Imamoglu: West’s silence against my arrest

According to RCO News Agency, Istanbul’s detainee mayor Akram Imam Khlu, publishing a note in the New York Times, expressed frustration with the silence of Western countries and described it as “a silent silence”.

“What did governments do around the world?” Their silence is destructive. Washington only expressed concern about recent arrests and protests in Türkiye. “Except for a few exceptions, European leaders have not responded strongly.”

Imamoglu emphasized that after his arrest, Social-Democratic leaders and cities from Türkiye and other countries, as well as civil society institutions, had declared their support.

Referring to the strategic importance of Turkey in recent years, he warned that “geopolitics should not blind us to the erosion of values ​​and human rights abuses.”

On the other hand, Turkish Minister of Justice Yilmaz Tonch, in response to criticism on Thursday, regretted that some international figures have considered Imamoglu’s arrest to be political. He rejected the allegation again, saying that the statements were “misleading and contrary to the rule of law.”

Imamoglu, one of the main rivals of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for the presidential election, was arrested on March 5 that he was arrested on March 5, and was arrested on March 5.

More than 5 people are prosecuted in the case, some of whom are senior officials in Istanbul. The Hulk TV television network reported that Imamoglu intends to protest the ruling. The Sabah newspaper also wrote that the Istanbul Prosecutor General will also refer to the Turkish Constitutional Court to the Turkish Constitutional Court to reject Imamoglu’s arrest in the case of terrorism.
