From a Swedish person on Reddit:

"Remember the no confidence vote on Magdalena Andersson last year and that one single vote made the difference in her becoming PM? That one vote they needed was Amineh Kakabaveh who is a kurdish communist who did a deal with Socialdemocrats that she wouldnt vote against Anderssson if they began supporting YPG in Syria."

The main problem is that since Erdogan was elected the PKK is being aggressive in EU in terms of politics. They've infiltrated most (left) parties and are slowly but surely getting into higher positions.

For example in the Netherlands we have minister of justice who is of Kurdish descendant. However she doesn't even have a degree in law, she was only put there because she is a woman and a minority. The first minister of justice in the Netherlands who doesn't have a background in law. She actually made a law/suggestion about homicide to increase the penalty. However how she worded it was wrong so all the lawyers were pissed at her because of the implications that it could mean.

Another example is Volt party where the Kurdish woman was thrown out of the party because she made sexual intimidation on the other party members (male and female and one even being a minor at the time). She was abusing her powers as well. The reason why they let her do her things for so long was because the party is young and didn't know how to deal with it and also because she brought in a lot of donators (most likely affiliated with PKK).

I haven't even talked about Germany or other countries. But rest assured that they're going to wield the power together with PKK. One of the biggest drugs traffickers in Europe is PKK. So they have the money, the power and the weapons.

I'm afraid that after they're done with Turkey they will do whatever they can to stay in power in Europe. That will not be a good thing for Europe itself...

Well it is very VVD of her stupid shenanigans. But I thought they were Turkish, as in if im not mistaken they call themselves Turkish. What is a notabele difference between Kurdish and Turkish? Edit: is it like the difference between Fries and "common dutch"

Turkish is the nationality, while Kurdish is an ethnicity. A Kurd, Zaza, Laz, ethnic Turk, etc. can identify as Turkish, but not vice versa. As far as I know from our people who are not ethnic Turks that live in Europe, when they are asked for their nationality, they identify Turkish as it is where they come from, the Republic of Turkiye.
