“Not a time to call for account, but a time to heal the wounds”

It’s not a time to call for account, but a time to heal the wounds, Turkey’s pro-Kurdish HDP’s co-Chair Pervin Buldan said.

“We will surely hold the government accountable for this negligence, but now is not the time to call for account, it is time to heal our wounds”, Buldan said, commenting on the devastating earthquakes that hit Turkey on Monday.

Stating that all HDP units have canceled their programs, Buldan said "The HDP has declared mobilization until this pain subsides, people reunite with their relatives, and the injured recover,” Arti Gercek reported.

Calling on for solidarity, “This is a humanitarian duty," she said.

Drawing attention to the seriousness of the housing problem to be experienced tonight, Buldan appealed to the public for help regarding the housing and nutrition problems of the citizens who were left outside.
