Sarah Glynn Through war and law Turkey aims to make no country safe for Kurds – a weekly news review

Turkey is preparing to invade northern Iraq and northern Syria, and the “international community” remains silent. This week’s review focuses on Turkish plans for Iraq, where the Development Road Project may be used as an excuse to destroy autonomous administration in Makhmour and Şengal; on fears of Turkish invasion and ISIS revival in North and East Syria; and on the growing criminalisation of Kurds in Europe, where international power games are trumping basic rights and freedoms.
