon and his brother Mr. Zainelabidin have been assassinated in front of their home in Tisin district of Kirkuk.

On 10th September 2011, a Turkmen businessman from Taza Hurmatu was wounded during an attempted kidnapping.

On 12th September 2011, a member of the security team of Mr. Hassan Turan, the Turkmen President of the Provincial Council of Kirkuk has been targeted and was seriously injured.

On 17th September 2011, Mr. Ghassan Ibrahim a member of the security team of Mr. Kasim Hamza, a Turkmen member of the Provincial Council of Kerkuk, has been killed by ‘unknown gunmen’.

On 18th September 2011, Mr Mohammed Radhi Mohammed, a Turkmen engineer was wounded together with his two sons by a remote controlled explosive attached to his car. He and his sons have been gravely injured.

On 21st September 2011, Mr. Qassim Mohammed, a Turkmen businessman was killed by a remote controlled explosive attached to his car and his wife was also wounded in the attack.

And the campaign continues in the complete absence of protection and security for the Turkmens of Iraq.
Despite the fact that Turkmens have complained to the local authorities about the lack of security in the Turkmen regions (which are de facto occupied and controlled by the Kurdish militias since 9th April 2003) and to the central authorities in Baghdad about the absence of any adequate protection for the Turkmens in Iraq and have asked them either for an effective protection from the central government forces or to allow them to form their own forces to protect themselves, similar to the Peshmerga militia of the Kurds and the Sahwa militia of the Arabs.

Unfortunately to-date, none of these demands have been met and the Turkmens remain unprotected and continue to be targeted and ethnically cleansed.


May I ask you to inform your colleagues in the Iraq Delegation as well as in your political parliamentary group in the European Parliament about the tragedy of the Turkmens who are subjected to ethnic cleansing since March 2003.

In the absence of an adequate protection of the Turkmen community in Iraq, may I ask you to raise this issue with the Iraqi authorities.

Thank you for your attention and understanding.

Yours truly,


Dr. Hassan Aydinli
Iraqi Turkmen Front
EU Representative.

Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan UN General Assembly Speech

Erdogan: Israel is source of instability in Middle East









Turkish Prime Minister, Rajab Tayyeb Erdogan, confirmed in a speech to the UN General Assembly Thursday evening that Israel is the source of instability in the Middle East.



"The UN should be a power of right and justice for peace not war," he pointed out, adding that "In order to achieve these criteria, there is a fundamental problem which is the Israeli-Arab conflict."



Erdogan considered that interests and politics prevent justice to be achieved, pointed out that Israel does not implement the UN resolutions, wondering if the UN Security Council has the power to impose the same sanctions on Israel as it imposes them on Sudan.



"Israel is producing nuclear bombs and nobody takes action against it, but if any state does that, the international community immediately imposes sanctions," he state.



He stressed that Israel must respect others in order to maintain its security, saying that the ongoing Israeli violence should not be continued.



"Israel did not comply with 89 international resolutions," said he.



"We must impose peace by power because it is the means of the UN," emphasized he, considering, "Turkey wants peace to spread in the Middle East, and we have no problem with the Israel people but with the Israeli government."

Türkmen Açılımı


Irak Türkmen Cephesi

Bu günlerde Türkmen toplumu arasında en çok dolaşan soru, Türkmen Açılımının ne demek olduğunu, Türkmenlere ne getirecek, bu açılıma inananların, düşüncesinin bu konuda net anlamı nedir? Açıklamasını arzu etmektedirler.

Toplumumuzun hiçte endişesi olmasın, Irak Türkmen Cephesinin, Türkmen Açılımı düşüncesine inanmak, Türkmen politikası konuları yanında Kültürel, sosyal, ekonomik, ve güvenlik gibi meselelerimizi ve konuları, diğer gruplara, etnik olsun veya siyasi kitle olsun onlara anlatmak, açıklamak Türkmen toplumunun kendi dar çerçevesinde kalmamalı, ülkede olan tüm siyasi bloklar ve onlara mensup halk kitlelerine davamızı anlatmalıyız, işte buda açılımla gerçekleşir.

Burada en önemli mesele, Türkmen Cephesinin inandığı tüm yakın ve uzak hadeflerinden ve çizdiği milli stratejisinden, davasından hiç bir taviz vermemek şartıyle bu açılım gerçekleşecek.

