Motion · S5M-19391 · 10 Oct 2019
Support for the Kurdish People
The motion
That the Parliament believes that the Kurdish people and their troops are taking an immensely important role against ISIS and other extremist organisations, enduring a considerable sacrifice in their efforts; condemns President Trump’s recent announcement that he is withdrawing United States' military personnel and expertise from this conflict and his reluctance to continue to support the Kurdish people, whom, until recently, were considered to be a key ally, and urges the Scottish Government to clearly state to President Erdogan of Turkey what it believes is Scotland’s abhorrence at the bombing of innocent civilians in northern Syria.
