Turkish CHP Leader Warns: Hayat Tahrir al-Sham Could Become Like Afghan Taliban

Ozgur Ozel, the leader of Turkey’s Republican People’s Party (CHP), has warned against the Erdogan government’s support for the rulers of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham. Ozel stated that if Turkey continues to support them unconditionally, a new disaster will occur. Drawing parallels with Afghanistan, Ozel urged the Turkish government to support a democratic regime in Syria chosen by the people.

Ozel emphasized that their proposal and support are for a democratic regime in Syria based on the people’s vote. He added that the Erdogan government’s support for Hayat Tahrir al-Sham is similar to its support for the Afghan Taliban.

The CHP leader further noted that the Taliban were initially moderate but are now even seeking to ban radio broadcasts. Ozel warned that if Turkey continues its unconditional support for Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a new disaster will ensue.
