	ANKARA - HDP Antep MP Mahmut Toğrul who reminded that the AKP government used ISIS as a means of intimidating the opposition and said that they witnessed the massacres of ISIS whose responsibility was assumed by Turkey.

	HDP Antep MP Mahmut Toğrul evaluated the fact that the prisons ISIS members are being kept were bombed and the responsibility of the prisons were given to Turkey.

	 

	Toğrul, stating that the fact that Turkey accepted the responsibility of the ISIS prisoners did not surprise them, said: "What did Turkey do with ISIS? WHat was their aim? Turkey considered Kurds having a status a matter of survival. Therefore they tought it was acceptable to be in relation with everyone including ISIS. And they exploited this relations so badly that they implemented an open border policy for Turkey's border with Syria after the Syrian civil war.

	 

	Toğrul, reminding that ISIS members have crossed the borders over Turkey to Syria and they attacked the opposition in Turkey the same way, said: "The common point of all these massacres was that, Antep was used as a passage. We have witnessed that they openly and blatantly massacred people."

	 

	 

	Toğrul pointing out that the AKP has a political understanding that chooses to be neighbors of ISIS instead of Kurds at the border, said: "Look, when those districts were controlled by ISIS, millions of dolars worth of trade was being done at the border gates. When the Kurds defeated ISIS in KObané and in other cities, the trade ended. Those gangs have changed their looks, cut off their beards and named 'Free Syrian Army' after that. And now they are allies with Turkey under the name Syrian National Army. All the peoples in Turkey are in grave danger. Turkey assuming responsibility for the ISIS prisoners does not guarantee anyone's safety. The words Minister of Interrior Süleyman Soylu is a confession. Our call to the peoples of the world is that everyone should be alert. A greater danger is waiting for us. ISIS gangs are not completely depleted. Turkey is in no position to assume this responsibility nor they intend to do that."
