LONDON – Kurds in the United Kingdom are protesting in the streets, urging the British government to speak up in support of Afrin, an issue that has drawn little attention in the UK.
“We have urged the Labour Party to place pressure on Theresa May and the British government in order for them to pressure Erdogan to end the incursion,” a Kurdish protester said.
Former Scottish First Minister Jack McConnell said the world owes the Kurds their support after Kurdish forces faced ISIS on the frontlines.