Irak Türkmen Cephesi, Türkmenlerin hükümetten, parlamentodan Türkmen isteklerini, beklentilerini, gözardı olan haklarını özellikle Türkmenlerin elinden alınan veya verilmeyen kavmi haklarını almak için her hangi bir siyasi kitlelerle ve etnik gruplar olsun veya siyaset bazında olan bloklarla olsun oturup, kendi davasını, tartışıp, konuşarak, isteğini onlara anlatacaktır. Yalnız siyasi konular değil, diğer tüm meseleleri anlatmak, örneğin: Her hangi bir Türkmen Sivil Toplumu Örgütü bir Kültürel, sosyal, veya diğer alanlarda bir faaliyet yaparsa, veya bir Türkmen büyüğü hakkında yapılan bir anma törenine, yalnız Türkmenler çağırılmamalı, Türkmen olmayan diğerleri davet olmalı, meselemizi inancımızı, büyüklerimizi, sanatımızı, devletten, beklentilerimizi ve isteklerimizi onlarla paylaşmak, işte Türkmen açılımı budur.

Çünkü bundan önce, bir çok meselemiz, özellikle milli davamızı Irak halkına doğru açılım yapılmamıştır, hedefimiz, isteğimiz ülkenin toprağına, bayrağına saygımız, bağlılığımızı onlara anlatmamıştık, işte düşüncesinde olduğumuz açılım, kendi milli davamızı, her şeyimizi, isteğimizi, gözardı olan, kavmi haklarımızı, diğerlerine anlatmak, işte Irak Türkmen Cephesinin inandığı açılım budur.

Aksitakdirde, Türkmenler, hiç bir tarafla, etnik grupla veya siyasi bloklarla ikili veya üçlü bir ittifaka varamayız ve açılım yapmaz, eğer iki taraf arasında bir denklik veya üçüncü bir zâmin taraf olmarsa, örneğin: Birleşmiş Milletler Örgütü gibi bir Kevvetli taraf sorumluluğu üstlenmerse,.

Bunun için, Türkmen açılımı sözünden kimsenin endişesi olmasın, dedikoduya yol açılmasın, milli, kavmi davamız, emin ve kuvvetli ellerdedir.

To fight corruption Barzani has to clean the house / Barzani’s Villa’s in America


By Michael Rubin: – 10.9.2011 – Against the backdrop of the Arab Spring protests and corollary demonstrations in Iraqi Kurdistan, regional president Masud Barzani promised to crack down on corruption. “I am determined to combat corruption and introduce reforms. Together, let us make this the year of preserving our unity, fighting corruption, and finalizing the integration of the KRG security institutions,” he said. Masrour Barzani, his eldest son and heir apparent, has also promised accountability for the corrupt. ”If someone inside the KDP is accused of corruption, he should face the court, like any ordinary person. The KDP is against corruption and is putting all its efforts into reforms and eradicating corruption,” he declared in a magazine interview last month.There is growing evidence, however, that in order to be seen as champions against corruption, the Barzanis may have to clean up their own house by creating transparency with regard to the family’s dealings.



In October 2010, the local press in the Washington, DC, area was abuzz with news about the sale of one of the region’s choicest mansions. Topping the list in McLean, Virginia, at a price tag of just over $10 million, was this mansion, less than five kilometers from the Central Intelligence Agency’s headquarters. According to this real estate listing, the mansion not only has four floors, but a five-car garage. Other descriptions boast six bedrooms and eight bathrooms. The house was sold, according to a Washington society magazine (see pages 90-91), by an Iranian American developer and aspiring singer. While the house is a residence, the purchaser is listed on public records as Apeks, a limited liability company (LLC).



Apeks, LLC, itself is a bit mysterious. There are firms named Apeks in a number of countries—Russia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, and the United States. One American firm with that name was founded by an Ohio resident as a pretty standard consulting operation, but has since been sold after which the name apparently lapsed.



