“Today’s meeting – commented Mayor Leoluca Orlando – in fact confirms the attention and commitment of solidarity of the municipal administration for the cause of the Kurdish people. The next year – concludes the mayor of Palermo – we will organize a series of initiatives aimed at keeping the attention on the systematic violation of the Kurdish people’s human rights and to reaffirm our commitment in defense of the rights of the Kurds and of Ocalan, which I repeat my concern about his state of health as a political prisoner ”
