No: 287, 29 October 2018, Press Release Regarding the Release of Dimistris Kufodinas, a Member of the November 17 Terrorist Organization, on a Furlough Once Again

Republic Of Türkiye Ministry Of Foreign Affairs 29.10.2018

We strongly condemn that the Greek authorities have granted release to Dimitris Kufodinas, a convicted member of the November 17 terrorist organization, on a furlough once again.

The release of a terrorist who claimed lives of our diplomats is disrespectful to their memories and to their bereaved families.

We would like to underline once again that allowing a notorious terrorist to benefit from such arrangements does not comply withcountering terrorism.