Less than three weeks before the purchase of the mega-mansion, however, the name Apeks, LLC, was again registered, this time with the Commonwealth of Virginia’s State Corporation Commission. At the time of the registration, the address matched that of Zell Law, a boutique law firm which has since folded into a larger firm and now resides at a different address from that of Apeks’ registration. On August 24, 2011, I sent an email to the lawyer who headed the now-closed firm, inquiring about Apeks, LLC. He responded that he would not be able to share information regarding Apeks, LLC. According to his work profile, his expertise includes estate and business planning, and the preservation of wealth. In other words, his specialty includes shielding his clients’ wealth against those who might take too close an interest in it, such as governments who tax it.



If Apeks, LLC, has a relationship with the Barzani family, the electronically-accessible public records do not directly show it. Under Virginia law, Apeks, LLC, does not yet need to report its activities or disclose its officers online.



There is ample evidence, however, to suggest that Masrour Barzani may be the new owner of the mansion. The previous owner and developer of the mansion was an aspiring Iranian American singer. After Los Angeles, the Washington, DC, area is a center of the Iranian Diaspora in the United States, and so sustains Persian language book stores and newspapers. In an interview with a local Persian language newspaper, the previous owner ignored Apeks, LLC, and bragged that the “house…had been sold to the son of a powerful foreign politician.”



In addition, area residents and Kurds living in the area say Masrour Barzani has repeatedly stayed in the mansion during his frequent trips to Washington. The residence is close to the Tysons Corner Mall, home to many swank shops, where Masud Barzani’s sons shop and dine during trips to Washington. An express mail envelope sent to Masrour Barzani at the mansion was accepted by the occupant. A representative of the Kurdistan Regional Government, when contacted by email regarding the property, declined comment.



In Iraqi Kurdistan, it has always been troubling that the ruling families appear to conflate personal, party and government property. If, for example, Masud Barzani retires after his second term, it is unclear whether he would forfeit the Sar-e Rash resort he calls home to his successor; other retired officials have not evacuated the homes they acquired. Nor have many of the political leaders and the family dynasties they spawned ever explained to the public how they acquired such vast wealth when, just a couple decades ago, they were penniless. Having a shell corporation own the swank property would also make sense, given the possibility that Masrour Barzani could be sued by victims who allege mistreatment by the intelligence and security services which he heads and who believe him to be complicit in their mistreatment.



Transparency matters. Regardless of the mansion’s ownership, if President Barzani is sincere about combating corruption, he should require that every official serving in his government detail their property holdings and business interests, not only in Iraqi Kurdistan, but also abroad, and demand any officials in the Kurdistan Regional Government also reveal properties owned or held by other individuals or corporations in which they reside. This will combat conflicts of interest. Certainly, if President Barzani is sincere, he should not wish a discrepancy to develop between the promises he makes to the Kurdish public and the actions of his family.



Leadership emerges from the top, and so it might behoove President Barzani to set an example by making his family Kurdistan’s most transparent. After all, while President Barzani considers himself a great populist and nationalist leader, ordinary Kurds may find troubling luxuries family members acquire, not only in Kurdistan but also apparently overseas. Such mansions, after all, are more reminiscent of those collected by the Saddam, Mubarak, Ben Ali, and Qadhafi clans; they should not be acquired by persons whose government salaries would be too minimal to allow them to afford. Perhaps the president’s office should be grand because his office represents Kurdistan. However, insatiable appetites for luxury are not the image which the Barzani’s should be projecting to the people of Kurdistan, nor do such palaces bring the Kurds respect as a developing democracy among governments and officials abroad.

Turkey's Bombing of PKK Camps Exposes Rift Among Kurds

By Guy Taylor | 12 Sep 2011


The slow-burning war pitting militarized Kurdish groups in Iraq against the governments of Turkey and Iran has escalated since mid-August. Most notably, Turkish fighter jets have flown multiple bombing runs on bases of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).

The Turkish bombing campaign, occurring inside northern Iraq, is reportedly being conducted in retaliation for a series of PKK attacks that have left more than two dozen Turkish soldiers dead since the beginning of the summer. Meanwhile, a PKK offshoot known as the Party for a Free Life in Kurdistan (PJAK) is engaged in ongoing clashes with Iranian forces, with Iranian officials claiming last week that 30 PJAK members had been killed in fighting near the Iraqi border.

The multifaceted conflict reached new heights of complexity last week when Massoud Barzani, president of Iraq's Kurdish Regional Government, called on both the PKK and PJAK to stop using northern Iraq as a base for plotting attacks on Turkish and Iranian targets.

Barzani has in the past defended the Kurdish guerrillas operating in the Qandil Mountains. Why he now appeared to come out on the side of the Turks and Iranians is the subject of some debate. World Politics Review contributor and Kurdistan analyst Hannes Artens says it is vital "not to look at the Kurds as one unit across all these countries."

Artens, who is currently a doctoral researcher specializing in Iraqi Kurdistan at the University of Exeter in the U.K., told Trend Lines that "there's no such thing as pan-Kurdish solidarity between the Iraqi Kurds and the PKK."

"They each run their own show," he explained. "The main interest of the Iraqi Kurdish parties is to keep what they have got -- they have autonomy status in Iraq, and it depends essentially and vitally on the good will of the U.S. and Turkey."

"Any consideration of pan-Kurdish solidarity, or co-ethnic alliance is secondary," added Artens, who noted that 90 percent of all imports in Iraqi Kurdistan are presently coming from Turkey. "What do the Iraqi Kurds and Massoud Barzani do in order to keep this relationship going and to assure Turkey's good will? They walk a tightrope, using the PKK as leverage. Basically, they allow Turkey every couple of years to strike at the PKK, but at the same time, they have an interest in the PKK not being completely annihilated, because as long as the PKK sits in the mountains, they can use it as a bargaining chip with Turkey."

The same logic runs in the other direction, with Turkey using the PKK presence in northern Iraq to exert leverage over Iraqi Kurds, said Artens, who contends that the United States largely accepts Turkish military action against the PKK because Turkey is an alley in the wider U.S. war on terror. It's worth noting recent reports that Turkey has invited the United States to base a fleet of Predator drones on Turkish soil for cross-border strikes on the PKK, elements of which appear on the U.S. State Deparment's list of foreign terrorist organizations.

While such factors help to explain Barzani's remarks last week, other evidence suggests that Iraqi Kurds are far from compliant to Turkey and Iran when it comes to cracking down on the PKK.

According to Edmund Ghareeb, a Kurdistan expert and professor at American University's School of International Service in Washington, Barzani's Kurdistan Democratic Party, along with its coalition of other Kurdish parties, including the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan and the Islamic Group in Kurdistan, "took the issue to the Iraqi parliament and asked the Iraqi government to call on Turkey and Iran to stop interfering and end their attacks on Iraqi territory."

"They also called on the United Nations to take more responsibility to pressure Turkey and Iran to apologize to the Iraqi Kurdish people and to pay reparations," said Ghareeb. "Both the recent Iranian and Turkish attacks inside Iraq led to some civilian casualties of Iraqi Kurds, and this angered the Kurdish population of Iraq."

Hannes Artens comments regularly on Kurdistan. His WPR Briefings can be found here.

ممثلو تركمان العراق في أوروبا يلتقون مع نواب اوروبيين أعضاء في البرلمان الأوربي








ممثلو تركمان العراق في أوروبا يلتقون مع نواب اوروبيين أعضاء في البرلمان الأوربي

في أعقاب أخر عمل إجرامي بغيض، وقع في كركوك يوم 5 سبتمبر 2011 ، والذي استهدف حياة  الدكتور يلدريم  عباس ده ميرجي،  طبيب تركماني مشهور  وجراح متخصص في أمراض الجملة العصبية الذي كان من أبرز الجراحين المتخصصين في هذا الميدان ليس في العراق فقط  بل في المنطقة كلها   والذي أسفر عن استشهاده برفقة شقيقه المرحوم  زين عابدين  أمام منزل عائلتهم في كركوك .



 لقد ندد  ممثلو تركمان العراق في أوربا وعلى رأسهم ممثلا الجبهة التركمانية العراقية في الاتحاد الأوربي وفي بريطانيا وممثل مركز حقوق الإنسان التركماني في هولندا  وممثل جمعية الصداقة الأوربية التركمانية في بلجيكا لانعدام الأمن في المناطق التركمانية في شمال العراق وارتأت على إثارة هذا الموضوع ومسألة عمليات القتل المستهدفة للتركمان في العراق منذ 9 نيسان 2003 إلى هذا اليوم  في البرلمان الأوروبي في بروكسل.



كان المرحوم  الدكتور عباس يلدريم  ده ميرجي  جراحا تركمانيا بارزا وكان يحظى باحترام و تقدير كبيرين  من قبل جميع  مكونات محافظة  كركوك.

 
يأتي
اغتيال الدكتور يلدريم عباس ده ميرجي في أعقاب سلسلة طويلة من عمليات القتل والخطف المستهدف  إلى المثقفين والمهنيين  والى رجال الأعمال و السياسيين التركمان في العراق منذ عام 2003  و التي تكاثفت في الأشهر الأخيرة  بصورة مخيفة.



 إن هذه العمليات الإجرامية ضد التركمان تهدف إلى ترويعهم وإجبار مثقفيهم إما بالتخلي عن منطقتهم و شعبهم التركماني أو التعرض  إلى الخطف أو القتل.


بال
رغم من  العدد الكبير و الهائل لعمليات القتل المستهدفة وعمليات الخطف  من أجل الفدية وكذلك عدد التفجيرات الإرهابية التي ارتكبت ضد التركمان في مختلف مناطقهم منذ 2003 إلا أنه و للأسف لم يتم حتى ألان القبض على أي  مرتكب  لأية جريمة  من هذه الجرائم كما لم يتم تحديد أية جهة مسئولة عنها.



إن الانفلات الأمني الخطير و المعاش يوميا في المناطق التركمانية في شمال العراق  إن دل على شيء فإنه  يدل دون أدنى  شك على عدم  التزام السلطات المحلية في المناطق التركمانية  التي لا تزال تحت النفوذ الكردي و تحت سيطرة المليشيات الكردية( ألبيشمركه)  لواجباتها ولمسئولياتها تجاه  التركمان ولعدم وجود إرادة لديهم لضمان أمن التركمان  و صيانة حقوقهم الإنسانية الأساسية.



  ولسوء حظ التركمان في العراق فإن سلطاتهم المركزية في بغداد لم تظهر التزاما اكبر لمسئولياتها تجاههم و لا إرادة أقوى من إرادة السلطات المحلية  لحمايتهم  و صيانة حقوقهم الأساسية حيث إنها فشلت فشلا ذريعا  في استتاب الأمن في المناطق التركمانية وفي  ملاحقة المجرمين الذين  يرتكبون الجرائم ضد التركمان يوميا والقبض عليهم.

إن ما يزيد في الطين بله هو استمرار رفض السلطات المركزية في بغداد  طلبات العون و نداءات النجدة التي يقدمها ويطلقها  المسئولون التركمان إلى الحكومة المركزية و خاصة طلبهم اليها  الموافقة على تشكيل قوة أمنية خاصة من التركمان  لحماية المناطق التركمانية ، على غرار ميليشيات البشمركة  في المناطق الكردية وميليشيات الصحوة في المناطق العربية الذي أدى إلى يأس التركمان من جدية السلطات المحلية في حمايتهم  وكذلك من تعنت السلطات  المركزية قي بغداد في رفض طلباتهم الأمنية  وتركهم  دون حماية  في مناطق سكناهم و لهذا السبب فقد  شجب ممثليهم  داخل العراق و خارجه سياسة الحكومة العراقية تجاههم في موضوع صيانة الأمن في المناطق التركمانية.



بصفتي كممثل للجبهة التركمانية العراقية في الاتحاد الأوربي  سعيت منذ البداية إلى إيصال صوت و معانات  الشعب التركماني في العراق إلى مسامع صانعي السياسة الخارجية في الاتحاد الأوربي و أصحاب القرار فيه حيث كتبت إلى جميع أعضاء لجنة العلاقات الخارجية و لجنة حقوق الإنسان التابعين للبرلمان الأوربي عدة مرات شارحا لهم في كل مرة الوضع المأساوي المستمر الذي يعيشه التركمان في العراق كنتيجة لسياسة التمييز العنصري المتبع ضدهم منذ عقود  ولسياسة التهميش المطبق عليهم من قبل المحتلين و حلفائهم المحليين في الشمال العراقي  لأسباب جيو إستراتيجية و اقتصادية  منذ سقوط  النظام في العراق في مارس 2003.



كنتيجة للجهود أعلاه فقد لقيت نداءاتي أذانا صاغية و تعاطفا ملحوظا من بعض أعضاء اللجنتين المذكورتين و خاصة من أعضاء لجنة حقوق الإنسان للبرلمان الأوربي و في مقدمتهم نائب رئيس اللجنة السيد متين كزاك  من بلغاريا، الذي اقتنع بخطورة الوضع المعاش من قبل التركمان في العراق و استقبلني في مقره في البرلمان الأوربي عدة مرات لمتابعة تطورات الوضع التركماني و أخرها كانت في 22 حزيران الماضي حين اخبرني انه سوف يقيم جلسة خاصة للجنة حقوق الإنسان في البرلمان الأوربي  للاستماع إلى شكاوي التركمان على لسان ممثليهم و ذلك سيكون على الأرجح في بداية تشرين الأول 2011  طالبا مني تزويده بأسماء من أراه كفؤا للقيام بهذه المهمة من التركمان  مع السيرة الذاتية لكل واحد منهم.

بعد ألعطله الصيفية و مباشرة البرلمانيين الأوربيين عملهم في بروكسل بداية هذا الشهر و خاصة بعد الجريمة النكراء التي ارتكبت بداية هذا الأسبوع والتي استهدفت حياة الشهيد الدكتور يلدرم عياس شعرت بضرورة التدخل السريع و الاتصال مع السيد متين كزاك  لإشعاره بهذه الجريمة الجديدة و التباحث معه حول الجلسة التي وعدني سابقا بتنظيمها في الشهر القادم.



في نفس الوقت أخبرتني السيده سندس ساقي ممثلة الجبهة التركمانية العراقية في بريطانيا بانها حصلت على موعد للقاء السيد متين كزاك   يوم الخميس الموافق 8 ايلول الجاري و كذلك السيد شيت جرجيس و اتفقنا على الذهاب إلى لقاءه سويا على شكل وفد تركماني حيث رافقتنا كذلك السيده ميري فيتزجيرلد رئيسة جمعية الصداقة الاوربية التركمانية في بلجيكا.                                  

         
هذا وقد أستقبللنا السيد متين كازك ،نائب رئيس لجنة حقوق الانسان في البرلمان الاوربي،  لمناقشة الوضع الراهن للتركمان في العراق و اخبرنا بأنه لاسياب طارئة قد اضطر لتاجيل انعقاد الجلسه الخاصه للاستماع  الى شكاوي التركمان في البرلمان الاوربي التي كانت مبرمجة لبداية الشهر القادم الى شهر تشرين الثاني او الى كانون الاول القادم,



 و التقى الوفد أيضآ بالنائب في البرلمان الاوربي السيد اسماعيل ارتوغ الذي أكد لنا دعمه المتواصل لقضية التركمان.

كما بحث وفدنا السبل الكفيلة لإيصال معانات التركمان إلى المجتمع العالمي مع السيد أندرو  سوان مدير برامج منظمة الشعوب و الدول الغير الممثلة في الامم المتحدة  في UNPO بروكسل .

 
وشمل الوفد كل من :
-- ممثل الجبهة التركمانية العراقية في الاتحاد الأوروبي الدكتور حسن أيدنلى
-- ممثلة الجبهة التركمانية العراقية في المملكة المتحدة السيدة سندس عباس
-- رئيس جمعية حقوق الانسان التركماني
SOITM في هولندا الدكتور شيث جرجيس هولندا

Iraqi Turkmen representatives in Europe denounce the lack of security for the Turkmen community in Iraq


Iraqi Turkmen representatives in Europe denounce the lack of security for the Turkmen community in Iraq 

In the wake of the latest abominable criminal act that took place in Kirkuk on 5th September 2011, which targeted Dr. Yildirim Abbas Demirci and resulted in his killing together with his brother Mr. Zaynelabideen Abbas Demirci in front of their family home in Kerkuk, the Iraqi Turkmen Front representatives and the Iraqi Turkmen human rights and civil society activists in Europe denounced the lack of security in the Turkmen region of Iraq and raised the issue of the targeted killings of the Turkmens at the European Parliament in Brussels.

Dr. Yildirim Abbas Demirci was an eminent Turkmen neurosurgeon who was greatly respected for his professionalism and dedication to his patients.

The assassination of Dr. Yildirim Abbas Demirci follows a long series of targeted killings and abducting of Turkmen intellectuals, professionals and businessmen since 2003. These criminal acts against the Turkmen community have intensified lately, they are aiming at terrorizing this community and forcing their intellectuals either to abandon their region or be kidnapped or killed.

Despite the numerous crimes and targeted killings which have been committed against the Turkmens, to-date, not a single perpetrator of these acts has been arrested or identified.

This demonstrates the lack of commitment or will by the local authorities - which are still controlled by the Kurds - and the lack of will by the central government to protect the Turkmens and track and arrest the authors of these crimes.

Turkmens have addressed multiple demands to the central government to obtain the means and the authorization to form a security force to protect their community, similar to the Peshmerga militia in the Kurdish region and the Sahwa militia in the Arab region, to-date, the central government has remained deaf to Turkmen demands, leaving them the only community in Iraq without any adequate protection.

Iraqi Turkmen Front EU representative Dr. Hassan Aydinli having informed in the past the Members of the Foreign Affairs Committee as well as the Members of the Human Rights Subcommittee at the European Parliament about the continued violations of Turkmens’ Human Rights in Iraq since 2003, the Vice-Chairman of Subcommittee on Human Rights at the European Parliament MEP Metin Kazak received him on 22nd June 2011 to examine the situation and discuss the matter. 

MEP Metin Kazak having understood the gravity of the situation promised he would put the Turkmen issue on the agenda and that he would organize a Hearing of Turkmen Representatives in front of the Committee of Human Rights at the EU Parliament.

In order to confer about the Hearing a delegation representing the Turkmens in Europe was received on 8th September 2011 by Mr. Metin Kazak, MEP at the European Parliament.

The Turkmen delegation was composed of:

- Iraqi Turkmen Front representative in the European Union Dr. Hassan Aydinli
- Iraqi Turkmen Front representative in the United Kingdom Mrs. Sundus Abbas
- SOITM Chairman Dr. Sheth Jerjis, The Netherlands
- Europe-Turkmen Friendships Director Mrs. Merry Fitzgerald, Belgium.


 

The Turkmen delegation has also met MEP Ismail Ertug who assured them of his continued support to the Turkmen cause.

The delegation was also received by Mr. Andrew Swan, Programme Manager at UNPO in Brussels. to discuss the modalities of the upcoming Turkmen Hearing at the EU Parliament.

Kerkük’te önceki akşam kimliği belirsiz kişilerin düzenlediği silahlı saldırı sonucu öldürülen ünlü Türkmen doktor Yıldırım Abbas ve kardeşi Zeynel Abidin bugün Kerkük’e bağlı Dakuk İlçesinde toprağa verildi

Irak’ın Kerkük kentinde önceki akşam kimliği belirsiz kişi yada kişilerin düzenlediği silahlı saldırı sonucu öldürülen ünlü Türkmen doktor Yıldırım Abbas ve kardeşi Zeynel Abidin bugün Kerkük’e bağlı Dakuk İlçesinde toprağa verildi.

CENAZE TÖRENİNE ÇOK SAYIDA KERKÜKLÜ YETKİLİ KATILDI

Cenaze törenine başta Irak Türkmen Cephesi Başkan Yardımcısı Ali Haşim Muhtaroğlu ve Kerkük il meclisi başkanı Hasan Turan olmak üzere Kerkük’teki devlet yetkilileri ile polis müdürleri ve doktorlar katıldı.

Cenazeye katılanlar Türkmenlere yönelik saldırıları kınadılar. Cenaze namazı Kerkük’teki El Zahra Hüseyniyesinde kılındı. Kerkük Doktorlar Sendikası Başkanı Muhsin Abdulmecid ile Kerkük Polis Genel Müdür Yardımcısı General Turhan Abdurrahman yaptıkları açıklamada teröre lanet yağdırdılar.

ITC Başkan yardımcısı Ali Haşim Muhtaroğlu, ‘Doktor Abbas’ın öldürülmesi tüm Irak için büyük bir kayıptır’ Irak hükümeti her zaman Türkmenleri korumakta etkisiz kaldı ve bu olaylara seyirci kalması Türkmen milletinin kafasında soru işareti yarattı’ dedi.
